The Essence of Our Dog Walks
Beyond the Ordinary - Solo and Group Walk Adventures
At Samantha Wayland Dog Training, our dog walks, whether solo or in small groups, are crafted to be much more than just a routine outing. Each walk is an adventure, carefully designed to cater to your dog's individual needs and preferences. Solo walks offer a personalised experience, perfect for dogs who thrive on undivided attention or require a bit more peace and quiet. On the other hand, our small group walks are ideal for social butterflies, allowing them to interact and play with fellow canine friends in a safe and controlled environment. Both options are not just about physical exercise; they're about providing mental stimulation, joy, and a sense of adventure for your beloved pet.
How Training Walks Work
Step 1: Schedule Your Introduction Call
Step 2: Arrange a 'Meet and Greet' Session
Step 3: Embark on Your Solo or Group Walks
Begin your journey by arranging an initial call with Samantha. This conversation is your opportunity to share your dog's unique personality, preferences, and any specific needs they might have. You'll gain valuable insights immediately, and together, you'll plan the best approach for your dog's walks. This initial chat is crucial for understanding your dog's individuality and preparing for their enjoyable walking experience.
After your initial discussion, we'll set up a 'Meet and Greet' session. This is the perfect chance for Samantha to meet your dog in a relaxed setting, get to know their behaviour, and for both of you to feel comfortable with each other. This step is essential to ensure that the walking experience, whether solo or in a group, is perfectly suited to your dog's temperament and needs.
With everything in place, it's time to start the walks. In these sessions, your dog will either enjoy the undivided attention of a solo walk or the playful companionship of a small group walk, depending on your preference and their needs. These walks are not just about physical exercise; they're about providing a stimulating, enjoyable, and safe experience for your dog, guided by Samantha's expertise and tailored to the goals established in your initial call.
