Dog Walking in Spring Weather

As we step into Spring, the weather still doesn’t know how it is going to behave, wet, muggy, even snowy, so our dog walking in Spring weather may continue to resemble the Autumn and Winter months. 

One thing we can do to help make our dog walks a tad jollier & cleaner is to make sure we either take with us an old towel for the dog/s or some handy wipes!

These are, in our opinion, invaluable.  (If you take a towel in the car, it may be worth also taking a bag to put it into once it’s been used, as it could be a tad dirty!)

Another tip for helping keep our dog/s clean on walks is to buy them a dog coat!  Yeah, I know, it’s no longer winter, however there are some pretty fabulous dog coats available, that don’t make your dog too hot or sweaty.  Like this coat for example:
