I've always had a dog since the age of 4 and don't feel right without one around. My current dog is an incredibly good natured little brown cocker spaniel who loves the company of other dogs and enjoys nothing more than a walk with some of his canine pals. We live 5 minutes walk from Sefton park and 5 minutes walk from Otterspool Park so I like to give my dog and any others I look after, 2 different walks each day. Mine generally gets a 1hr walk between 8 and 9am and then at 4.30pm he gets a 1.5-2hr walk. If someone wanted walks at different times of day that too would be fine and indeed if you have a dog that prefers to walk alone that can be managed. I'd only recently moved in to the area but used to do a lot of walking when I was living in London and would love to do the same here. Dogs are move than welcome to hang out at our house during the day too as I work from home.
