Gosh, you lot carry a lot!

I usually take just my dogs, their leads unless we are walking straight from home, and a ball on a rope. No point taking my mobile phone, as I don't have reception in most of the places I walk and don't need poo bags in the middle of the countryside either If I go to the beach or country park etc then I do take poo bags.

I carry a spare lead because we once went for a walk and Rich put the lead down whilst we played frisbee then walked off and forgot about it. It was in long grass and when we realized and went back it took half an hour to find it! Plus once we'd got off the walk we had to walk along a road up get back to the car which would'vr been difficult without a lead.

Oh and we only take the water when going to the beach as salt water doesn't seem right for a dog!

I wont let them drink out of canals or stagnant water but if it's a running stream, river or looks fairly clean then i'll ok them. It's amazing how and where they find water but mine have had no ill effects either.

What age is your dog? My dogs get very varied walks in where we walk and also the length and duration. I don't think (unless your dog is a pup) there are any hard and fast rules.

He was born 01/01/08.

I walk him twice a day, 1st one being longer. I also take him to my nans daily (she live up the road). If I drive anywhere then I'll take him with me. If he is energetic before bed then I'll play fetch for a few minutes in the garden. Thats a typical day for my Prince.

No none of mine would would be attacking yours why don't you use the corrector spray ? its not perfumed .

I guess I think the smell might put 'em off too.
Plus there's the added bonus of being able to use it when we pass the sewage works and the wind it blowing the wrong way .

i normally take...


2 dogs....

sorry....


i dont always carry poo bags as i forget... but my dogs dont ever poo outside.... unless its in the rough on the fields where you cant actually pick it up anyhow!

but when i remember - poo bags..
thats it

Well at the min i currently take

poop bags
mobile if im going on a long walk ( just in case )
ball on a rope
and now im taking tissues and eye drops due to hayfever ( defo not good for dog walking )

It depends if its a road walk I take poop bags and treat bag clipped to me. My phone in my back pocket in case school need me.
If going to the park I use a little back pack which holds a water bottle a ball plus poop bags and hand gel so I can eat my sausage cob with clean hands while with a group of walkers.
Weekend walk we take a huge backpack with a packed lunch for us. Huge bottle of water and fold up dog bowls. hand gel, Tissues. wipes you name it we have it. Treat bag is always clipped on to me.
