A tired dog
is a good dog.

Ninety real minutes of off-lead running, most days of the week, so the dog you come home to is the calm one — not the one who's been saving it all up for you.

Point Chevalier, Westmere, Grey Lynn & the inner west, Auckland.

Today's issue: one dog's day

7:30 am
7:30am. The door clicks shut. He watches from the window.
10:15 am
10:15am. By now he's eyeing up the good cushion.
11:00 am !!
11:00am. The key turns. The lead comes off the hook.

No walk means a full tank of energy pointed at your skirting board — and a neighbour who's noticed.

Midday ZOOM!
Off-lead. Ninety real minutes, full pace, ears back.
splat!
Muddy. Delighted. Not the least bit sorry.
4:00 pm Z z Z
4:00pm. Flat out on the floor. Cushion: untouched.
6:00 pm
6:00pm. You walk in the door to a dog who's already had his day. That's the whole idea.

Undertired dogs don't nap. They redecorate.

You leave at 7:30am and get home around 6. That's a long day for a dog with nothing to do but wait — and a dog with a full tank of energy and no outlet is where the chewed skirting board, the 10pm zoomies and the neighbour's polite word about the barking all come from.

A dog who's had a proper run sleeps through the evening. He stops eyeing up the furniture. He stops losing his mind at the postie. He walks next to you instead of dragging you down the footpath. None of that is obedience training — it's just a tired dog being a good dog.

That takes more than a lap around the block on a lead. It takes real time, real space to run, and someone who actually shows up.

The actual walk

What "walk" actually means here

Not a fifteen-minute circuit of the block. An actual outing.

90 real minutes

Not a token ten minutes squeezed between two other jobs. A proper session, most days of the week.

Off-lead, where it's safe

Beach and bush, not pavement — full sprints, real sniffing, actual freedom to be a dog.

Never a stranger

The same person every time — someone your dog knows, not whoever the app assigned this week.

Never more than four

Small enough to actually watch every dog

Small
Medium
Medium-large

Every single walk

A photo, and a line about how he got on

Sandy, today

"Sandy had the best time — full sprint on the sand, said hi to two labradors, and she's already half asleep in the car. See you Thursday!"

Who's actually walking your dog

Hi, I'm [NAME].

Insured, qualified, and always the one who shows up.

I walk a small number of dogs around Pt Chev, Westmere and Grey Lynn, on foot, every day I say I will. No app, no rotating roster of contractors — if you book me, it's me at your door.

Fully insured, and canine first-aid trained, so if anything ever goes sideways on a walk I know exactly what to do about it.

Canine First-Aid Trained

Let's tire your dog out.

Message or call and I'll get back to you the same day, usually sooner. Tell me your dog's name, age, and how they go around other dogs.
