Lapphund Walks:
These dog walks are an opportunity for you and your lapphund(s) to get to meet up with other lapphund owners for a relaxing and fun walk. Great for talking about dogs, meeting like-minded lapphund lovers and generally socialising. A group of lapphunds is an impressive sight, and we will attract some attention from other walkers, so please remember that we are ambassadors for the breed and “poop scoop” where necessary and follow local park guidelines. You, and not The Southern Finnish Lapphund Society, are responsible for the safety and control of your dog. Beware, most walks will involve being near farm livestock, or wild deer at some point, and lapphunds find this tempting!
The walks are not arduous, but the full walk would not be suitable for immature pups.
Please contact me, Daniel Spencer, on 01865 779243 or walks@sfls.org.uk, no later than the day before the walk to check any change in details. Whilst I am reasonably hardy, a walk in horizontal sheet rain across a wind-swept moor will never appeal! By default, I intend to be present at each walk. Aim to be present at the walk start at 11am and the walk will begin at 11:15am. Bring your own food and water for your dog!
