If That's A Big Fat YES! Go Run And Get Your Owner First...

This will be the bestest fun you'll have during the week.

You'll be out on super fun adventures with me and my mates - exploring, sniffing, playing, and chasing each other about. We only do group walks that last an hour, so you'll make loads of new friends and be proper tired when you get back!

Dogs running on a morning walk

Morning Walkies

We kick off the day with the morning walk. It starts at 9.30 after the stupid morning traffic has died down a bit. Then the mutt truck spins into action whisking us away to fields of fun.

9:30am Mon–Fri

Mid-Morning Walkies

The next walk is around 11.30 and we're off to pastures green. There's loads of good walks about once we're out of town, and our friendly driver just knows where to find them.

11:30am Mon–Fri
Dogs splashing on an afternoon walk

Afternoon Walkies

The last walk of the day is the early afternoon session. This starts at 1.30 or thereabouts. And we are about, about everywhere and anywhere. Sniffing and searching, chasing and a playing.

1:30pm Mon–Fri

All pups are welcome, but he's got a few rules that you'll have to stick to. If you think that you can manage them, then you're all set!

You've got to be able to keep up with all of us, and enjoy long walks. We've still got one of the original crew! She's 15yrs old now and still out playing! So there's no age restriction — just as long as you're still enjoying it.

There's a maximum of six of us on each walk so you've got to get along with us all and play good. We're all really friendly and there's never any bother.

You don't have to be gun dog trained (I'm not!) but you'll be off lead so you've got to pretend to know your own name and try and make an effort to come back if he calls you!

We're out every weekday come rain or shine. The only time when we don't go out is if there's thunder and lightning, or if it's really hot.

Meet My Human, He's Called Ian.

This is him. Not as photogenic as me is he, and I've got way more hair! He started This Way Pup back in 2012, all thanks to his first puppy, Luca. If it weren't for Luca destroying expensive trainers, chewing skirting boards, eating kids' toys, and protest pooping when left alone, This Way Pup might never have come to be!

So yeah, us pups owe everything to Luca - the original gangster pup! After a few months of puppy mayhem, Ian decided to quit his job and become a dog walker… just to get Luca some friends to run around with, so hopefully he'd be too tired to wreck the house.

If your humans aren't quite as daft as him and can't just quit their jobs to go walk you, don't worry. Get them to sign you up for some weekday fun anyway!

My Roxy loves, loves, loves coming out with the THIS WAY PUPS! It's the highlight of her week and she always comes back happy and worn out. I totally recommend Ian if your doggy needs some weekday fun.

Questions Your Owners Might Have.

If they've got any other queries just get them to contact Ian and he'll get back to them sharpish!

When we get to your home he'll let himself in using a key or key safe — your owners don't need to be home. Then we're off to pick up the rest of the gang before heading out for an hour of fun in the fields.

By the time he's picked everyone up and dropped them all back, we're out of the house a good while longer than an hour. When you get home he'll towel you down if you're muddy or wet (he's no dog groomer though!) and make sure you've got water, and if your owners have left food out he'll sort that too.

We collect from Banbury and surrounding villages within a five mile radius. Not sure if we cover your street? Just drop Ian a message and he'll let you know.

It's £14 for one doggy, £26 for two, or £33 if three of you are coming out together. The walks last for an hour which is plenty - we're running each other ragged, playing and exploring. You'll be out the house a good while longer though, depending on where we're going and who we're picking up. And if you're out every weekday, ask Ian about weekly rates!

Easy! Just message Ian with the days you need, where you live and how many of you will be coming out. Or give him a call.

He'll then arrange a free meet-and-greet with me and we'll take it from there. Once we're all happy there's a few forms to fill out. Then that's it — you're part of the THIS WAY PUP Crew. Cool huh!?

Yeah you'll take to it really quickly. We'll come round to yours and take you out on a free test run with me first. Then once that goes ok, you're ready to join the pack.

Yes! Ian is fully insured and has been walking dogs professionally since 2012, so you can relax knowing you're in safe hands. He's also CRB checked and has completed a doggy first aid course. He's never needed it yet, but he is good at getting thorns out of paws though!

Nope! If your humans need to cancel just get them to let Ian know and that's it — no fuss, no fees. He's not like that.

I'll get him to send them over a video of us having a blast on the first few walks. They can ask for a video or picture whenever they like, but the proof of the pudding will be how happy you are when you get home. You won't see us on social media — he hates all that. He has got a Facebook page, I think it was last updated in 2019.

He's got a Ford S-Max MPV which has all the seats removed and we're all safe and secure when travelling about.

Get in touch with Ian and he'll get back to you as soon as he can.
