Dog Walking with a twist
Sensitive dogs need more than a mindless trot, they need opportunities to connect with their dogginess, move their bodies and activate their minds!
Using the power of mental stimulation, movement work and play, we tap into your dogβs innate curiosity, offering them opportunities to connect with their canine senses and build confidence while exploring the world around them.

OUR AWESOME REVIEWS πππππ
All dogs need enrichment,
so our walks are for all dogs!
But these pups find our private dog walks especially beneficial:
-
Curious Snoots was created with the sensitive dog in mind! Thereβs nothing we love more than seeing a fearful dog exploring around and discovering how awesome (and safe) life can be.
Our gentle and patient approach creates a safe space for them to be themselves, learn to trust and get curious.
After all, the best way to tackle fear is with curiosity.
-
If you have a reactive dog we know you are looking for someone who understands reactive behaviour and knows how to keep your pup happy and safe while on the walk.
We have lots of experience avoiding triggers and minimizing rehearsal of reactive behaviours. Our heavy focus on enrichment offers a whole set of tools to play with in order to keep your dog calm and engaged throughout the walk.
-
Rescue dogs go through a whole life-changing experience thatβs easy to overlook from our human experience.
I mean, after all, weβre giving them a new life full of safety, love and lots of toys!
But letβs not forget, this is still a big change theyβre going through and change is always stressful.
Thatβs why recent rescues greatly benefit from our enriched dog walks because we create a space for them to explore their new neighbourhood, taking in all the new smells while building positive experiences in their new environment.
Plus, I know youβre also still discovering who your new dog is, learning about their personality, likes and dislikes, and we LOVE sharing our observations with you! We are all discovering your new dog together!
Think of us as your βget-to-know-my-dogβ squad.
-
Our enriched dog walks are PERFECT for pups who need to take it easy due to age and/or health conditions. Since weβre so focused on enrichment we can easily adapt the walk experience to your dog needs.
Maybe we just do a little pee break and spend the rest of the time indoors doing some nosework or a little recreational training session. Or maybe we do a slow walk with lots of sniffing games along the way.
The options are endless!
Does that sound like your dog?
