Walk Your Dog in the Dales

Book Cover

After a long walk my favourite dog is a large Bordeaux Collie. It makes a change from ‘Hair of the Dog’ brew dog beer and Laika,  a fine Russian Imperial Stout named after the first dog to orbit the earth.

We get rolling stones at Brimham rocks and on the East Coast, both great places to take your dog for a walk. Perhaps when you are out walking you already chant like Mick Jagger…………….

‘Baby back, dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High hose, tippy toes
She broke the needle and she can sew

Walking the dog
I’m just a walking the dog
If you don’t know how to do it I’ll show you how to walk the dog
C’mon now c’mon’

Her Master’s Walks in Wharfedale by Stephen I. Robinson is one of a series of books on Swaledale, Wensleydale, the Hambleton Hills and Wharfedale.

For other ideas on where to walk your dog read one of Rob Godfrey’s Dog Walker’s Guides. There are books on walks with dogs in Debyshire, The Peak District, Lancashire and of course Yorkshire.
