Calm, structured countryside walks for small groups around Colchester.
Dave's Dogs is a small-group dog walking service based in Colchester, designed for dogs who deserve more than a rushed loop of the park. Every walk takes place in peaceful green spaces where dogs can sniff, explore, and move at their own pace, led by someone who takes the time to understand each dog individually.
This is structured dog walking, not just exercise. Group sizes are kept deliberately small, and every dog goes through a proper meet and greet before joining, so the group dynamic stays calm and every dog is genuinely known. Countryside dog walks give dogs far more to engage with than a standard housing estate route, more space, more scent, more chance to just be a dog.
Ongoing advanced study in canine behaviour training shapes how every walk is approached. Limited spaces mean a genuine focus on each dog's wellbeing, built on trust, consistency, and real care.
Why Dave's Dogs exists
I started Dave's Dogs because I'd seen too many large, chaotic group walks where dogs were simply exercised rather than properly understood. Every walk with me is built the opposite way, small numbers, real attention, and a genuine understanding of who your dog actually is.

Areas covered
To ensure that all of the dogs in my care aren’t travelling for too long, I am only able to walk dogs within the circled area on the map, including Wormingford, Fordham, West Bergholt, Aldham, Eight Ash Green, Marks Tey, Stanway and Copford. If you’re unsure whether I cover your area, just get in touch for a chat.
