Places to stop with the dog on long journeys

Posted on Monday, 11th July 2011 - 11:39pm in Articles by Lezli

Long journeys can be stressful for many reasons, and especially if you have energetic kids or a dog on board.

On Driving with Dogs you'll find all sorts of different places to stop and take the dog for a walk.

There are dog walks all over the country, some long and some short - but all fully tried and tested for dogs by our tireless collie, Jem!

Many of the walks are great for kids too, with info about play places and adventure playgrounds, and Go Ape centres.

The motorway walks for dogs and drivers cover all the UK motorways. These dog walks are within 5 miles of every motorway junction, and all have been tried and tested by Jem and the DwD team.

All the walks have directions to a safe parking place - and a dog-friendly pub or cafe nearby.

Our book, 'Walking the Dog: walks for drivers and dogs' is published by the RAC and available from the RAC bookshop http://www.racshop.co.uk/rac-books.html

MOTORWAY WALKS - The Book

With nearly 200 walks from the Driving with Dogs website, this handy little book is an ideal guide to the best dog-friendly pubs and dog walks within 5 miles of UK motorway exits.

Like the website walks, you'll also find information about campervan access, disabled facilities, kids' activities, safe parking places, sat-nav codes and written route directions too.

Walking the Dog: Motorway Walks for dogs and drivers is available from the RAC shop (link URL http://www.racshop.co.uk/rac-books.html) and all the usual online bookstores such as amazon.

If your local bookstore doesn't have a copy in stock, you can order by quoting the ISBN number: 978-1-845841-02-7
