SURVEY - CODE OF PRACTICE FOR COMMERCIAL DOG WALKERS

In 2016 the Kennel Club will publish its first UK-wide Code of Practice for Commercial Dog Walkers, as part of its wider work to set and raise standards to benefit land managers, dog owners and canine welfare alike.

To ensure the Code of Practice is as well-informed as possible, the Kennel Club is currently running an online survey to canvas the opinions and experiences of land and access managers. You can find the survey and more information here:

www.dogwalkersurvey.org.uk

Please also share this survey with any other relevant colleagues and contacts.

The survey runs until 5th February 2016 and takes around 15 minutes to complete.

At the end of the survey you can opt-in to obtain a summary of its results and be kept up to date on future developments. There&rsquos also the chance to win tickets to Crufts Dog Show at the NEC in Birmingham on 10th to 13 March 2016: www.crufts.org.uk

The Kennel Club would really appreciate as many people as possible completing the questionnaire, to ensure the Code of Practice is as comprehensive and relevant as possible, to reduce any conflict for all concerned.
