# Bimbles Dog Adventures
Bimbles Dog Adventures is a specialised dog walking and training service based in Barnstaple, North Devon, dedicated to working with dogs that have behavioural challenges. The business caters specifically to owners struggling with reactive, aggressive, nervous or troublesome dogs—animals that many standard dog walkers won't accept.
What sets Bimbles apart is their refusal to turn away difficult cases. Their philosophy centres on individual, tailored care rather than one-size-fits-all group walks. Each session combines physical exercise with mental enrichment and positive reinforcement training, incorporating activities like treat finding, scent work and trick training (sit, wait, watch me) to build confidence and calm engagement.
The team works collaboratively with owners to reinforce existing training protocols during walks, recognising that behavioural issues require consistency and understanding rather than judgement. Their flexible service options—from 30-minute sessions for dogs who need shorter outings to recurring 45-minute visits for those requiring extra preparation before venturing into the world—demonstrate genuine responsiveness to individual needs.
Operating Monday to Saturday, 10am–4pm, they offer an initial home visit to assess each dog properly. This personalised approach ensures handlers understand the dog's specific triggers, fears and requirements before any walk begins. By combining professional dog walking with genuine behavioural support, Bimbles fills a crucial gap for owners whose dogs need more than standard exercise provision.
