# DogRunners - Brentwood Dog Walking & Training
DogRunners is a specialist dog care business founded by Gary in 2011, offering dog walking, training, boarding and rescue services across Brentwood and surrounding areas including Collier Row, Gidea Park, Havering, Harold Hill and Hainault.
Gary's unique approach centres on group dog walks in country park locations, where dogs receive a minimum of one hour's exercise covering at least two miles. Rather than simple walking, these sessions incorporate free positive reinforcement training to improve behaviour, socialisation skills and calmness. All dogs—regardless of size or temperament—travel in air-conditioned transport and return home clean, with training, pick-up and drop-off included in the walk price.
What truly sets DogRunners apart is Gary's personal involvement; he doesn't employ other walkers, meaning every dog receives direct care from the owner himself. This hands-on approach provides peace of mind for dog owners. His training philosophy explicitly avoids harmful methods such as prong collars or e-collars, relying exclusively on treat-based positive techniques.
Gary holds multiple professional qualifications including Certified Dog Trainer, Certified Loose Lead Walking, Canine Communication Diploma, Certified Enrichment and Pet First Aid certification. The business maintains a 5-star rating on both Facebook and Google, with customer testimonials reflecting satisfaction with the service quality and results.
Ideal for busy professionals unable to provide adequate daytime exercise, and owners seeking affordable, effective training alongside regular care, DogRunners caters to all breeds and temperaments.
