# Canine Coastal Walks
Canine Coastal Walks is a dog walking and pet care service based in Torquay, operating across the wider Torbay area including Paignton and Newton Abbot. Founded by Meg, an animal behaviour enthusiast with a BSc in Psychology, the business specialises in providing enriching coastal adventures and expert care for dogs of all temperaments.
What sets CCW apart is Meg's deep commitment to canine welfare and behaviour. She has completed specialist courses through the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT), including recent training in canine adolescence, enabling her to manage complex behavioural needs within group settings. She particularly welcomes misunderstood breeds—mastiffs, bull breeds, shepherds and XL bullies—bringing professional expertise to dogs that others may struggle with.
The service philosophy centres on boosting confidence through varied experiences with people, places and other dogs. Walks incorporate scent-driven games, beach exploration and forest adventures, with the goal of creating calmer, more well-rounded companions. Meg also specialises in managing fear reactivity in adult dogs, using positive reinforcement to build emotional regulation and reliability.
With first aid training, PetPlan insurance, a clean driving record and extensive experience volunteering across South Coast rescues and rehoming centres, she brings both credentials and genuine passion to every interaction. Group walks run Monday to Friday across three time slots (8:30-11am, 11:30am-2pm, 2:30-4pm), alongside solo walks and pet sitting services focused on the local Torquay area.
