How to Start a Dog Walking Club

Dogs need alot of excersize as they are active animals who enjoy running around in fields. Unfortunately, some of the elderly can't walk them every day for different causes, you can help! Read these tips on how to start a club of people who walk dogs, It is a lot of fun!

Read a wikihow article on how to make a club to start you off, this will give you the basic steps to making a club, then you can move on to the dog walking situation.

Now, that you have read articles, It is time to start the dog walking, first thing first:

• Do you know how to walk dogs and are you good with them, this is required as dogs are pets that need a lot of care, and you will have to be used to handling them.
• You can workout your plans of how much money it will take for how long you walk. For example, 2 miles could be 2 euro/dollars... I will explain why at the 'where the money goes to' section.
• When you go to houses to walk peoples dog, make sure you make a list of all the adresses so you know where to find them next.

Tips

• You could advertise your service on a flyer or you could stick them to trees, laminate it if you are making signs as natural forces can cause damage to it and there is nothing you can do about that.
• Write down dogs names, so you wont forget.
• Take some doggy treats and maybe a foodbowl and a bottle of water for those really hot days or even if your dog seems to be panting from exaustion.

Warnings

• Be prepared - you would never know if a little/big, cute/vicios, sleepy/jumpy kind of dog would come running out that door, and please don't freak if he nibbles your finger. Nobody will want you to walk their dog then.
• If you feel the dog is feeling bad, or injured, don't try and cure it, call a vet or someone that could help.
