Bring the Dog UK!

August 31, 2013 ~ aussiedogcare

Bring the dog is a fantastic site in which anything Doggy related can have a feature ! Dog friendly places, businesses, events , charities, pubs you name it ! It is growing at approximately 100 new entries per month ! Meaning for anything dog related it is a fab find for any dog owner or company! It is like an guide book to places and businesses that are doggy friendly but they are all online ! The website is very easy to navigate around!

A bit about Bring the Dog quoted from http://bringthedog.co.uk/

“Bring the Dog ! was first published July 18th 2003 and is dedicated to the memory of our first dog Sasha.
We (Judy and Neil Cameron-Rollo) were prompted to start this site by an incident in June 2003.
While travelling back from Scotland with our dog Sasha we decided to stop at a small market town near Hadrian’s Wall for lunch. As it was a hot day we did not want to leave her in the car.We were t…ired, hungry and thirsty.
We tried three different pubs (one of which had a beer garden) and were turned away at each because we had the dog with us.Needless to say we will not be going back (unless of course one of you can recommend somewhere).
We now have two dogs (Tansy and Bella) and are still looking for places to go. With this in mind I have decided to completely revamp the site and bring everything up to date.
* All nominated establishments are be entitled to a free entry (We hope eventually to finance the running of the site by getting sponsorship and selling enhanced entries and other services to listed establishments. We are prepared to carry the costs for the time being)
* It covers the entire country (We would be very pleased to get nominations for Eire as well).
* We can list as many properties as you nominate.
* It will be more current than any printed guide could hope to be.
* This site is run by a dog and its owners for dogs and their owners “

I think this website is a fabulous idea! So if you have a business or a place please place a listing !

Aussie Dog Care have placed a free entry and here it is – http://bringthedog.co.uk/aussie-dog-care/

Three Shires Head Walk

August 29, 2013August 29, 2013 ~ aussiedogcare

Three Shires Head is a fantastic walk in the peak district to do with family , dogs or just by yourself .

Below information quoted from http://walkpeakdistrict.com/three-shires-head/

“Need-to-know

Free parking (car park has three picnic tables, but no toilet facilities; no height restriction; no overnight parking or camping). Sadly, there’s NO PUBLIC TRANSPORT to this location.
4½ miles (7¼ kilometres) circular walk
2 to 2½ hours at a leisurely pace
Mixed terrain (including rough rocky tracks, and boggy ground after rain); not suitable for wheelchair users or for pushchairs.
4 stiles (including one ladder stile)

Getting there

Start and finish at Clough House Car Park (arrowed on the map below). The following may help if you use a satnav:

nearest postcode: SK11 0BD (this postcode is actually in Wildboarclough village, about 1 kilometre south of Clough House Car Park)
Latitude, Longitude: 53.225, -2.020
Ordnance Survey grid reference: SJ 987 698

Or get directions to the start from Google Maps.

About the walk

This pleasant circuit of a little over 4 miles takes you out to Three Shires Head and back. Taking in secluded river valleys, mature woodland, a couple of miniature waterfalls, open sheep pasture and heather moorland, there are also some gentle hills to stretch the legs nicely—285 metres (935 feet) ascent and descent in total. Could take as little as 1¼ hours if you don’t hang about, but on a nice day there are plenty of excuses to dally, particularly at the packhorse bridge at Three Shires Head, so allow a good 2 hours.

The route remains within Cheshire throughout, but follows the county boundary with Derbyshire, and then Staffordshire, near Three Shires Head. Technically, you could stand with one foot in Cheshire, one foot in Derbyshire, and ~~one foot~~ a hand in Staffordshire, but you’ll get very wet trying…

Alternative walks

If you like the look of this walk, why not take a look at the Shining Tor and Fernilee Reservoirwalks too?”
