A
DOG’S
LIFE
With
Jennifer & Rudolph
Jennifer Beveridge and pet pooch Rudolph look forward to making
the most of Teesside’s great outdoors in 2018 – the Year of the Dog...
T
he characteristics linked to
the Chinese zodiac analysis of
The Year of the Dog include
independence, sincerity, loyalty,
responsibility, courageousness and
liveliness.
We’ve found walks and activities that
keep all of this in mind…
GET INVOLVED
With the power of social media,
it’s possible to find like-minded
individuals looking to make the
most of time with their canine
companions.
Rudolph and I recently enjoyed
a lovely long walk along Saltburn
beach with members of North East
Boston Terriers UK.
Meanwhile, Wags and Whiskers
in Stockton regularly arrange walks
and gatherings from their Stockton
café. Follow them on Facebook for
regular updates.

BLOW AWAY THE COBWEBS
With the beautiful North-East coastline
extending itself just beyond our doorstep, this
time of year can be perfect to wrap up and get
out and enjoy the fresh air.
Our local beaches at Redcar, Saltburn and
Seaton Carew are perfect places for our furry
friends to let off some steam!

of beautiful vantage points, tracks, trails,
woodland and parks to enjoy with a canine
