Walking dogs in TQ9, honestly.

Written dog walker to dog walker. This is the ground truth the apps and lead sites have never stood in — at six in the morning, in the rain.

The doors. Take Totnes and follow any lane out of it: village homes first, then the one-offs — retired couples with terriers, commuters with retrievers, farms with their own rules. An acre of garden still isn't a walk — country dogs need the lane time and the sniff work same as any, and the owners who understand that keep a walker for years. New faces arrive at a steady drip — 313 completions in the latest recorded year — and none of them bring a dog walker with them.

The parking. An unlocked field gate and a gravel sweep count as access out here; the real puzzle is the route plan. Tractors, floods and gateway mud all get a vote — a padded schedule keeps every dog's hour honest. No shortage of ground out here — the skill is reading it: which lanes flood, which fields carry sheep, where the ground holds a pack safely.

The round. The round in TQ9 works around Totnes, Bridgetown, Cott, Bickham and Grimpstonleigh. Around 8,894 households live here, and the ones who take a dog walker keep them — five days a week, term time and holidays, years on end. That's not a lead list — that's a round, built once and kept.
