#The dog runner
More than just a walk
At The Dog Runner, we believe every dog deserves more than a walk — they deserve the exercise and freedom of a proper run. Based in Brighton & Hove, our team of experienced trail runners collect dogs from central and surrounding areas before heading out to the beautiful South Downs. Because we know these trails inside out, we choose safe, scenic routes that give your dog space to run, explore, and thrive. We wear special running packs on all of our runs to carry first aid, water, bowls, and treats — of course! With years of experience, full insurance, canine first aid certification, and an unwavering love for dogs, you can be confident your dog is in safe, capable hands — having the time of their lives!

More Than Just a Walk — It’s an Adventure
At The Dog Runner, we take dogs beyond the pavements and into the open trails of the South Downs. Each run is a mini-adventure designed to build confidence, improve fitness, and give your dog the space to explore, play, and feel free. It’s more than exercise — it’s happiness on four paws.
