Do you collect from Kearsley and Little Lever?

Yes — the whole of BL4 plus Little Lever and Great Lever on the BL3 side. Collection and drop-off are door-to-door; you never have to meet the bus anywhere.

We walk the country park every day — why pay for it?

You wouldn't — you'd pay for the range. One trip is a forest day, the next a fell climb your dog would never otherwise get on an ordinary Tuesday, in a small supervised group that leaves them properly, thoroughly tired. £27 covers everything.

How big are the groups?

Capped at twelve dogs with a qualified walker to every six, and every dog is temperament-screened before their first trip. If a group setting isn't right for your dog, we'll say so before you spend a penny.

Which days do you run?

Tuesdays to start — Bolton & Horwich is our newest area and days are added as routes fill. Booking closes at 8pm the night before each run.

Door-to-door dog adventures

Dog adventures in Farnworth & Little Lever

Name: PawTrips
Price range: ££

Farnworth sits on top of one of Bolton's best-kept secrets: 750 acres of lodges, meadow and river valley folded in behind Hall Lane. PawTrips collects door-to-door across BL4 and the Little Lever side of BL3 — Farnworth, Kearsley, Stoneclough, Little Lever — and some mornings the adventure starts five minutes from home.

Other days it doesn't, and that's the point of the bus: a fell day, a beach day, a forest day or a secure field day, picked the night before once we've seen the weather. A dozen dogs at most, six to each qualified walker, matched by temperament, each in their own harnessed pup pod with a window seat.

We've just launched in the Bolton area, so the calendar opens with Tuesday runs and grows from there — early bookers steer where the new days go. Home rinsed, dried and properly tired, with photos in your dashboard the same afternoon.

Where Farnworth dogs go

Real adventures, not laps of the block

Fell day

Open tops and big weather, for the dogs that need to really stretch.

Beach day

Sand to tear up at low tide, and a tide line full of smells.

Forest day

Quiet mid-week paths, soft ground and shade — easier on older joints.

Secure field day

Fenced the whole way round, for the dogs who need the space to themselves.

One of four kinds of day — a fell day, a beach day, a forest day or a secure field day. We pick the spot the night before, once we've seen the weather, the ground and which dogs are on board. Your dog is out for at least 3 hours, including their walk. See the calendar.
