Do you really collect from Pleasington village itself?

Yes — Pleasington, Feniscowles and Cherry Tree are all BB2 and all core coverage, door to door. Pleasington dogs get some of the shortest rides on the rotation: the good ground starts practically on the doorstep.

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

You wouldn't — you'd pay for the range. One Wednesday it's a forest day, the next the moor above Darwen — ground your dog would never otherwise get on a weekday, in a small supervised group that leaves them properly tired. £25 covers everything.

Which days does the bus run?

Wednesday afternoons, every week, from 9 September — collected after 12:30, home by 3:30 — with more days opened as routes fill. Booking closes at 8pm the night before each run.

I'm in Hoghton or Withnell — am I covered?

Not by this bus — PR5 and PR6 are Chorley & South Ribble territory, with their own days in the calendar. Run your postcode through the checker on the booking page and it tells you which region you're in.

Door-to-door dog adventures

Dog adventures in Feniscowles & Pleasington

Name: PawTrips
Price range: ££

Feniscowles and Pleasington sit where Blackburn runs out and the good ground begins: 480 acres of country park on one side, the old-hall woods behind the Priory on the other, the canal between them and Tockholes Road climbing away towards the moor. From Wednesday 9 September PawTrips collects door-to-door across the BB2 villages — Feniscowles, Pleasington, Cherry Tree, Livesey and Mill Hill — and some afternoons the adventure starts five minutes from home.

Other afternoons 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 — no crates.

Blackburn & Darwen is our newest area, running Wednesday afternoons every week to start — collected after 12:30, home by half three — with more days opened as routes fill. Photos from the afternoon land in your dashboard the same evening, along with a short honest note about how your dog got on.

Where Feniscowles & Pleasington 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.

Collection area

BB2

Door-to-door across Feniscowles, Pleasington, Cherry Tree, Livesey and Mill Hill — the whole of BB2, right up to Mellor. Over the borough boundary in Hoghton, Riley Green, Withnell and Abbey Village you're on Chorley & South Ribble's PR5/PR6 bus instead; the postcode checker on the booking page gives a straight answer either way.
