Dogs and horses on the Pebblebed Heaths

Tuesday, January 5, 2021

One of the reasons we love the Pebblebed Heaths is because there are miles of paths and tracks that can be enjoyed by dog walkers, horse riders and cyclists. However, with more people visiting this special place it's increasingly important that we all share the heaths and make sure that our dogs don't come into conflict with other users, especially horses. The Pebblebed Heaths Conservation Trust has produced these great guides to make sure that everyone can get along. We're also sharing this article from the Blue Cross which gives some insightful advice and considers why dogs and horses can sometimes come into conflict and gives some easy to follow advice.
