Massive thank you to @itvnews for talking with us today regarding the license scheme by @CityCorpHeath @cityoflondon.

Keep eyes peeled over the next couple of days to hear what we have to say. 🤘🏻🐶💚

Murphy loves his dog walkers as much as he loves tennis balls!

The dog walkers we know provide vital care for those of us who CAN'T do it ourselves. All of us will suffer -- doggies, humans, and walkers -- if this scheme goes through.

Huge thanks for @guardian for featuring our story.

This will become a welfare problem for dogs in the Hampstead area. Owners planned ahead by booking a professional dog walker & now that service will be taken away. An unrealistic scheme. https://t.co/7udfuAph7m

Yet, from a community of smiling faces who walk & help the dogs & public surrounding Hampstead Heath, we are now a group of people fearing for our jobs & our dogs.

We welcome a license & have done for years, but not one that doesn't support the reality of our industry.

[Ryan Dalton @MrRyanJDalton]

No matter what you think of dog walkers, the fact is, on Hampstead Heath there is an incredible & responsible community of professional dog walkers.

Litter picking, reuniting lost dogs, directing public, enforcing dog walking guides. We are the eyes.

🐶The HPDWA needs your help!🐶

Demand for pro dog walking services hit an all-time high & @cityoflondon, Hampstead Heath Committee is introducing a licensing scheme that will cull 60% of the pro walkers that operate at Hampstead Heath & Highgate Wood. #SaveOurDogWalkers
