What worries your dog?

Please read before you go. This is a guide worked out from map data, not a promise. It can't know about loose dogs, livestock moved into a field this week, a shoot on a private estate, or a busy day. Some nature reserves don't allow dogs, so check the signs. Keep your dog on a long line until you know a route, and turn back if the day isn't going well.

How the scores work

Every footpath, bridleway and track is checked for the things that most often unsettle a nervous dog: how close it is to housing, car parks, parks and popular spots (other dogs and people), fields likely to hold sheep or cattle, cycle routes, shooting grounds and crops where bird scarers are used, and main roads. Your answers above decide how much each one counts, so the same map works for a dog who hates bikes and one who hates bangs.

A good walk for a nervous dog also needs sight lines, room to step aside and somewhere to turn back to. The map can't judge those, so read my walk notes too, and why decompression walks work.
