Walking dogs in RG5, honestly.

Written dog walker to dog walker. This is the ground truth the apps and lead sites have never stood in — at six in the morning, in the rain.

The doors. Inner-Reading streets of terraces and flat conversions, packed tight — and no yard the size of a rug ever counted as exercise. Conversion flats double the doors per building — and a dog walked well from one flat has a way of recruiting the dog upstairs. Puppies follow moving vans as surely as spring follows winter, and this patch moves roughly 395 households in a normal year.

The parking. Kerbside terraces where the morning is decided by one parking spot — and behind every third door, a dog is waiting on it. The pavements are the round's asset: pickups stack closer here than anywhere, and close pickups are paid minutes, not driving. Pavement miles count double for sniff work, and the day's proper run happens wherever the district's real open space turns out to be — every urban walker maps that in week one.

The round. The round in RG5 works around Woodley. Around 11,040 households live here, and the ones who take a dog walker keep them — five days a week, term time and holidays, years on end. That's not a lead list — that's a round, built once and kept.
