As pet owners around the UK celebrate National Dog Day, the Shropshire Star asked readers what the best locations are to walk your four legged friendsin the county.
Whether you need a large open space to let a greyhound stretch its legs, or somewhere for your pampered pooch to meet other dogs, Shropshire has it all.Home to Admiral Rodney’s Pillar, an obelisk commemorating Admiral Rodney’s victory over the French in 1782, the surrounding Breidden Hills gives wonderful views towards the River Severn and Offa’s Dyke Path.
Situated between Oswestry and Welshpool, off the A483, the area is ideal for both people and dogs to take some exercise. The pathway spirals up the hill through woodland until you reach the pillar, and there are no gates or stiles to worry about. There are also plenty of woodland areas for dogs to have a sniff in, but there are livestock on the hills that owners should keep an eye out for.The nature reserve near Morda has been a favourite haunt for dog owners in the area for years.
