Vontrapp, thanks very much for your advice. I'll stick up a couple of signs in the shops locally and see what the response is like. I'll PM you now to get contact info for your friends in Port.
Yoltan, what did you come up with after you checked this out? We are keen to adopt a couple of dogs but they would be alone from 9 to 5 most weekdays, so I'd like to find a dog walker before we adopt.
Cheers,
Stuart.
