Hi,
My name is Amy-Louise and i have recently rescued an 18month crossbreed (we think he is a staff/greyhound)
I have recently moved to Bicester (in oxfordshire) and am currently in a small dilema.
As this is a new area to me i am trying to find some nice exciting places to walk with my new best friend.
I have been onto the internet to try and find a website or a link that could direct me to the right place but i have found nothing thats been of any use.
Does anyone know of a website i could look at to find out where i can go?
Thanking any help in advance
Amy-Lou xx

I know Staff/Greyhound...... i was a bit worried myself!!
He's got the height and length of the Greyhound but the build of a Staff.
To me he's gorgeous!! In love in such a short time.
Only problem i have is the rescue centre believe he may have been an ex bait dog (for dog fights) and gaining his trust has been a struggle and he's still so unsure of everything at the moment. He nearly had a heart attack when he saw the stairs!
He's settled in so much in such a short time it's almost hard to believe!
Thank you very much i am glad to be here, dogs are my life and finally my life is my dog!! :)
I have left my digital camera at home so i will try and remember it tomorrow and make sure i post some picks of him.... you'll have to let me know what you think!!

Amy lou, maybe you could just take a map and have a look if there's anything near you and then go and check it. Some maps show paths.
You could also ask other dog walkers. Now I've started to go the park as our puppies are old enough, I find everyone so friendly. A guy today even told us of a longer walk for the summertime!
