Experience Days with Dogs - Sheepdog experience days, husky sledding, pet grooming & pet photoshoot

Experience days are a great way to get closer to animals we love & want to find out more about, and giving an animal lover a gift experience day can really give them something to look forward & a great day out. Among the many animal gift experiences, there are now a number which concentrate on man's best friend - the dog. So here's a round up of experience days with dogs.

	The National Trust has many dog friendly places Did you know that the National Trust cares for 700 miles of stunning coastline and 600,000 acres of beautiful countryside?

Take a look anyway at the National Trust's Dog Friendly pages - there's lots of info, so if you think this would be for you or a gift for someone, you could become a member of the National Trust.
