M42 Junction 9 waterside dog walk, Warwickshire

Lovely relaxing dog walk along the Birmingham and Fazeley canal towpath, with side paths into a nature reserve. The towpath is well-maintained and clean underfoot.

A42 Junction 14 dog walk and dog-friendly pub, Derbyshire

M1 Junction 13 dog walk and dog-friendly dining, Bedfordshire

Modern dining pub with some tables for diners with dogs. And a safe and easy dog walk close by. Very close to M1 J13 and less than 5 miles from J14 too.
