Spring/Summer 2026 – Dog Walking in Richmond
Dog walking in Spring/Summer time, we need to be more flexible, as both Petersham Fields and Richmond Park have restrictions to dogs.
Petersham Fields:
Usually Petersham Fields, is out of bounds for dogs for 6 months, from 1st April to 30th September.
It is traditional for cows to be in the field, and hence dogs are not allowed.
Please contact the National Trust who manage Petersham Fields for more information.
Richmond Park Dogs On Leads:
According to the Richmond Park website, their statement is:
Deer birthing season (1 May to 31 July)
Dogs need to be on leads during the deer birthing season in Richmond Park.
This is a mandatory rule and applies to all areas of the park.
NB: I do not walk dogs in Richmond park, as only a certain number of dog walker licenses are issued/year & the risk with deer, I prefer to walk elsewhere.
Where To Walk Dogs During These Restrictions:
- Along the river
- Old Deer Park
- Ham Lands

Petersham Fields Dog Walking…
Autumn is here, and the leaves are an amazing colour now in Richmond.
The good news for all Richmond dog owners is that the “cow field” also known as Petersham Fields is now cow free as of last week so we can walk our dogs in there again.
The dogs do so love this field, and i know i do as well! Perfect place for ball play, and fun…!
It does get a little wet and muddy after a heavy winter rainfall, but the dogs I find love it even more… particularly the labradors and spaniels who do soooooo love the water!
Of course lots of other dogs love a good splash around to!.

Tortoise Sitting Richmond
I absolutly loved meeting this handsome fella, his is a 54 year old tortoise who lives in a beautiful garden in Richmond.
My job was to look after him, bathing him everyday on sunny, non rainy days and feeding him watermelon and lettuce.
His favourite activity was sunbathing…!
What a blessing to meet him and take care of him.
