Couple and pampered pooch enjoying England’s longest dog walk

A couple and their pampered pooch are enjoying England’s longest dog walk. Wives Rachel Leigh, 34, and Jill Pearson, 36, are hiking the South West Coast Path – England’s longest marked footpath with Pomeranian cross Arnie. The family are carrying all their supplies for the 630-mile walk on their back – including little Arnie whose legs are usually too tired to walk. The couple have modified a child carrier for him, covering the leg holes so he can lie down and even adding a special pillow. They’ve taken 12 weeks off to do the walk – which they are half way through – and took on the challenge due to their shared love of the outdoors and as a mental-health boost. The outdoorsy pair say walking takes longer with Arnie as they are stopped up to 50 times a day by people who want to give him a cuddle. They said the scariest moment was when they nearly lost their tent off a cliff in the wind. The highlight was finding chocolate and bananas in an honesty box after days on end of lentils and porridge. The South West Coast Path stretches from Minehead in Somerset, along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall, to Poole Harbour in Dorset.
