We’re delighted to support dogs and their people enjoying nature together, and that’s why our partnership with the National Trust is so important to us.
We’re passionate about increasing access for four-legged family members at the many spaces cared for by the National Trust through our joint ‘Dogs Welcome’ project.
When planning your next Trust visit, you can use the ‘pawprint rating’ system to give you an idea of how dog friendly a space is (ratings available on properties webpages & in your National Trust Handbook).
Three-pawprint-rated spaces are the best places to visit for a day out with your dog. You’ll be able to take them to most areas and enjoy some special dog-friendly experiences.
Two-pawprint spaces have water bowls, bins and dog-friendly walks, but you won’t be able to take them everywhere and you’ll likely need to sit outside at the café.
One-pawprint spaces have limited facilities – though your dog will be able to stretch their legs in the car park and walk in nearby open spaces, depending on the season.
The number of two and three pawprint-rated spaces has increased with new facilities including more trails for you and your dog, waste bins, wash-down areas and drinking stations. Dogs can stay for free at 300 National Trust holiday cottages and 20 campsites – an ideal way to enjoy a staycation with your two and four-legged family.
"The Dogs Welcome Project, funded by Forthglade, is supporting the National Trust’s work to become more dog friendly. In the last three years, we have doubled the number of 3 pawprint places - the ones that are best for dogs and their families to visit on their days out.
In 2024, we helped improved the facilities for visitors with dogs at 23 National Trust places and we’ve been working hard together to provide training and guidance for staff to help them provide a better welcome. A key focus of our work this year is more dog-friendly gardens and help for visitors with dogs to get the most out of visits to the countryside."

We're proud to have teamed up with Devon-based charity Veterans With Dogs, who share our belief that mental health and wellbeing can be improved by the companionship of a dog.
Each month we support UK charities with a donation of our Devon-made dog’s dinners. Our Happy Paws charity initiative is a big part of who we are and what we do at Forthglade.
We believe every dog deserves the best life which is why we're proud to have recently joined forces with Vicky Pattison at RSPCA Southridge.
