1. Peckham Rye Park and Common: This green oasis is a haven for both humans and their four-legged friends reaching from East Dulwich up to central Peckham. Well behaved dogs can go off lead on the common area, and there are plenty of paths for picturesque walks. With ponds, woodlands, and even a cafe, it's a fantastic place to spend quality time with your pup. You can even pop into Dog Friendly Peckham Bowls for a quick game or a pint with you pup - and find our Paws & Pause dog treats on the bar!

Founders
Making London a better place,
one paw at a time
They met working for a homelessness charity & quickly became frustrated with the lack of resources for people in recovery. So they decided to combine their passion for supporting people with their love of dogs..
and Paws & Pause was born!
