Where the walking work sits across Solihull
Walking and drop-in demand in Solihull clusters where the commuter homes and green space overlap, so Shirley and Olton carry steady day-to-day work while Monkspath and Solihull Lodge fill in around them. Knowle and Dorridge lean more towards home boarding, but the dogs there still need midday walks when owners travel. Picking two or three neighbouring areas and walking them well beats criss-crossing the whole borough.
