Once the setting for Lord Burlington's summer parties, Chiswick House is now a wonderful spot for walkies. The gardens were re-opened to the public in 2010 and are beautiful to visit at any time of year.
A complete lap of the gardens reveals a great variety of trees and plant life and plenty of fun for dogs, including the chance to chase squirrels up trees (keep your dog on a lead if you think it's got a realistic chance of catching one).
There are always other dogs about so it's not hard to find someone to enjoy a game with, as long as you don't stray into the "dogs on leads" area by the Italian Garden.
And once you're exhausted, the cafe's not bad either. They serve excellent breakfast sandwiches and all the usual tea and cake that you might require later in the day.
