Your dog can start once they have all of their shots. We recommend starting slow with twice a week and working up to more, once they reach 1 year old.
Nope! We provide complimentary pick-up and drop-off!
No problem! Many of our clients join the pack for convenience and because they are too busy. If not home, we require access to a lockbox, key code, or garage code.
Absolutely! We have many smaller dogs in our pack which are hiked in a specific group for our smaller and younger dogs.
We are licensed, insured, and have an employee dishonesty coverage policy.

All dogs must have a properly fitted collar with ID tags.

We provide:
We towel dry and spot brush before drop-off so they are relatively clean and comfortable. Please inform us if you have a particular place to leave your dog on wet days.
Our pack is membership-based as we have a limited number of spots to keep the pack dynamic stable and safe for all dogs and team members.
Pack Membership covers your Meet & Greet, reserves your dog's spot in the pack, includes one birthday service, and helps cover leashes and supplies.
We introduce and maintain boundaries and thresholds to provide structure for the dogs. We sit to get on and off leash, sit to get into the car, and wait until called to exit the vehicle individually. We begin hiking when all dogs are seated and calm. We also work on name recognition and recall. During hikes, we move the pack to the side of the trail and have them focus on us for other trail users to pass.
It is similar to a heel. We work with the dogs to walk with us rather than pull while on leash. This leads to a calmer and safer experience for our clients and for us. *Owners, must be consistent with leash manners for continued success.
Single-dog walks tend to allow a dog to dictate the pace and where they go, which can lead to leash pulling. Pack hikes offer structured group walks which encourage dogs to walk in cadence. This helps train loose-leash walking while receiving physical and mental stimulation.
