Our Services
Socialize your dog with our group walks, where they can play and exercise with other dogs.
The Safety of your pet is our utmost priority:
We safely introduce new dogs to the dogs in their prospective group for compatibility. Dogs must be up to date with their vaccinations, including rabies and Bordetella (kennel cough). A municipal dog license is also required.
Pets that become sick with an infectious condition will not be able to go on group walks until all symptoms have cleared up, certified by a veterinarian. We will offer a private walk; length of walk depends on your dog’s condition.
