Hiking is a great outlet for our dogs, and wonderful enrichment. Our hiking appointments last for 2 hours, allowing for up to 30 minutes of driving each way and guaranteeing at least an hour of hiking time. Hikes are always done on a long line to allow your pup to explore and enjoy some freedom while staying safe.
​
On hikes we spend time reinforcing check ins, practicing our recalls, and building foundations for reliable off leash skills. 

If you would like to extend your dogs hike we can add an hour for an additional fee. If you'd like your dog to get some social time on their hike, we can also bring along one of the trainers socially savvy dogs.

Going to a nearby park is another great opportunity for sniff time, as well as a great chance to practice skills around a lot of distractions. Park walks last for 90 minutes, allowing for up to 15 minutes of driving time each way and guaranteeing an hour in the park. Park walks may be done on a long line to allow your pup to sniff, or on a six foot leash. This will vary depending on the park and your dog. 

On park walks we spend time reinforcing check ins, practicing recalls, and practicing our loose leash walking skills.

Walks around the neighborhood can also be highly enriching for our dogs, and it's a great place to get a lot of practice. Neighborhood walks can also be highly frustrating, so it can be helpful to have someone step in and help take some of the frustration off your plate! Neighborhood walks last for one hour of walking time and are always done on a six foot leash. 

On neighborhood walks we spend time reinforcing check ins, practicing our loose leash walking skills, and practicing sidewalk manners.
