Structured Dog Walking

Structured Dog Waking

Not your average dog walking service. 

A structured walk gives our dog a job, it gives our dog a mental and a physical work out, it challenges their enegry in a productive way.

​

We pride ourselves achieving a calm well behaved pack that is a pleasure to share the trail with.

We focus on the basic obedience, the dog's calm state of mind, impulse control, leash manners and overall behaviour on our public trail systems.

​

Structured on leash pack walks that focus on nurturing a dog's calm mindset, polite socialization with the other dogs in the pack, confidence building, impulse control, leash skills, polite behaviour when passing other trail users, sit, down and stay practice & more.

 

Our walks are designed for owners who are dedicated to improving their dogs training, behaviour

and state of mind.
