Meet other Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dog owners; attend monthly outings with playtime and socialization for the Cavaliers. The best thing about the group is the interaction between the dogs. We have seen shy Cavaliers come out of their shell after just a few meet ups! and the Cavaliers have so much fun! The bonus for us humans is the information about their beloved Cavaliers that the owners share, We have learned tons of good information with the shared perspective of other Cavalier owners. …

Owners who bring dogs that repeatedly exhibit aggressive behavior on any given hike will be asked to walk separately from the group …

From the founder: Upon graduation, I promised myself I would never wear a suit, nor would I work in an office. Fate threw me suited up into an office for seven years. This was my tour of duty in the illusory world of hierarchical control, greed, fear and systemic hypnosis. I was living a half-life, and no-one was more aware of this fact than I was. There were, of course, moments of stunning humanity in my time in “the office” working as a financial adviser and all round salesman for the corpor …

Weekend hiking with the canine companion(s) and socializing with other hikers in the community. One doesn't have to be a dog owner to be a member; just someone who likes hanging around dogs and the outdoors. Since I'm still learning the area, I will be posting dog-friendly hiking trails from www.bahiker.com, but other suggestions are welcome and encouraged. My partner and I have a senior Corgi, so most hikes will be low-key and fall within beginner-to-intermediate levels. The majority of the hi …

This group was inspired by the hundreds of workshops I have given all over the US. Photographers were asking for ways to build their portfolios with high quality images and unique concepts. They were running out of ideas / did not have ideas, could not find models, locations or sets and were hitting a wall. After all a photography web-site filled with photos of your dog or your own children might not say "professional" in a way you want it to. This is what we will do here. The instructors will a …

A friendly place for Tiburon's finest dogs to play, and their owners to mingle!

Let's face it, we all could use more playtime, whether you're a dog or human, and our dogs can never get too much socialization and exercise.  It's in their nature to want to be social, and more active they are, healthier they will be (mentally and physically), same goes for us humans!  :) This group will meet regularly, dedicated to doing fun hikes or long walks in beautiful locations all around in and around San Francisco Bay Area. The goal is to have a regular calendar of events going so the …

What we mean by fast:  We can hold a conversations, but your heart rate will increase and you will sweat!  We are not runners or speed walkers but we all have been told "gosh, you walk fast".  We will leave you in the dust …
