You should join if you have a love for animals, and would like to spend some time improving the lives of some beautiful, loving, but homeless dogs. Y …

Our Group: This group centers around the lifestyle of running and hiking/walking with our dogs and enjoying a high-end sudsy beverage — and increasing awareness of how dogs are true partners to humans. Extra Fun: Among our everyday events you'll find the random dog-friendly event that doesn't have anything to do with a run or a hike, but likely a beer or some wine. Keep an eye on the group as we develop something new and exciting in the running community! Supporting Service Dogs: Our official ch …

A group for adventurous dogs and their people. The plan is to set up meetups for some of our favorite things to do with our dogs: off-leash hiking, walking, group playdates, training field trips, on-leash socialization walks etc. We'll try out new things when we find them...we're open to all suggestions! We don't discriminate based on breed or type, but we do ask that dogs are non-dog-aggressive to attend certain events, such as group playdates or off-leash hikes.
