Meet other local people with dogs, to get out and hike (or just do local walks to keep in shape for the upcoming hikes). Focus is on fun and exercise for both humans and canines. Great for beginning walkers or experienced hikers.

The focus of this group is being outdoors with your dogs! Primarily the meetups will be for walks and hikes.  Some dog-centric events like Dog-a-thon will be scheduled, too.  And a few dog-park meetups.  I try to post "notes" for other local events that might be of interest:  bring-your-dog events, outdoor safety  classes, outdoor gear sales (like at REI), etc. If anyone is interested in leading an event, let me know!  I am happy to share the group with everyone.  See you on the trail!

Meet other out-of-shape local hiking enthusiasts in this dog-and-family-friendly group. We'll set a slower pace, and start with easier, shorter hikes.

I'm unabashedly completely and totally overweight and out of shape, and I want to do something about it. If you do too, then let's start slow! If you aren't interested in pushing yourself just that lit …

If you have an Aussie or Border Collie (and heaven help you if you've got more than one!), you know that they are . . . well . . . as crazy, neurotic, remarkably intelligent, unique, extremely loving & devoted, beautiful, OCD-prone, high energy and intense as their owners. But we love 'em just as much as they love us - quirks and all! PURPOSE: I've started this group to provide an opportunity for Aussie & BC owners to meet with each other and their dogs for play dates, walks, hikes, bike rides, …
