PACK WALK DISTANCE: About 2 miles round trip. We will start around the park to help relieve excess energy and then we can make the loop twice around the park or walk the nearby neighborhood.

TRAIL: Paved

DIFFICULTY: Easy

DISTRACTION LEVEL: Medium (lots of squirrels, park visitors, dogs, kids)

LARPBO PACK WALK GUIDELINES:

1 All dogs must be on a secure collar and leash. Dogs using e-collars must also be on a leash. Prong collars should be backed up with a carabiner. Short leashes are recommended (less than 6 feet). Retractable leashes and harnesses are not allowed as they provide little control.

2 PLEASE NO NOSE TO NOSE CONTACT (dog to dog that is). Always maintain a six-foot distance between dogs. There should be no dog-on-dog interaction.

3 Please bring doggie poo bags.

4 Make sure you bring water for you and your dog.

5 One dog per handler. No exceptions!

6 Share the road. Move to the right to let others pass.

All breeds welcome.
There will be foot traffic, bikes, and several others dogs. If your dog tends to be reactive to any of these distractions, please be EXTRA mindful and prepared.
If you have additional questions, please read the full basic LARPBO rules of conduct (https://www.larpbo.org/faqs-4) in the discussion forum.
