Treat your pup to a life of adventure
At Happy Hound Excursions it’s our mission to help dogs in North County find balance and joy through the power of pack walks. We believe that every dog deserves a fulfilling and adventurous life, and we’re dedicated to providing exceptional service to our community. We get to know and love each dog as our own, and our goal is to help your dogs live their best lives and bring a little more happiness to our neighborhood.
Benefits of Pack Walking
Physical Exercise
Long walks give dogs the opportunity to engage in regular physical activity, improving their overall health and happiness.
Mental Stimulation
Dogs exercise their minds by learning and practicing loose leash skills, extended down stays, and calm car rides in a pack setting.
social interaction
Pack walks provide a safe environment for dogs to socialize with their peers, enhancing their social skills and overall well-being.
How do I know if my dog is ready for pack walks?
Fill out our inquiry form! If we think your dog seems a good fit, we will start by scheduling a free initial assessment to get to know you and your dog and determine whether pack walks are right for you. We work with dogs on an individual basis first to give them the tools and understanding they need to fully enjoy the pack and everything it has to offer. Many dogs who have struggled with over-excitement, lack of socialization, and reactivity are able to successfully integrate with the pack.
We teach our pack members:
- how to walk on a loose leash
- how to relax in the car
- basic commands such as sit, stay, leave it.
If your dog needs extra support before joining the pack, or we think that pack walking may not be the best fit, we can provide recommendations for other services. Our priority is that your dog’s unique needs are met, be it with us or another trusted professional service.
Requirements & Pricing
Walks are typically one-two hours in duration, with dogs out of the house for 3-5 hours. Depending on weather conditions, we may cut the duration of actual walking and spend remaining time allowing the dog to relax and enjoy safe socialization and play time.
- $50 per day
- 20% discount for multiple dogs
- Price includes pick up and drop off
- Dogs must be able to walk two to three miles
Please note that all pack members must commit to at least one walk per week in order to keep consistency and structure within the pack.
