  • Whiskers and Leo Pack Club- 5.1.16

    a black lab panting on a hike in the hills

    All are welcome, whether clients of Whiskers and Leo, or not, small or large dogs, purebreds or mixed, to take part in our adventures!

    I’m sure you can all attest to the fact that your dogs are super smart!  Well, a smart dog needs to be entertained and exercised, or else a smart dog can turn into a bad dog!

    New sights, sounds and smells are good for all of our dogs, so come join us on our monthly walks!  Meet other local dog owners, who are looking for fun things to do with their pups too!  We will meet about once a month, when the weather permits, at different locations.  Ideas are always welcome too!

    No costs associated!  Just always bring treats and water for your dogs, and no flexi leashes allowed!  Also please respect each other’s dogs, by not approaching another dog unless you ask permission from the client- there could be some dogs on the walk that are leash aggressive, or dog reactive.

    Excited to see you all!

    Next pack walk:  May 1, 2016, 10:00 AM

    Meet by the beach entrance at Maxwell waterfront in Hoboken, NJ.  We will walk along the water to Weehawken and back.  Simple yet beautiful stroll!
