Through the Woods Dogventures

Through the woods Dogventures is a dog walking company for the more active or even just spoiled pups looking for an adventure.

I started this company to help owners with aggressive or separation anxiety dogs. Everyone wants to go home to a happy dog.

🍂 Welcome to the Fall Dogventures Hiking Season!
Here’s what you and your pup can expect from our off-leash group hikes:

🌟 Purpose of Our Hikes
Dogs get exercise, enrichment, and socialization in a natural setting.

They enjoy structured freedom to explore, play, and practice good manners.

The goal is a safe, fun adventure that leaves your dog happy and fulfilled.

🦴 Safety & Structure
Dogs are only allowed off-leash if they show reliable recall and positive social behavior.

Groups are thoughtfully arranged based on compatibility, size, and energy levels.

I closely supervise all interactions and use leashes when needed (for safety, training, or trail rules).

I also track each hike’s distance and pace with my Fitbit, so you’ll know how far your dog adventured!

🐾 What You Can Expect
Exercise & Relaxation: Your dog will come home tired, satisfied, and mentally enriched.

Nature’s Touch: Depending on weather and terrain, dogs may come home a little muddy, wet, or with the occasional burr in their fur.

Natural Dog Behavior: Dogs will sniff, dig, splash, and romp — all under careful supervision.

Group Dynamics: Dogs are like people — they may not be best friends with everyone, but I manage play to keep things positive and safe.

📋 What I Ask from You
Dogs must be up-to-date on vaccines and on flea/tick prevention.

Reliable recall is preferred; if your dog needs more practice, I’ll use a long line until they’re ready.

Please understand that while I take every precaution, off-leash outdoor activity carries some natural risks (wildlife, uneven ground, weather).

📸 Communication
After each hike, I’ll share updates, photos, or videos so you can see your pup’s adventure.

If your dog shows challenges or special needs during a hike, I’ll reach out and work with you to adjust their plan.

✨ Thank you for trusting me with your dog’s outdoor adventures. Together, we’ll make this fall season full of wagging tails, muddy paws, and happy memories!
