What we’re about
This is a group of Dog lovers that like to socialize and get out for walks, hikes, or attend events with our 4 legged companions. We are all easy-going, dog-loving people, and we understand that some dogs need a little more time to warm up to the pack. Never hesitate to ask questions about our pack, We have some very knowledgeable dog lovers in this group! Hikes are from somewhat challenging and strenuous to very easy walks in the park. With skill levels ranging from beginner to expert and anywhere in between, all are welcome! We try to find dog-friendly restaurants locally to the hike where we can enjoy each other's company just a little longer. We also attend events organized by others where bringing our dogs are encouraged and accepted! We love exploring local, outdoor, dog-friendly locations and meet like-minded individuals, and we hope you would like to join us. Let's check out what the greater Hudson Valley area has to offer for pet-friendly recreation.
