🎃 Halloween Pack Walk

🎃 Halloween Pack Walk & Train

Saturday, October 24th | 10:00 AM

Break out the costumes and join us for a Halloween-themed Pack Walk & Train with PNW Pack Leader! 👻 Costumes are encouraged for both dogs and their humans, so feel free to get festive. Just make sure your pup’s costume is comfortable, safe, and doesn’t interfere with their movement or body language.

These walks are about more than getting some steps in. They’re a chance to practice leash skills, engagement, neutrality, and impulse control in the real world, with guidance and support along the way.

🐾 What to Expect

  • A trainer-led, structured group walk with real-life training opportunities

  • Coaching and support with leash handling, focus, and navigating distractions

  • Practice building calm, confident behavior around other dogs and people

  • A welcoming, judgment-free space to learn alongside other dog owners

  • A little Halloween fun along the way!

🐕 Who Can Join?

All breeds, training levels, and backgrounds are welcome!

Your dog does NOT need to be friendly with other dogs to join our walks. They do need to be manageable on leash, and you must be able to maintain control and create space when needed. These walks are about learning to coexist calmly, not interacting with every dog we pass.

To help keep everyone safe and set each team up for success:

  • One dog per handler, please.

  • Standard 4–6 ft leashes only. No retractable leashes or long lines.

  • No on-leash greetings between dogs. We give each other space and let dogs work at a distance that suits them.

  • Bring high-value treats, a treat pouch, water, and a bowl.

  • Costumes are encouraged but never required. Your dog’s comfort comes first!

If your dog is highly reactive, easily overwhelmed in group settings, or you’re unsure whether a pack walk is the right fit, reach out beforehand. I’m happy to help you figure out the best starting point for your dog.

📍 Location: To be announced! Details will be shared with approved RSVPs.

💰 Cost: $10–20 per dog on a sliding scale. Cash or Venmo accepted.

Spots are limited to keep the group manageable, and RSVP approval is required before attending.

Come as you are, bring your pup, and let’s work on being a little less spooky around the things that get our dogs excited! 🎃🐾
