Welcome to our Canine Coach Team Walk! To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, please follow these guidelines.


  1. Leash Policy:

    • Dogs must remain on-leash for the entire duration of the event.

    • Maintain a 3-foot distance between yourself and other handlers.

    • If the path is narrow, please walk in single file.

    • No retractable or bungee leashes are allowed.

  2. Dog Greetings:

    • Dog greetings are not permitted during the walk or the decompression period. This structured setting is designed to help dogs acclimate to one another safely.

  3. Distance Management:

    • Maintain a 6-foot distance from other dogs at all times to prevent nose-to-nose or nose-to-tail interactions. This helps build trust among participants and keeps everyone comfortable.

  4. Awareness of Surroundings:

    • As we are in public spaces, please be aware of both your surroundings and your dog's behavior. Humans have the right of way; give others ample space by stepping aside when passing by. Lead by example for your dog and for others in the group.

    • Pay attention to the movement of other owners and dogs in front of you. We may stop suddenly, or pause the walk momentarily to cross at street crossings or allow others to catch up if our team is separated.

  5. What to Bring:

    • Please bring water, poop bags, and treats.

    • Prevent dogs from marking or pottying in inappropriate areas. Choose suitable locations for bathroom breaks and always clean up after your dog.

  6. Post-Event Interactions:

    • If you wish to stay after the trainer concludes the event, please ask permission from other dog owners before allowing any dog interactions.

Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to a fun and productive walk together!


  • We encourage you to bring treats to use at this time as well as during the walk.

  • Check the weather prior to the Team Walk and make sure to bring water for yourself and your dog.

  • Closed toed shoes, and athletic attire is encouraged for this event. We try to keep a consistent speed but be prepared to walk slower or faster depending on the meeting location and number of atendees.

  • Feel free to pull off to the side and let others pass at any time. You and your dog do not need to stay with the group if it is not what is best for them at any time. We encourage you to advocate for your dog.

  • If your dog is stressed, anxious, or excitable around other dogs, we recommend you skip the Team Walk for now and see our private training page or other services.
