Workin’ Like a Dog: The PuppyPartyBus Pack Walk Program

Structured pack walks, recess & snuggle time for dogs in alameda, ca

Structured On-Leash Pack Walks with an experienced handler build confidence + provide time for your dog to be out in the real world in a controlled environment with other dogs. #DogGroupTherapyHour

A day Workin’ Like a Dog on the PuppyPartyBus includes: 1.5+ hours of real-world exposure, experience, and confidence-building for your creature companion; a new challenge each day at different locations to practice impulse control regardless the stimuli; regulated socialization during “recess”; lessons on snuggling during post-walk cuddle puddle time in the back of The Bus (a Honda Fit); an edited portrait photo of your dog; a pack photo of all the dogs from that day’s class; and, a personalized “While You Were Out” note detailing bathroom movement(s), cute quips from the day, and behavior notes. Dogs are generally out of the house for 3.5 to 6 hours each day.

Hadley uses a combination of tools and techniques, pulled from their background experiences with positive-reinforcement as well as with balanced dog training. Hadley refers to this method as "integrative rehabilitation," and has been working with dogs almost daily for over a decade. On structured pack walks, Hadley is able to open lines of communication, establish solid and consistent boundaries, create strong trust bonds, and generate loving accountability with and for the dogs they have the honor and pleasure of working with.
