We have a variety of breeds and mixes with all kinds of backgrounds. Dogs are social creatures just like their humans and the group interaction on our hikes is great for the dog's …

We organize fun and adventurous outings for dogs and their owners in the San Francisco Bay Area. Currently most of our hikes are in the South Bay Area. We occasionally offer walks in the afternoon and/or evenings and training sessions with a dog trainer. Our sponsors are businesses that offer their free time to organize hikes, walks and other fun outings for you and your dog. We are solely run by volunteers. We will also post other dog related events as a courtesy. Happy Hiking!

Run for fun - in rain or sun - on dirt, rocks, mud, grass or sand. Run with us, alone, for a cause or for yourself. Run barefoot, in flip flops, or high-tech trainers.  Run in your PJs, birthday suit, or latest, greatest gear.  Run at night under a full moon or under the mid-day blazing sun.  Run without rules or plans.  Run because you want to- not because you have to. Our Meet ups feature non-competitive, set-your-own-pace trail runs through county parks, often combined with group activities …

Here, the dogs are able to freely run and play together after they have received all their vaccinations. We adopt a lot of small breed puppies and dogs, whelping mothers and emergency cases. Our rescue facility is a no-kill shelter that is operated by few volunteers. Our rescued dogs are exposed to cats, horses and many large and small dogs. All the dogs learn t …

I've been meaning to found this group for a long time, but I wanted to be somewhere where I'd actually be putting down roots and staying awhile. Finally, that day has come! This is a group for anyone who has a Service Dog or Working Dog of any type accompanying them through this crazy thing we call life. It's also a place where puppyraisers are welcome, as are people who are seeking information - trying to decide if a service dog is a good option for themselves, wanting to know more about the va …

Are you stuck on a problem that needs solving? Maybe you need completely unbiased minds, brains from varied backgrounds to pump new life into finding a solution. You're not alone - we've all been there. I've started and run several successful Web and tech businesses. I alone never solved all the problems my businesses faced or came up with every great idea that advanced the businesses. What I did know was how to lead brainstorming sessions which led to the solutions we needed and were searching …

This group was inspired by the hundreds of workshops I have given all over the US. Photographers were asking for ways to build their portfolios with high quality images and unique concepts. They were running out of ideas / did not have ideas, could not find models, locations or sets and were hitting a wall. After all a photography web-site filled with photos of your dog or your own children might not say "professional" in a way you want it to. This is what we will do here. The instructors will a …

We are a group for single men and women who own dogs to get together, let the dogs play, and hopefully meet an interesting fellow pet owner.

I'd like to start a bike shop/cafe, along the lines of Mojo Bicycle Cafe in San Francisco. Maybe it's just a bike shop, but I'd like to consider the food/drink aspects of well. The important aspects of the business venture will be that it is: run as 'a real business' that makes money so it can pay its bills/salaries/expenses a worker-owned and run cooperative democratically-runa non-destructive retail/restaurant chain (as in the business concept, not the physical bike chain) active and engaged …

Calling all those gaga for a chihuahua or other chihuahua-sized dog! My chi Lolita would like to meet some other small dogs to play and run with at Shoreline Dog Park in Mountain View. She's afraid of big dogs. We'll meet once a week or more at Shoreline in the small dog enclosure so that the dogs can play. There's a picnic table in the shade so human and dog snacks can be available.
