✨Applications are now open for our 4 week Young Pup Adventure Program !🐾

Please submit applications by Thursday October 29th!! 📆Message me for the application or with any questions! I look forward to meeting your pups!

I'm excited to start putting our first group together! This is for friendly dogs 6 months-2 years old, this program combines hiking, structured play, and opportunities to learn in a small group.

Along the way, we'll practice everyday skills like recall, leash manners, and settling around other dogs. Activities will be tailored to the groups abilities, with each dog learning at their own pace.

*Small group, limited to 4 dogs
*Tuesdays & Thursdays for four weeks (8 outings)
*Approximately 10am-2pm depending on pickup and drop-off route
*Pickup and Drop off included- limited to Belmont, Canterbury, Loudon, Gilmanton, Northfield, Tilton & Concord
*Dogs must be in good health and up to date on vaccinations.

We're aiming to begin in November, pending sufficient enrollment.

Have a young dog who would love more time to adventure, play, and learn? 🐾

I’m considering offering a new four-week program designed specifically for younger dogs, approximately 6 months–2 years old.

Longer outdoor outings would combine hiking, structured play, socialization, working on leash skills, recall, down-stay, settling around other dogs, riding calmly in the car, and more—building skills for home and future Backcountry Pup adventures.

🐕 Small group, limited to 4 dogs
📅 Tuesdays & Thursdays for four weeks—8 outings
🕙 Approximately four hours, typically around 10 AM–2 PM
🚐 Pickup and drop-off included; timing varies by location and route
*Belmont, Canterbury, Loudon, Gilmanton, Northfield, Tilton, Concord

Would this be a good fit for your pup? Message me with your dog’s age, your town, and whether Tuesdays and Thursdays would work for you. I’m gathering interest before confirming the first group!

I’m considering offering a new four-week program designed specifically for younger dogs, approximately 6 months–2 years old.

Longer outdoor outings would combine hiking, structured play, socialization, and training throughout the day. We’d work on leash skills, recall, down-stay, settling around other dogs, riding calmly in the car, and more—building skills for home and future Backcountry Pup adventures.

Really proud of this group today! 🐾

We might not always cover a ton of ground, but there’s so much to gain along the way. Each hike is shaped around the dogs joining us—taking time to practice the skills they need, offering support where needed, and helping everyone feel confident and successful.

Today, everyone had something a little different to work on, and they all did so well. We’ll keep building on that progress, with plenty of room to explore, have fun, and thrive together.

Looking for supportive group hikes where your dog can practice skills, build confidence, and enjoy time outdoors? Get in touch to learn more and reserve a spot!

Fall days like this are made for being outside. 🍂🐾 We enjoyed the beautiful weather and worked some recall practice into our adventure. A little exploring, a little learning, and plenty of time to just be dogs!

Local Trail Ready Dog Training Workshop on October 24th 🐾🍁🥾🐕

Adventure With Confidence!

We've all heard it. “DON'T WORRY! HE’S FRIENNNNDLY!”
You turn around and see a loose dog sprinting toward you at Mach 5 while their owner is approximately half a mountain away.

We can’t control who you’ll run into on the trail, but we can prepare you and your dog for it.

Our Trail Ready Workshop covers:
-Passing other dogs/people
-Preparing for loose dogs
-What to do if your dog runs off
-When you're ready for off-leash
-Unexpected encounters
-Useful trail commands
-Etiquette & NH trail culture
-Safety, gear, and all the other things that make hiking with your dog a lot less stressful
