Pack Walks
Our Pack Walks are adventure walks on private and public property. We walk in various locations, from busy suburban areas to calmer forest walks, exposing the dogs to multiple environments. We ensure new dogs get the time and attention to acclimatise to the pack on our private, 10-acre property and for our current dogs to get to know them. Variety in the environment helps build their confidence and strengthens our relationship with the pack.
Dogs are incredibly social animals and love being a part of a pack. With a good relationship with their handler, they can thrive in this environment. As the handler/leader, we ensure every dog has what it needs and feels safe and secure in our care.
The dogs receive training in essential, basic commands such as follow, stay, recall and stay close. They are taught to be calm and respectful while on walks, both on and off-lead.
Our walks vary between 5 -12km per day.
Pack Walks are currently at Capacity
These past few months have been bustling with enquiries, making it our busiest period yet! With Winter on the horizon and our Packs now operating at maximum capacity, we're hitting the pause button on assessments for new Squad members until June 2024. This allows us to reevaluate our capacity and the waitlist.
Applications Re-assessed June 2024
At The Dog Squad, we pride ourselves on being a local, family-owned, and operated business with a small yet dedicated team. The overwhelming interest in our walks warms our hearts beyond measure! During this time, we're focusing on integrating our newest Squad members into the pack life, nurturing relationships within the team and dogs, and gearing up for exciting new adventures!

Important things to note:
Pack walks must be booked on a recurring weekly schedule a month in advance.
All Pack Walk pricing is per dog, per walk.
Includes pick-up and drop-off on our Mon- Fri shuttles.
An assessment is required before joining a pack and further training may be required.
We do our best to adhere to your preferred walk day; however, packs are determined around the dog's personality, behavioural traits, and residential zoning.
