This website is for women who would like to get outside and bring their pain-in-the-ass dogs along. ​ When I adopted my dogs I thought they were automatically going to be good at hiking, biking, camping, paddling, etc., but it turns out that trying to take a bunch of reactive dogs to enjoy the outdoors is hard and I should never believe what I see on Instagram. Goooooo figure.  Most of our early trips have been a disaster (see blog below), but I am slowly learning how to train and manage my dogs so that everyone can be happy.

Sometimes this means we do a lot of training to prepare for an activity, and sometimes this means that I give up and rent a nice, quiet place for the dogs to relax while I go play my sports. 

​

This blog is about my attempts to learn how to train my dogs: all the sources I am using, all the techniques I am trying. I also write about our attempted adventures, successful adventures, hikes, campgrounds, rentals, camp setups, car setups, etc.,  so that you can decide what may work for you and your dogs!
