About us
We welcome all dog owners interested in practicing structured socialization and connecting with like minded dog owners! This is a safe space for those working on reactivity or reinforcing staying calm in different environments. Our focus is on overall canine health and longevity, and creating safe spaces in public settings to practice calm behavior and building confidence in distracted public settings. Please note this is not a playgroup.
We host pack walks, patio practice, workshops, feature local trainers and fun dog friendly pop up events all over San Diego County. By attending our events and joining our community, you are agreeing to respect and follow the rules below to keep these an enjoyable and safe experience for all attendees. If you’re planning to attend one of our events, please RSVP on Meetup and update your RSVP if plans change to provide us with an accurate headcount.
We recommend arriving early to your first event to find the location and to meet our Community Pack Leader to answer any questions before the event.
- Keep at least 6 feet distance from other dogs or take more space if needed
- Avoid nose to nose or nose to tail greetings until after the walk with permission.
- Dogs must remain on a 6 feet fixed lead before, during and after the walk. No retractable leashes please.
NOTE: If a dog is sporting a yellow or red bandana, that means "I NEED EXTRA SPACE."
All skill levels are welcome. Our events cover all of San Diego County, and we vary our schedule throughout the year. We look forward to meeting you and your pup soon!

The Rooted Sol Approach: Canine Digestive Health Workshop
Real Dog Box, 3625 Dalbergia Street,, San Diego, CA, US🎟️ This is a ticketed event!

Join us for a hands-on, educational workshop focused on canine digestive health and learn how to look beyond symptoms to better understand the systems and root causes that may be contributing to your dog’s health.
Instead of endlessly chasing symptoms with another medication, food, or supplement, we’ll explore how to see the symptoms, think about the whole system, and ask better questions about what may be happening underneath.

🐾 The Digestive System
Learn about your dog’s unique anatomy, digestive function, and microbiome, along with some of the surprising ways digestive dysfunction can show up.🌱 Think Root Causes
Explore common contributors to gut dysbiosis and leaky gut, where conventional approaches may fall short, and ways to systematically support gut health.🔗 Connect the Body

This workshop includes a live demonstration and hands-on learning focused on the digestive sphincters and their potential impact on health.
You’ll learn gentle techniques to assess and support normal function while developing a deeper understanding of how the body works as an interconnected system.Demo dogs are limited.
