Spooky Pack Walk with LARPBO in Griffith Park
Details
Join LARPBO for a spooky pack walk to get into the mood for Halloween!
We'll meet in the parking lot near Chrystal Springs Picnic area pad A, B, C in Griffith Park and then walk along the route for the Haunted Hayride.
The Hayride won't be open for business yet and before it starts operating later in the day, the park is open to the public.
There will be lots of opportunities for spooky photos of your pups and yourselves.
Not scared yet? Join us!
Hosted by Allison & Michaela

LARPBO PACK WALK GUIDELINES:
#1 All dogs must be on a secure collar and leash. Dogs using e-collars must also be on a leash. Prong collars should be backed up with a carabiner. Short leashes are recommended (less than 6 feet). Retractable leashes and harnesses are not allowed as they provide little control.
#2 PLEASE NO NOSE TO NOSE CONTACT (dog to dog that is). Always maintain a six-foot distance between dogs. There should be no dog-on-dog interaction.
#3 Please bring doggie poo bags.
#4 Make sure you bring water for you and your dog.
#5 One dog per handler. No exceptions!
#6 Share the road. Move to the right to let others pass.
- All breeds welcome.
- There will be foot traffic, bikes, and several others dogs. If your dog tends to be reactive to any of these distractions, please be EXTRA mindful and prepared.
- **If you have additional questions, please read the full basic LARPBO rules of conduct https://www.larpbo.org/faqs-4**
