# 🐾 Trail Safety for Dogs: Essential Skills for Every Outdoor Adventurer

If you hike with your dog, this is a don’t‑miss class. As former search‑and‑rescue members, we’ve witnessed far too many avoidable injuries to pets on the trail — and we’re passionate about helping you prevent them.
Join us for a focused, practical session taught by a veterinarian with specialized experience in trail hiking and canine safety. You’ll learn how to recognize early signs of distress, make smart decisions about trail selection, and keep your dog safe, confident, and ready for adventure.

🌿 What You’ll Learn

  • Heatstroke prevention and early warning signs
  • Paw protection for rugged or abrasive terrain
  • Hydration strategies for active, high‑energy dogs
  • Trail readiness and how to pace your dog safely

This class is designed to empower you with the knowledge to protect your dog before problems arise — because nothing matters more than bringing your best friend home safely.

🐕 Important Note
This is a human‑only class. Please leave your dogs/fur babies at home so you can fully focus on learning.
