Canine Nutrition Session & Pack Walk at The Barktorium Escondido

Join us for a pack walk around downtown Escondido and a special Canine Nutrition session afterwards at The Barktorium, Escondido’s newest pet shop!

We’ll start with a short, structured 30-40 minute pack walk around Grape Day Park and the downtown flat side walk streets to get everyone moving together.

Afterward, we’ll gather inside The Barktorium for a relaxed one-hour session with Ruby, founder of Real Dog Box. There will be plenty of seating and cool AC available! Ruby will answer questions and share practical guidance on canine nutrition, including how fresh foods can help common concerns like allergies, dental hygiene, arthritis and gut health.

• Fresh Real Dog Box air-dried treats and chews available to shop
• Canine nutrition resources and guidance you can actually use
• Casual, low-pressure setting to connect with other dog owners

This meetup blends movement and education — a chance to build community while learning how to better support your dog’s health.

Please arrive a few minutes early to allow time for street parking.

Note: This is a hybrid event, not a standard continuous pack walk. We’ll begin with a short walk, then transition into a seated group discussion.

We have grown an amazing and supportive community. We welcome ALL dogs, breeds, and temperaments. However, if it’s too much stimulation for your dog, no judgement if you take extra space or need to leave early.

All regular rules from our Pack Walks apply- stay on leash, no retractable leashes, keep space and only greet with permission please.
