Doggie Day Trips

We want every day to be your dog's best day ever! Run by Gregor Schmatz, the pack travels outside of the city and spends the day walking in the countryside to enjoy off leash socialisation at its best, all while working on good manners and participating in fun activities. A great alternative to dog day care for Edinburgh’s active dogs who love the outdoors!
