Your Passport to the Pack
A 1-to-1 evaluation to ensure your dog is ready for the freedom of Social Walks.
The Bridge to Freedom
This assessment is for dog owners who have been attending our Neutral Walks and feel ready to progress to off-lead Social Walks. It's how we ensure every dog joining the pack is set up for success.
Duration
60 Minutes
Location
Bournemouth
Cost
£20
Prerequisite
1+ Neutral Walk
You wouldn't throw a non-swimmer into the deep end, and I won't throw a dog into a pack unless I know they can swim.
Social Walks are off-lead environments. To keep them safe, fun, and bullying-free, I need to know exactly who is joining the group. This is a 60-minute, 1-to-1 session. It is low-stress and non-judgmental.
What We Evaluate
The Connection
Does your dog check in with you? Can they look to you for guidance when uncertain?
The Recall
Will they come back when called, even with distractions present?
The Stooge Test
I will bring my dog Aslan to observe how the dogs interact in a controlled setting.
The Outcome
There are only two possible results—and both are positive.
Pass
You gain immediate access to book Social Walks. Welcome to the next level of freedom for you and your dog!
Not Quite Ready
That's okay! I will give you specific feedback on what needs work and can refer you to a trusted trainer if behavioral modification is needed.
This isn't a test you can fail—it's a checkpoint that sets you up for success. Whatever the outcome, you'll leave with clarity on your next steps.
