With it so rarely snowing in San Diego County, Erin and I jumped at the chance to take the pack out for a hike when it snowed in the Cuyamaca Mountains early winter of 2009. Having off leash fun is definitely what we are all about! We packed up our 7, and a friend, and made the 45 minute drive out the the mountains. What a blast! I love seeing the dogs run around like hooligans, and I really love that they will come when called (wait for the whistle)!!! For more information about off leash training, and having a dog that can listen, call 619-818-6462. We’ll come out to meet you in your home, and show you what our training is all about!
