Curiosity in a dog is a sign of social health and well-being

About the Dog

Can my dog join the adventure?

Any healthy dog from 18 months old onwards for smaller breed and 24 months old for large breed can join our adventure. For your dog’s health and well-being reason we need to make sure that your puppy is done growing and her/his body has fully matured before participating in any kind of physical activities.

What will my dog benefit from an adventure trip with PAWBies?

We all know that every dog needs enough exercise to keep her/him healthy and limber while reducing behavioral problem such as barking, chewing, digging and other anxiety-related behaviors. Just like humans, dogs release endorphins after a physical activity, allowing them to feel a natural high. Further benefit is that your dog will get some quality time sniffing in a new place other than her/his usual daily walking route. This fulfils a major part of their sensory needs. Sniffing makes them happy and gives them an outlet for their hard-wired natural behavior.

How many dogs join one adventure trip?

Each trip is an exclusive trip for your dog, hence we usually bring dogs on their adventure trip individually. We also offer an adventure for two dogs called “The Socializer” where each dog is assigned to an individual handler. You can book the “The Socializer” adventure trip directly via the booking form. If you would like us to arrange a trip with several dogs please do let us know and we will make relevant preparations.

How do I know that my dog is fit enough to join PAWBies adventure?

We do not possess the capacity to assess your dog’s general health. But we can assure you that the trails we choose for your dog are rather gentle and easy, so if your dog is generally in a healthy condition, it should not be a problem. However, if you are in doubt, the best way is to consult your dog’s vet beforehand who has your dog’s health record most likely for all her/his life.

Will it be safe for my dog to join?

Every dog on our adventure will be equipped with our quality leash and harness free of charge. Each dog has a real-time GPS tracker attached to the harness or collar allowing to pinpoint the exact location of the dog.  If you would prefer us to use your own leash and harness, we will need to make sure that they are in a perfect condition. Your dog will not be let walk off-leash during the entire journey. You can live track the journey here.

My dog is a little reactive to other dogs, can he still join the adventure?

Our dog handlers are experienced in walking dogs with different kind of behaviors, including mildly reactive dogs. During the meet and greet session we will assess the general behavior of your dog where we can then discuss whether she/he would be suitable for the adventure.

What do I need to prepare for my dog’s adventure?

For every dog we will provide enough quality food, healthy treats, fresh water as well as tick-repellent. Unless you insist that we bring along a lunch box for your dog with food specifically prepared by you, you will not need to prepare anything. One thing you could do to help your dog to be able to enjoy the best adventure experience is to have her/him have enough rest before the d-day.

I have other questions, but they are not listed here. What should I do?
