“Wild Pup Adventures is the absolute best!”

Wild Pup Adventures is the absolute best! Our labradoodle is totally obsessed with Toby and could not be more excited to go on his adventure day each week with his pack. There is nothing better than seeing your dog out in the wild exploring with all their friends! Running, swimming, sniffing and playing is what dogs should be doing and we are so grateful to have found Toby and Wild Pup Adventures so our pup can do that weekly!

“You could not find a person that cares more about your pup than Toby.”

You could not find a person that cares more about your pup than Toby. The excitement of every dog before they board the adventure express is so cute to watch. You can’t say “adventure” around my dog without him going nuts. He LOVES his adventures! The mental and physical stimulation he gets on a single adventure is 5x a day at daycare or with a sitter. We’ll be a part of the WPA community for life!

“There are no adequate words that encapsulate how awesome Wild Pup Adventure is!!!”

There are no adequate words that encapsulate how awesome Wild Pup Adventure is!!! Our wild pup Lucy has been adventuring with Toby and team since she was six months old and it's by far the best thing we could have ever done for our favorite furry family member. First of all, Toby is an incredible leader and small business owner. Her knowledge of dog care, training, wilderness, and safety is beyond impressive. The outdoor treks that Toby plans and executes for these pups make the rest of us who are stuck at work all day very jealous. We get to live vicariously through the beautiful photos that Toby captures and shares with the parents after each adventure. If you have an energetic dog at home and want to do something special to improve their quality of life, I highly recommend signing them up for Wild Pup Adventure!

“I am so happy we found Toby and Wild Pup Adventures!”

Wild Pup Adventures has been a game-changer for Walt and me. I was really struggling with training my high-energy breed dog who was behaving like a wild bronco so I met with Toby for a training session. She taught me how to read Walt's body language allowing me to connect with him and making my training much more effective. She provided detailed training notes, a follow up progression plan and checkins on the training to mitigate any barriers we were having and to tweak any approaches. With consistent daily training, he was under voice control and had reliable recall in a couple of weeks. He has been joining Toby and her pack on dog adventures for the past year. It is clearly evident that he enjoys his adventure time and dog friends. He watches the youtube channel with me, gets excited when he hears Toby's voice when I am reviewing her instagram stories, and runs circles around me when I pull out his adventure harness. I enjoy adventure time too, Walt comes home tired, and it reinforces his training and recall when I may not have the ability to take him out trail running as much as I'd like. I am so happy we found Toby and Wild Pup Adventures!

“If you want your dog to live the life of his dreams send him on Wild Pup Adventures.”

If you want your dog to live the life of his dreams send him on Wild Pup Adventures. Toby carefully scouts out beautiful wilderness locations near Portland where dogs can play and exercise and explore. She is completely conscientious about each dog's safety and training needs, and equally thoughtful about matching pups to pack mates with comparable energy and skill levels. Even more impressive than Toby's extensive experience is her love and care for the dogs. Django loves Wild Pup Adventures, and so do we.

“Wild Pup days are my dog's favorite day of the week!”

Wild Pup days are my dog's favorite day of the week! Toby is AMAZING and takes the pups on incredible excursions into nature to be dogs and do dog things. She brings them hiking, biking, and kayaking, so it's always an active and action-packed day. It's the same group of dogs each week (eg. the Wednesday pack), so these dogs truly become bff's and love to see each other. The best part is bringing home a totally exhausted dog and looking at all the great pictures Toby took of them that day. Toby is an excellent trainer and handler, which you can see reflected in how much the dogs (and people!) love her. WPA forever!
