Just an informal get together for both animal and human socialization during the day .... visit local dog parks, country hikes, etc. Open to time(s) and place(s)!!!

Best Friends Pet Care has started this group to give our camp parents and their furry kids a safe environment to play and make new friends. We offer dog camp during the week and on Saturdays for the dogs to play without their parents! Our goal with this meetup is to give more dog parents a fun and safe place to meet other social dogs and their families in the area. You do not need to be a member of our camp program to join the meetup.

Get out of the house, and forget all the stuff you...have to do. Ask your dog if he wants to go to the park...& see what he says!

Looking to meet other rat terriers and their fans? Then come join the pack. Similar dogs are welcome, too!
