Runs are done with the handler on a motorized skateboard that has speed and braking controlled by the rider's body position. A top speed of around 20 mph may be achieved. Which is a quick jog for bigger dogs, and top speed for some smaller dogs.
Each dog wishing to participate in this service must go through an evaluating walk on foot with their rider that clarifies their level of leash training, any reactivity issues towards other dogs/people/cars or the skateboard itself, and ease of being redirected.
So long as your dog is not reactive to a handler, we can get them the physical motion and mental stimulation they need.
Dog Runs
Dog Walks
Dog walks are a great way to keep your furry friend moving and their mind busy. Whether your career keeps you too busy and a regular walking schedule needs to be created, or maybe an injury has you on the couch for a few days, or maybe your dog is reactive and just to strong or difficult to walk, we can help.
Tails Up Pups walks with martingale collars or harnesses. If you don't have one that's ok, we have extras and think it's polite to share!
So long as your dog is not reactive to a handler, we can get them the physical motion and mental stimulation they need.
If you or other family members want to walk the dog, but get tired of the constant leash pulling either because your dog is so strong, or its just annoying and you find yourself getting frustrated and you cut your dogs beloved walks short, let us help! Tails up Pups can teach your dog how to walk politely on a leash and show you and your family how to reinforce it so even grandma can walk the dog! Booked in blocks of 4 lessons, the first 2 will be with the dog and the trainer and the last two will be with the trainer, the dog, and someone from the family to be shown how to manage the newly learned skills.

If your dog is older, or a couch potato, or just will be home alone for a few hours while the family is away for an event, we can help with that! We'll drop by and say hello, let Fido out, check the food dish and water bowl and have a game of tug. Potty breaks last 20 minutes. We'll snap a few pics to send to you and read them a bedtime story to keep them comfy until you get back home.
If your dog is not social with other dogs, we offer human interaction including playtime, games, and 30 minute walk. If you want your dog to have a friend, meet Brodie. He's a 2 year old Great Dane mix. Brodie weighs 90 pounds and he makes friends with all sizes of dogs. He's polite, plays fair, and respects corrections if given. Let us know if you and your pup are interested in making a new friend.
