The Outlaws are a group of nature-loving outdoor folks who insist on bringing their dogs along. Why hike if I can't bring my dog? is our question. We hike mostly in Marin county, but sometimes East Bay too. Summer overnights and weekend camping trips to National Forest destinations. Swimming, BBQ, hiking, fetch, fun.

Socializing your puppy to new people and new dogs is criticial for the long term happiness of your beloved canine companion. This meetup is lead by Lisa Carlson aka "The Pawsitive Professor". Lisa graduated with Honors from the SFSPCA Academy for Dog Trainers and has 10 years professional dog training experience. All puppies 10 weeks to 6 months of age are welcome. Please bring proof of vaccinations. Vaccinations do NOT need to be completed but must be in process.

For those who wish to hike/walk their dogs in a group setting, for those who wish to be around dogs but can't have one, or for those who love to hike/walk and don't mind hiking with dogs present. There will be a combination of easy and medium hikes, fast and slow hikes, and long and short hikes at various times of the day.

We organize fun and adventurous outings for dogs and their owners in the San Francisco Bay Area. Currently most of our hikes are in the South Bay Area. We occasionally offer walks in the afternoon and/or evenings and training sessions with a dog trainer. Our sponsors are businesses that offer their free time to organize hikes, walks and other fun outings for you and your dog. We are solely run by volunteers. We will also post other dog related events as a courtesy. Happy Hiking!
