November Pack Walk Fundraiser
Join us for a special edition of our monthly Pack Walk in Griffith Park — this time in partnership with non-profit group LARPBO (Los Angeles Responsible Pit Bull Owners)!
This walk will be a little different — designed to help you and your dog strengthen communication, confidence, and calm through structured walking and simple training drills. Whether you’re working on leash manners or just want a more mindful way to walk together, this is a great opportunity to learn in a supportive, judgment-free environment.
This walk is great for the more shy and reactive dogs to build tolerance or desensitize them safely.
To keep things smooth and safe, we’ll follow a structured format that includes:
✨ Clear spacing and no on-leash greetings between dogs
✨ Designated pauses to reset and reinforce calm behavior
✨ A few easy drills along the route to build focus and engagement
✨ No use of harnesses and flexi/retractable leashes (harnesses can encourage pulling, and retractable leashes make it harder to maintain control and communication between you and your dog. A standard 4–6 ft leash attached to a flat collar or training collar works best for this session.)
Note: For safety reasons, LARPBO only allows one dog per handler to ensure we can maintain proper spacing and focus throughout the walk. There can however be multipler handlers per one dog.
Attendance is free with an encouraged donation to LARPBO, or you can also support by shopping Dogs Only Social Club merch, with a portion of proceeds benefiting LARPBO.
Every attendee will receive goodie bags with Peony Celeste poop bags and Petora soothing serum!
Spots are limited—RSVP now to join the pack!
About LARPBO:
Los Angeles Responsible Pit Bull Owners (LARPBO) is a non-profit organization committed to promoting responsible pit bull ownership and advocacy in the greater Los Angeles area. Through affordable training classes, socialization activities, and community outreach, we aim to foster healthier, more balanced relationships between dogs and their owners. We advocate for a positive image of all "bully breeds," and we strive to prevent surrenders to shelters, offering training as a viable alternative. Our mission includes educating the public about responsible pit bull ownership, challenging stereotypes, and dispelling misconceptions about these loyal, loving, and intelligent dogs. While LARPBO advocates for “bully breeds”, we are open to all breeds and training levels, meeting members where they are without judgment. We also focus on building a supportive community and providing tools for effective dog training to ensure that owners and their pets can thrive together. Through obedience training, socialization, and positive interaction, we demonstrate the true nature of bully breeds as wonderful family pets deserving of fulfilling lives.
