Small-pack dog hiking in the Utah foothills
Small, curated pack hikes Monday through Thursday. I pick your dog up, we hike the foothills together, and I bring them home tired and settled. New dogs start with a free meet and greet, no commitment.
Pickup and drop-off included. Millcreek, Holladay, Cottonwood Heights, Salt Lake City and nearby.

Adventure that leaves dogs balanced, not wired
A quick walk around the block rarely reaches the part of a dog that needs real movement, real scent, and real nature. Shanti's Pack does.
Small, matched packs
I match dogs by temperament, energy, and play style, and the pack stays small so every dog is watched, guided, and kept safe.
Real trail time
Foothill trails and seasonal river outings with scent work, enrichment, and calm impulse practice. Dogs sniff, wade, climb, and come home settled.
Door to door
I collect your dog from home and bring them back after the hike. You get a tired, balanced dog and a calmer house, with no driving on your end.

Yes. Dogs in the pack need to be up to date on core vaccinations for the safety of the whole group.
