Virginia Best Dog
Hiking Service

All Hike Doggies must meet the following requirements to ensure all our doggies remain safe and have an awesome hike:

• Be neutered or spayed
• Be well socialized around other doggies
• Be non-aggressive or reactive towards: dogs, people, wildlife & other trail users (runners, bikes, etc)
• Be well mannered while hiking on a leash
• Be relaxed & calm during the ride to & from the trailhead in their Zen Den (comfortable individual travel space) aboard our Hike Doggie buses
• Be current on their vaccines (Rabies, Canine Influenza, Distemper, Bordetella, Leptospirosis)
• Be at least 6 months old or 4 months old if leash trained

If your doggie does not meet these requirements, we recommend neutering/spaying (if you are not planning on breeding your cutie) & do targeted training in any area where he/she may need some help so they can enjoy an enriched lifestyle full of outdoor fun with friends!
