Ugly Dog Adventures is a dog recreation service offering group pack adventures. We specialize in dog socialization and offer full service dog pack adventures daily. Dogs receive excellent socialization, exercise and positive training in our program. Currently, we are an exclusive service located within the City of Orange. California.

Ugly Dog Adventures offers leashed pack adventures mid-day 5 days a week, Monday-Friday. Our group walks and/or hikes are 1 hour long, due to travel time dog is away 2-4 hours. Our packs consist of dogs of all ages and sizes. We normally hike 2 miles depending on the physical requirements of each pack. Pick up and drop off at your home or office is always free. Our service area includes the City of Orange and up to a 5 mile surrounding radius. We enjoy hiking at our local regional OC Parks including Irvine Park, Santiago Oaks Park, Yorba Regional Park and many various trails throughout our community.

In addition to our signature pack adventures, we are also available to provide your dog with walks, potty breaks, boarding, daycare, overnights at your home and private training. Currently, we can only offer our additional services to clients only.
