REI Workshop: Hiking with Dogs
Experience the beauty of the Pacific Northwest with your furry friend by joining the Washington State Animal Response Team (WASART) at REI Issaquah. This FREE in-person class will teach you how to keep your dog safe on the trails through an engaging slideshow and live demonstrations. You’ll learn about essential dog hiking gear, what to include in a dog trail first aid kit, how to prevent and treat common trail injuries, and even see a paw wrapping demonstration. Hear inspiring rescue stories and discover steps to avoid similar situations. The session will end with a Q&A and a chance to check out some of the technical equipment used in backcountry canine rescues.
