Happy Folks & Happy Dogs

We’ve been seeing a lot of these mobile dog gyms pop up on social media, but none local to us.. until I stumbled upon Bear’s Dog Run! I immediately booked a session for our three extremely high energy Labradors. Everyone was extremely professional and beyond friendly - my dogs instantly took to them and quickly picked up on how to use the treadmills. They made sure the dogs were comfortable with the equipment and helped get them going at their own paces during the first session. After completing the first session with them, I knew I wanted to book more.. our dogs were worn out - which doesn’t happen often as they’re high energy/high drive sport/working dogs. The second session was even better and the dogs got so excited when they saw the van out front - we truly can’t recommend this company enough. If you have a high energy dog who needs to burn some steam during these hot days… look no further than Bear’s! We can’t wait for our next session and many more to follow! Dixie, Dallas, and Possum love y’all

Arranged for an introduction session with ease. I appreciate they checked about health history as well as food allergies during the booking. They are quick to return email and text as well as arriving a few minutes early for our appointment. My puppy had an absolute blast after about 2 minutes of getting up in the van, hooked in and figuring out how the treadmill works. She found her groove and maintained a speed I've not seen her run even during zoomies. I'm glad I was able to be there and see it all happen - already looking forward to her next session.

This has been a great experience for us and our Bella. In addition to the great exercise, Charles has helped Bella with her anxiety and reactivity to new people/situations. Charles and Carolina are great communicators and flexible with our scheduling needs. Charles videos Bella's runs so we can capture her progress. Highly recommend!

I've seen these dog runs in other areas but not in Hampton Roads until Bear's Dog Run. Our dogs really laid back and they definitely run at their own pace. The trainer was very patient and adapted between our two dogs who are polar opposites of each other. I've used their services a few times and will continue to in the future.
