Geocache Description:

We just couldn't take those sad puppy dog eyes anymore! Each time we headed out to an event that wasn't dog friendly we got those eyes. Well grab the leash folks and bring Fido along to this one of a kind event! We'll talk about caching with your dog & training tips and give out some cool swag for pups and humans alike. Animal Friends of Pittsburgh will be there with info on choosing the best furry friends for outdoor activities! Meet at the Classroom’s Lab 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM.

Join The Outdoor Classroom and PAGA as we venture into the Boyce Mayview Park with our four-legged friends! This event is most definitely dog friendly. All temp caches will be on dog friendly trails and we're even going to have special caches just for the dogs! Come see the variety of dogs best suited for outdoor activites as the folks from Animals Friends teach us about the different personality quirks of various dog breeds and learn some caching etiquette with your furry caching buddies from fellow cachers.

We're hoping to meet at least 50 caching dogs so we're pulling out all the stops. There will be door prizes, a raffle, some cool swag for temp FTFs, a pot-luck lunch, group photo, a best dressed pup contest, prizes for the smallest and largest caching dog and more! The Outdoor Classroom will provide some mainstays for the pot-luck lunch so please bring something to share. We'll do a group photo, contests and raffles at Noon so if you're planning on just stopping in might as well make it around then but the event will run 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM. Be sure to hike through the park and pick up the many permanent caches we have here in the park!

Jack Daniels can't wait to meet all the other caching pups around the 'Burgh and beyond! This will be a great day to "log a few dogs" too but please keep in mind that all dogs should be well behaved, stay on leash, have their proper shots and remove all "deposits" left in the park. As should their owners
