True Canine
Biological Enrichment

At Hudson Pack Adventures, we are based in Hudson, Massachusetts-based dog care company that believes true canine enrichment goes beyond simple neighborhood walks; it requires engagement, socialization, uneven surfaces, a wider array of scents, and structure. We offer group and solo trail adventures, overnight adventure daycare, and hybrid basic training/trail enrichment services. 

 

As a commitment to all dog rescues, we donate a portion of all proceeds to help fund local MetroWest dog rescues :)

Best for: Socially balanced dogs needing physical and mental outlets. Most Optimal Enrichment

Our overnight service offers a stress-free alternative to large, crowded facilities by providing your dog with dedicated, 1 on 1 attention in a secure and comfortable environment.

Meet the Owner

Justin Growel
Pack Leader & Founder

 I have spent my entire life caring for dogs, leading local pack walks and volunteering at rescue's. This has allowed me to gain experience with dogs of all temperaments. I enjoy handling the full array of dogs from our well mannered pack members, but also inlcuding the "more difficult" dogs (larger breeds, reactive, and aggressive dogs). I am a life-long dog lover/owner and a former college football All-American.

​

Our focus is on building dogs' confidence by conquering their surroundings and using structured pack movement to give them the correct socialization and full biological enrichment. We have helped owners all over the MetroWest turn their reactive and anxious dog into a calm, confident, moldable member of the family :)
