Welcome, and thank you so much for your interest in our beloved bully breeds! A "bully breed" is a slang term that loosely refers to any dog breed of bulldog ancestry, chief among them, the American pit bull terrier. The NEBBC has a special affinity for any breed that is discriminated against. All breeds and ages are welcome at our events! You need not have a bully to be part of our group, only a love of them! So grab your pooch and join us for a walk, hike, fundraiser, training class or play d …

This Meetup is for anyone who loves bully breeds (American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Boxers, etc.) and wants a chance to meet up with other bully breed owners and socialize their dogs with pack walks and off-leash hikes/walking adventures, and an occasional meetup at a dog park or dog-related event going on in the area. I look forward to meeting responsible bully breed owners that can restore the tarnished reputations these breeds have.

I have 2 standard poodles who love to play and socialize. We go to a couple of other dog meetups but don't meet too many other big dogs for running and more robust play. We're hoping to get together with any larger breeds who like to play and run too. We live in Southie, but we especially like Cat Rock Park in Weston. We are open to anyplace we can be off-leash in a safe or fenced place.

This Meetup Group is for giant breed dogs and their owners to socialize and share tips, stories, and community with one another. Only we know what it is like to have the "Is that a pony" question asked over and over and over and .... This will be a group where you won't have to hear that question (or any mention of saddles). And it is especially rough here in NYC where a large breed dog tops out at 45 pounds. We will be based in Brooklyn, and I imagine initially at least, will be mostly mee …

Something that all dogs need: Exercise, Walks & Mental Stimulation!! Pooky's club was originally established in 2003 as a "cockers" only meetup. I created it to exercise & socialize my "reactive" dog around other dogs & to meet other cocker owners in the area who love the breed as much as I do. Soon thereafter, people started contacting me saying that they didnt have a cocker, but could they come pleazzzze? So effective 2006 I changed it to Pooky's All Breed Dog Walking Club! All breeds & ages …

Every rescued dog is a success story, and this group can be a place to share your dog's own story while meeting other people who have made the same commitment to saving an animal from a shelter, the streets, or any other bad situation. Join us for a casual leashed walk around Prospect Park in Brooklyn. Since many people are kind enough to adopt dogs with behavioral issues, this isn't a playgroup, but rather a low-key pack walk. Our walks generally last 1.5 hours, and may involve some hills and/o …
This is a group for anyone with a Lab or Lab mix who enjoys the outdoors and wants their dog to socialize with other Labs.

We will meet a couple times a month at different places around the state or in MA. I'm also looking for some ideas for new places to go.

This is a group for dog owners who like to walk their dog at Great Brook Farm in Carlisle. I enjoy taking my Boston terrier for walks there and thought it would be fun to form a pack walk.

Like most greyhounds, my big beautiful brindle boy, Jacoby, loves other greys immediately. I thought I'd like to let him meet other greyhounds in the area. We can walk, we can play, we can chase. And we can make new friends -- greyhound and human alike. Please note: This group is meant for greyhounds and their humans only, as greys typically get nervous around other dog breeds. We'll stick to walking in parks where the terrain isn't so bad until the winter thaws out a bit! Be sure to check out t …

PAWS is a nonprofit organization incorporated in 1962 by Westport, Connecticut resident Betty Long to rescue homeless dogs and place them in permanent homes. In the early 1980s, our rescue efforts were expanded to include cats. PAWS rescues & rehomes approximately 115 dogs and 435 cats annually. Many of the dogs faced euthanasia at local pounds and most of the cats that we help are strays and abandoned cats that roam our streets. A portion of the pets that come to PAWS have been relinquished by …
