ABOUT: What We Do

As of noon, the parking lot at Wanaga was still pretty crazy. It has not been plowed. On the ski side of the loop only half of the parking lot is available since it has not been plowed. Lots of traffic. Only 4x4 recommended. Please be patient and maybe consider coming up tomorrow. The outer ski trail loop has been compacted and the snowshoe trail was only partially broken in. Had to turn around after Roxy got covered in snow balls. #wanoga #docpacco #backyardbend #snowdogs #aussiesofinstagram #dogpacorgco

This past Thursday was another FUN snow-filled day! With nearly 3’ of snow in the past week the conditions are amazing, temperature has been perfect and the DOGS just can’t get enough! Our groomers are working hard to stay ahead of it and making it marvelous! Jay and Gerry were instrumental in getting it done-BIG Thanks to their efforts! 🙌 ❄️

Roxy’s first two visits to GoodDog, yesterday and today. We could have taken her earlier this Summer, but we were busy with kid activities. Didn’t quite trust her recall last year 🐾

Have any great shots of your pack at the park? We’d love to share them! DM us 🤩📸

First GREAT day at Wanoga Off Leash Dog Park. Everyone was there-Fat Tire bikers on their trails, snowshoers, dogs and kids! Soft snow was somewhat cooperative, but it prevented us from putting in Classic tracks. We’ll be getting back to our consistent grooming schedule Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sundays If weather allows! ❄️

🐾 Back at it! No lack of trying - Groomer once again thwarted by 2” per hour accumulation this AM. In places the snow is bottomless, creating a lot of fun for us! At 11a, no evidence of ODOT anywhere along Century, Wanoga lot not plowed. ❄️

Please share any updates you may have along the way and stay safe and have fun ⛄️
