Does your dog like to walk in the woods, play in the water, and see their dog-friends or make new ones? If the answer is yes, then join us for our LI-DOG Pack Walk™ at Massapequa Preserve on Sat., Aug. 19th at 10 in the morning!

We’ll be walking the Fire Road Trail, a flat, wide, mostly shaded, dirt trail within Massapequa Preserve. We’ll walk about a mile down the trail, then turn onto a smaller trail that ends at a clearing with a creek and shallow pond. We’ll stop there for water and to let the dogs wade and swim.

Once the dogs have played and cooled off, we’ll head back up the trail to where we started. The entire walk will cover about 2 miles and take about 2 hours, including their “playtime”.

Please note: While there may be off-leash dogs on the trail, dogs attending the pack walk must be kept on-leash on the trail. Please be aware that some people may take their dogs off-leash when they’re playing in the water.

Please NO retractable leashes as we are walking in a group and dogs and their humans can get tangled.

Please don’t forget to bring poop bags, as pick up is a must, and while the trail is shaded by trees, don’t forget to bring water for you and your pup!

How does a nice, easy walk along a shaded path in the woods with your dog on a summer morning sound?

Want to meet other dog owners and their dogs? If either of these sound good, then please join us for our LI-DOG Pack Walk™ at Massapequa Preserve on Sat., Aug. 17th at 10 o’clock in the morning!

On our Aug. 17th Pack Walk™ –a guided, group on-leash dog walk–we’ll be walking the Fire Road Trail, a flat, wide dirt trail within Massapequa Preserve. We’ll follow the trail for a bit over a mile and then turn onto a shorter trail towards a clearing with a creek and shallow pond where we’ll stop for water and photos. Some dog owners bring their dogs to swim in the creek and pond. Once we’ve rested, we’ll head back up the trail to where we started.

PLEASE NOTE: While there may be off-leash dogs on the trail, dogs must be kept on leash on the trail. Please don’t forget to bring poop bags as pick up is a must, and while the trail is shaded by trees, don’t forget to bring water for you and your pup.

Please NO RETRACTABLE LEASHES as we are walking in a group and the dogs and their humans can get tangled.

The Fire Road Trail within Massapequa Preserve opened to on-leash dogs in early 2015 in response to LI-DOG’s campaign to get more access to Nassau County parks. Please help us protect access to the preserve by keeping dogs on-leash and off the bike path.

Meet us on the dirt path near the north end of the Mansfield Park parking lot. Watch out for bikes as you cross the asphalt bike path to the dirt path!
