Who is our club suited to...
Pickles Cani Club is for all dogs over 10 months—big or small, bouncy or calm, friendly or reactive, rescue or pedigree. Whatever their size, temperament, or energy levels, every dog can experience the focus, freedom, and fun that Canicross brings. Our club is the perfect fit for:
Beginners – new to Canicross or running, looking for a safe, supportive introduction.
Rescue dog owners – especially those with dogs who struggle with confidence, anxiety, or excess energy.
Active pet parents – who want to give their dog both a physical and mental outlet beyond the daily walk.
Runners of all levels – from casual joggers to budding racers, Canicross adapts to your pace.
Community seekers – people who’d love to connect with like-minded dog owners in a friendly, non-judgmental space.
At Pickles Cani Club, it doesn’t matter if your dog is calm, reactive, high-energy, or laid-back. We meet every partnership where they are, helping both dogs and humans build confidence and enjoy the journey together. Because Canicross isn’t just about running—it’s about connection, teamwork, and discovering what you and your dog can achieve as a team.Dogs under 12 months are only able to take part in our Trek-2-Run group for safety reasons.
Where it all begun
Meet Freddy, our rescue dog, has a story as inspiring as it is heartwarming. When he first came into our lives, he carried with him the weight of a difficult past. His early experiences left him anxious, reactive, and often overwhelmed by stress. Like so many devoted pet owners, we tried everything—working closely with trainers, behaviourists, and vets—to help him find peace. Yet despite all the effort, nothing seemed to truly ease his anxiety or allow him to thrive.Then we discovered Canicross. At first, we were sceptical—could running together really make such a difference? To our surprise, it did. Almost immediately, Freddy transformed. The stress began to melt away, replaced by focus, excitement, and pure joy. It was as though he had finally discovered his outlet—a way to channel his energy, grow in confidence, and strengthen his bond with us.Over time, Canicross didn’t just change Freddy’s life—it changed ours too. Running together became our shared passion, leading us from training runs to race days, each mile building Freddy’s confidence and deepening our connection.This journey with Freddy was the spark behind something bigger. In October 2024, Jack’s passion for running and coaching came together with Freddy’s transformation—and Pickles Cani Club was born. The club was created to give other dogs and their humans the same opportunity: to experience the joy of Canicross, to build confidence, and to unlock a deeper bond through movement.Today, Freddy is more than our rescue dog—he’s our inspiration, our running partner, our “head coach,” and the heartbeat behind everything we do at Pickles Cani Club. His journey reminds us that with patience, perseverance, and the right outlet, every dog has the chance to thrive.
