Pack Addas: Real-World Meetups for Pet Parents
Online groups are great, but sometimes you need to get out and meet people who actually get your 'dog-crazy' life. Join our Pack Addas for casual, trainer-supervised meetups, fun activities, and real connections.
An invitation to our first community hangout in Bengaluru. We hosted this 'Pack Adda' at Underdoggs, Hebbal, for like-minded pet parents and their dogs to connect and share stories.

Our events are packed with fun games and activities designed by our experts to help you and your dog engage, learn, and strengthen your bond.
We partner with pet-friendly venues for our Addas. Attendees of our Underdoggs event received redeemable coupons for food and drinks to enjoy during the meet-up.

An invitation to our exclusive community get-together in Pune. We love bringing our members together to share stories and build connections.
At our Pune Adda, members had the chance to meet our local mentors and team members, sharing personal pet parenting stories and experiences.
About this collection
These aren't just park walks. At every Pack Adda, we have expert mentors on-ground to keep things safe and fun, whether it’s at a brewery in Bengaluru or a cozy cafe in Pune. You get to socialize, participate in supervised activities, and grab some food, all while knowing your dog is in a controlled environment.
Why We Do It
We know that being a pet parent can feel isolating. You have questions, you need to vent, and honestly, you just want to hang out with other people who don't think you're crazy for talking to your dog. That is why we started the Pack Addas. It is about taking the support we built in our WhatsApp community and bringing it into the real world.
What to Expect
Our Addas are intentionally different from a random trip to the dog park. Here is what you can count on:
- Expert Supervision: We always have Pack Mentors on-ground. They monitor play styles, de-escalate conflicts before they start, and help facilitate safe introductions.
- Curated Venues: We only pick pet-friendly spots, from places like Uru Brewpark to cozy cafes, where we can book a private or semi-private zone to keep our dogs safe.
- Real Conversations: No judgment here. Whether you want to discuss a training hurdle or just share funny memes about your dog's shedding habits, you will find someone who relates.
- Fun for Humans & Pups: We mix in agility basics, socialization drills, or just quiet time depending on the venue. Plus, most sessions include F&B cover, so you can actually relax with a drink or snack.
Who This Is For
These meetups are for any member of our community who wants to connect. Sometimes we host dog-inclusive events, and sometimes we do human-only mixers to keep it casual. Check the current schedule to see which format is happening next in your city. If you are looking to find your local tribe and get some peace of mind while your dog socializes, we will see you at the next Adda.
The Pack
We started as a simple WhatsApp group and grew into a community of 30,000 pet parents. Our Addas are where we bring that online support into the real world, helping you find your local tribe and letting your dogs play safely.
