I like contrasts: outdoors vs. indoors, natural vs. man-made, physical vs. cerebral.  This group will attempt to celebrate these contrasts through monthly activities that will usually combine a moderate walk or hike combined with a museum visit, or something similar in the realm of the visual arts. These events will start 10-11 AM on Sunday, and last 4-6 hours.  You should be able to comfortably walk at least 5 miles within two hours.  This will mostly be level walking on pavement or dirt paths, …

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, however, 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 cla …

I need to start walking, and I want to meet new friends, so I thought I'd combine the two into one meetup. I do better if I'm accountable to others, and it's always more fun to do things in a group, so I'm hoping we could make a commitment to each other to meet a certain number of days a week, say 3 or so, whatever works for the group. I'm not looking for a hiking group, but one that does more gentle, less ambitious exercise, say walking at a regular pace (not slow, but not too brisk, either--at …

Instead of bringing dogs to a fenced in "boxing ring" to rough house and potentially get hurt, we are bringing them on a focused walk in their most natural state - in a pack. We can do simple paved trails, such as Bare Cove or Pond Meadow Park. Or we can step it up a notch and try the paths less traveled, and go for hikes on the Blue Hills. Location suggestions are welcome! So, all friendly pups and their owners, come join us on our walks for exercise, socialization and some fresh air. Rememb …
