About Us
Ever read those cringy social media posts about quitting your 9 to 5 and following your passion? Well, I'm really sorry, but that's what I did this year. My name is Brad and I decided to follow my passion and transition into freelancing as a data analyst. This career change not only gave me the professional freedom I craved but also allowed me to pursue another passion of mine—spending time outdoors with dogs. I am the proud owner of two wonderful greyhounds, Pax and Ruby, who are my constant companions on our frequent walks through Wellington’s stunning natural reserves.
Dog walking has become an integral part of my life, providing a perfect balance that was missing before. It combines my love for nature with the joy of canine companionship, ensuring that both my dogs and I stay active and happy. Through Big Dog Adventures, I aim to share this enriching experience with your dogs, offering them the same fun and adventure that my greyhounds and I enjoy every day. Join us, and let’s embark on exciting nature adventures that your furry friends will love!
