I.J. Idrizaj
Expert Dog Hiker
Personal Background
I.J. grew up in Norwalk, CT and has always loved being around animals, especially dogs. He studied Anthropology at the University of Vermont and also spent a year living in Salt Lake City, UT.
He has always had a love for the outdoors and is grateful for the opportunity to be able to combine his love for dogs and fresh air on a daily basis.
When he is not out with Active Dog, he enjoys reading, getting together with friends, and convincing himself that the Mets are going to win it all this year.

⭐️Dog of the Week⭐️ COOPER
Cooper has been hiking with AD for a little over a year now and how glad we are that he joined our pack! This beautiful bouncing boy is always ready to welcome the van with a ball 🎾 in his smiling mouth, and leads the pack on the trails (especially when it comes to finding mud puddles!) Rain or shine, Cooper is always ready for a romp and is one of the happiest pups around. Just look at that grin! 😁 Congratulations Cooper! 💛 ... See MoreSee Less
