Andrew Solis and Ken Price are true dog devotees. As longtime animal advocates and steadfast vegans, the two have found purpose and community as co-founders of Rescue Train Repeat, a one-on-one dog training service based out of their apartment in Bushwick. They offer a variety of dog training packages, and travel to clients in the greater New York City metropolitan area as needed. 

In addition to training, Rescue Train Repeat offers monthly “pack walks” where neighborhood dog parents can get together and enjoy a group stroll with their dogs through one of several parks in Brooklyn or Queens. Solis leads the monthly walks in fully glam drag queen attire, donning vibrant wigs and stunning sequin corsets and jumpsuits as they offer guidance for fellow walkers along the way. 

“The idea of pack walks began with the intention of connecting my training alumni with each other,” explains Solis. “I want to help build a community outside of Rescue Train Repeat for dog parents to turn to when they need support.”
