Welcome to the Lincoln Hound Society
The Lincoln Hound Society (LHS) is a group of conscientious dog owners who are seeking to promote responsible dog ownership, community involvement and the formation of city sanctioned Dog Parks within the City of San Jose, California and surrounding areas.
We support Family Oriented, Neighborhood-Based, Free-Roam Dog Exercise areas for responsible dog owners. We do this through conscientious pet ownership-by-example, through outreach to other community groups and by partnership with city and county officials.
Currently at 287 members - and growing. We invite you to join us in our efforts.

Veterinarian, dog trainer and animal behaviorist Ian Dunbar understands our pets' point of view.
Speaking at the 2007 EG conference, trainer Ian Dunbar asks us to see the world through the eyes of our beloved dogs.
"By knowing our pets' perspective, we can build their love and trust." It's a message that resonates well beyond the animal world. To view an interesting and informative video presentation by Mr. Dunbar and comment on his insights, please go to:
