Milo, Juno & Sporty arrived at Camp A Dog's Way for a visit. We picked up Otto, Muskoka & Roxy and headed to the park. All pups were very social, making their rounds with all the other pooches. Cookie, Rocky, Dutch, Belle and Ben headed High Park for an afternoon outing. The trails were filled with fun and frolicks. Great walks!

whoa! up, up and away!!

Whoa! Windy walks!!! Hunter & Dante strongly pushed through the winds that whipped around us. Belle, Cookie, Rocky, Jasper, Ben and Roxy braved it out and headed to the lake. The waves were crashing up on the rocks and misted around us. The park was muddy.. but the pups raced through, with no care of the whirly winds. Watson & Pepper kept their teeny paws grounded while walking lakeside. Otto, Muskoka, Odin and Joey dashed through the fields, taking care of business right away. After, we walked through neighbourhoods.. picking up sticks, meeting passing pups and just enjoying the walk.

All prepared for nothin'!

We were all prepared for the worst of the weather, but were lucky that the pouring rain held off until after the A Dog's Way packs were finished walks  :)

Harley has the right idea!

Hunter and Dante leisurely strolled around the neighbourhood, taking it easy with each stride. Cookie, Roxy, Jasper, Ben, Belle and Rocky watched the down pour from inside the dogmobile. The rain stopped just as we arrived to High Park...lucky us! The sun tried to peak out while Afrodyte, Pepper and Duncan headed out for their potty breaks. At Garnetwoods.. we arrived just as the rain started to come down. Joey, Jake, Dixie, Muskoka, Odin didn't seem to mind one bit.. Otto stayed close, happy to have his jacket and Harley had the right idea... he took shelter in the dog house at the park.

just in the nick of time! :)

Ursus, Eiger, Odin & Harley headed out for an enjoyable and long walk, to start the week off on the right paw. Joey, Belle, Dutch, Muskoka, Roxy and Molly headed to High Park for their walk. Muskoka was first joined on-leash by Roxy, who was a social butterfly and wanted to play with every other pup but her pack in the park. Next came Belle, who was having too much fun in the water along Spring Road. After that, Joey went full speed through the trails and then joined the others. Molly and Dutch stuck behind watching the others, who each had a case of the 'mondays'. We got back to the car just in the nick of time.. as the rain started to come down.

Happy Easter

The boys are in full bloom and are having a great weekend! Harley, Odin, Ursus & Eiger started their day at Jack Darling park then headed to the Beach for a long stroll along the boardwalk. We hit the offleash park and lake before strutting through the streets ahead of the Easter Parade coming through. The pups enjoyed the afternoon easter festivities with the fam on the back deck. happy pups!!!

Hope you had a Good Friday!

Belle joined Odin & Harley for an afternoon in High Park. Belle & Odin, happy pups.. rolled around in the dirt...I was started to think yellow lab was trying to be a little more like black lab, Odin. Fun frolicks!
Happy Easter to all!!!

a day of adventures

Cookie was on quite an adventure today, she was focused on the sounds of spring and the frolicks of squirrels. Jasper, Roxy and Ben kept close to her, excited to follow what she chased. Belle watched at the tops of hills for the others to come by.. and then she pounced. Rocky gknawed on sticks, breaking them in bits with one bite.
Joey, Otto, Muskoka, Odin and Harley were excited to go for their walk. All took care of business and strutted down the street like they owned it.

Murphy's Law!

Odin, Harley, Cookie, Joey, Roxy and Muskoka went to Garnetwoods and had the park to themselves. All was calm and the pups took their time exploring the grounds. Tory, Belle, Ben, Dutch, Maddie and Molly were interested in the smells as well. They all sniffed out their own path. The dogs were peacefully engaged in nature today!

april showers,,,

Hunter & Dante came rolling down the stairs to hit the streets. The rain surfaced many smells to keep occupied. Cookie, Jasper, Ben, Belle, Rocky and Muskoka arrived at prime park time. The pups had lots of company to play with and chase around. Tongues were hanging out the side of their mouths on our way out.
Bailey & Duncan watched over the wide spread of colours through the lake. Watson took his time lakeside, stopping at every tree along the way. Afrodyte led the way and took me for a walk.
Otto, Joey, Jake, Dixie, Odin & Harley surrounded me as we walked, and took turns taking the lead of the pack.

monday madness

The dogs were full of fun energy and had a riot running through the paths and hills. They all were in a playful mood and happy to see their friends after the weekend.

bright and warm sun

Hunter & Dante were wide awake for their morning walk. Otto, Roxy, Rocky, Ben & Jasper ran through the valley up and down the hills. They each took part in exploring nature, a pup chase and a turn at leading the pack. On Teddy Bear's outing, he found a great big stick and looked for me to chase him. Afrodyte was very curious and stopped many times to watch people as they were. Odin, Joey, Muskoka, Cally, Harley and Prada had an afternoon romp before heading out for thei walk. The pups had big smiles on their face and just looking at them, made me happy!  :D

I wish I had 6 hands!

I wish I had more hands, 6 to be exact! While out and about with the pups, I took time with each for cuddles. All were very loving and at times, I had to go back and forth from pooch to pooch because all wanted attention at once. Always great to show up to a wagging tail....lucky me!

just keep walking, just keep walking..

Harley, Prada and Cally (the newest camper at Camp A Dog's Way) took a romp through the streets as the day began. Roxy, Rocky, Ben, Jasper, Otto & Muskoka were happy to hike through the fields at Lambton Park. The dogs were electric and brought a huge smile to my face. All were loving the new spring air and we took breaks for cuddle time. Muskoka was having too much fun and asked to tag along with me for the day.. our midday potty breaks took us to see Watson, Bailey, Duncan & Afrodyte. We then picked up the campers, Odin, Joey, Jake & Dixie... and welcomed friend, Sally to join us for a stroll alongside the Etobicoke Creek. We found a nook to romp around and splash our feet in the water. It was home time after that, Muskoka was pooped! Before heading back up the hill to the car, Muskoka laid down and wouldn't move until she rested and of course, rolled around in the grass. So.. Odin, Joey, Jake, Dixie and Cally joined her. Again, it was pup declared cuddle time and I didn't argue. Hunter, Casey, Dante & Gwen were happy for dinnertime when I arrived. All headed out for a potty break and Hunter & Dante leashed up for their walk. Cally just didn't have enough fun for the day.. so after dinner, she convinced me to take her and friends, Harley and Prada for an active jog around the neighbourhood. We stopped at the park on the way back home and the dogs patiently waited while I jumped on the swings for a cool down. What a happy day!

Holy Smokes Batman...it's hot out there!

Abby arrived ready to run.. Harley & Prada leashed up and led the race. Just beautiful out! Molly, Maddie, Muskoka and Abby took a lovely stroll through Bloor West before hitting the path at Tom Riley Park for a sniff around. The warm breeze kept us cool in the afternoon warmth :) along with the spits of rain just as we headed back to the car. Afrodyte got the full body scratch after her trek down the street. Cookie, Joey, Ben, Dutch and Abby scouted & discovered on the trails at High Park. Joey, Dutch and Ben found a very muddy puddle and splashed around like a pigs in mud! Cookie spotted just about every other critter on the trails, including every dog... Abby couldn't keep up! Harley & Prada got on their runners and went for a pre-dinner jog. The A Dog's Way pack is enjoying every minute of this great weather!  :D

another glove bites the dust!

Nikki arrived at Camp A Dog's Way and found a friend in Abby. All day long, both frolicked round & round.
We had the park again to ourselves.. Belle dug a hole that later Ben laid in to cool off. Roxy and Jasper chased each other around like brother and sister. Rocky made his way around the park, finding sticks to chew on. And, another glove bites the dust.. Belle stole another one of my gloves and got all the dogs involved in a game of chase, with breaks to tear pieces off as a tease.
The A Dog's Way afternoon was filled with lots o' labs.. and Muskoka! Odin, Joey, Nikki, Abby, Belle and Muskoka spent an afternoon full of fun and frolicks. Our walk turned many heads, one big happy pack! I was entertained beyond belief  :)

another glove bites the dust..

Wednesday, April 6, 2011

Harley, Abby and Rocky headed out early for an active walk. The three owned the sidewalks & streets. Roxy, Madison, Molly, Ben, Belle and Dutch went down by the lake where they tore it up. They were all involved in circles of chase and got other visiting pooches involved. Pepper & Watson met pup friends out on their potty break while Bailey had the paths to himself. Muskoka, Odin, Joey, Abby and Harley were social and playful one another. They romped around before going for a stroll through the hood. Pepper & Watson were excited for another outing and special treat.

Nothing like a run to start the day off on the right paw

Sammy, Abby and Harley headed out for an early morning run.. they kept up and loved the pace. The A Dog's Way pack headed from Garnetwoods to the Lake and then down & around the Etobicoke Creek. Our walks were filled with frolicks and fun!

The sounds of Spring...

Abby arrived this morning to Camp A Dog's Way, not just for the day but for the week! She greeted Sammy & Harley with wagging tails. Abby & Sammy romped around before heading out to pick up Roxy, Muskoka, Molly & Madison. We hiked the trails and raced through the empty fields. The pooches had the outdoors to themselves and each were very social with one another. Afrodyte, Watson, Pepper & Bailey enjoyed the midday sun peaking out from the remaining rain clouds. Otto, Joey, Cookie, Ben, Belle & Dutch took in the fresh breeze off of the lake during their outing. The pups had the park again to themselves and were very cohesive as a pack. Back at Camp A Dog's Way... Sammy, Abby & Harley were ecstatic to go for an early evening run to enjoy the rest of the day's warmer weather.

Spring had arrived folks! let's hope :)

Peaceful walk to start the day and head into the weekend. Otto, Maddie, Rocky, Dutch and Belle had the park to themselves. The birds chirped and the sun shined while each pup took it easy with breaks of play & exploration. We ended the walk off chasing Belle after she picked up my glove and started a game. 
Joey, Muskoka, Harley, Motown and Sammy took care of business at Camp A Dog's Way before heading out for a very leisurely stroll around the neighbourhood. Happy Spring this weekend!!
