A Great walk with little Murphy

A new member joined me on a walk last night. His name is Murphy and he's a fiesty shi-zhu who loves to walk. The weather was a little damp but the dogs didn't seem to mind much. Getting out for a walk with the dogs is a great way to explore our nice new paths and to get to know other memebers of the neighbourhood at the same time! I won't be out on Thursday night because I have to work, but please feel free to meet at the PUPS rock by the playground at 6:30. I will try to send Shero with my husband and son. If it's raining stay dry inside and I'll see you Tuesday.

Spring is in the air with a hint of winter

P.U.P.S. is officially underway! Last night we had four walkers and three dogs (Jake, Shero and Summer) on our walk. It was great to get out there and go on a good walk of 8K. This isn't the route we will be doing bi-weekly, but it made for a great kick-off for the group. We were joined by friends (Summer#2, Bella and Cassie) at the field after the walk and they still had energy for a full-on romp!The winter part of the Spring hit us quickly so off to home we went. Can you believe my over-grown puppy still wanted to play? If only I had that kind of energy. Thanks everyone for coming out and we'll see you on Tuesday night weather pending.

Walk cancelled tonight

Sorry, but the weather isn't supposed to be good tonight. Let's try again Thursday night. Same plan.

Wanna make some history? Join us Tuesday @6:30 at the field!

If you want to take part in the very first official dog walking social group this side of Ontario then pick up your leash and head to the field. Shero and Cassy will be waiting for you until 6:40 and then we'll take the pups on a walk. I'm hoping to get a few more walkers this week. Thanks for coming out Raylene!

Dust off your sneakers

The night is just about here. Book off a half hour or so of exercise with your fellow neighbourhood dog-walkers. It is all about having a sense of community spirit and a love for your dog and the great out-doors. The sun is shining brighter as the days gradually get longer. Spring fever is hitting and Shero wants to run and play. What better way to do it AND get out and exercise on a regular basis then walking with a group.
The current route will change over the course of the upcoming weeks to mix things up a bit. We will also plan to have doggy romps at Shubie Park once a month and a parent social at the new local coffee shop sans dogs! Let me know what you think and if you have any ideas by leaving a comment.

My sweet Yorkie-Poo

This is Rosie. She has a few issues, as some of you are already aware of. She doesn't like to walk. As with most siblings, she is polar opposite of her big sister. What she lacks in doggy socialization, she makes up for it with her cuddles and cuteness! Needless to say she will not be joining us on most of our walks, but will make guest appearances once and awhile.

Welcome Aboard

I would like to officially welcome you to PUPS. It is a brand new group which is growing daily. The whole purpose of the group is to exercise on a regular basis with our dogs while with other dog owners. It will be good for our dogs and us! I have set up a route starting at my house., at 6:55. and as I walk towards the school, I'll be joined by other dogs and owners. It will be a 3.5 km loop, but you can hop on or hop off at any time along the way. Our first walk will be March 31st. I'll send out a reminder the day before.
