Leader of the Pack

Adventure Pack

We took Bluebell Road on our way up to the Third Flatiron and on our way back down today to keep less muddy again.  The trails were a bit more traveled today and the pack greeted several hikers.  Milo milled around one spot along the Flatiron Loop to avoid the final uphill climb, but went up just fine with a little encouragement.  We passed a family of deer while most of the pack was on leash.  Benny was off the leash and he perked up and hopped a few paces up the hill toward the deer, but turned back and rejoined the pack when I called him.  If Rucksack were off the leash, I doubt he would have showed the same restraint.  Sputnik did a good job today and stayed calm as we passed other dogs.

Play Pack

Thompson pulled less on today's walk, which was a nice change in pace.  Sadie was pretty noisy about the other dogs we passed during the walk, but we did some good work on staying calm and quiet in the car while picking up and dropping off her packmates.  Isaac, Ruffers, and Luca all walked along nicely through the neighborhood.  Isaac took an opportunity to roll around in some freshly cut grass.
