Leader of the Pack

Adventure Pack

Rucksack sat today's hike out due to a slight limp he had when I stopped in to pick up him and Roger Roger.  Roger Roger, Benny, and Oliver took to the trails together and we had a very pleasant hike on another beautiful day.  Benny stopped by various hikers along the way to say hello and get a pat before continuing on.  Oliver received encouragement from passers-by who told him, "You can do it! as he made his way up the mountain.  He got a big wad of spiny burrs stick to his head from sniffing around in the brush and it took a few minutes to pick it all out.  At one point later on, we came across another Labradoodle who was almost a twin to Roger Roger, though with a slightly lighter-colored coat. 

Play Pack

Milo, Isaac, Ruffers, Mamacita, and Sputnik all trotted along the Bear Creek Path in pretty good sync.  We took occasional breaks from walking to let the pack sniff out some interesting spots along the way.  Sputnik was the most tuned into the scents and wanted to make more detours from the path than we did.  He and Ruffers each poked at one of my hands or the other with their snouts every now and then, just to let me know they were with me.  Meanwhile, Isaac and Mamacita followed along behind me and Milo trotted alongside Ruffers and also got a few pokes from her along the way.
