Leader of the Pack

Adventure Pack

Sputnik and Oliver were easily agitated by passing dogs at the outset of our hike today, so I brought the pack off the side of the trail a short distance to have them chill out while more dogs continued to pass.  Milo and Benny were totally content to flop down in the grass and wiggle and sniff around a bit, while I worked at keeping Sputnik and Oliver's attentions on me while dogs went by on the trail.  When they eventually seemed ok, we moved on and they did much better for the rest of the hike.

Play Pack

Coco wanted to make a lot of stops to leave scent marks early on during our walk along the Boulder Creek Path this afternoon.  Meanwhie, Ruffers, Isaac, Sanaya, and Fritz were content to stick to the path after their initial chance to sniff around and relieve themselves.  We met another Malamute today but this one was a 6-month-old puppy.  He happilly greeted the pack and everyone was friendly, except Isaac got a little annoyed when the pup kept poking him and hovering over him.  We stopped by the creek and Sanaya and Coco both hopped in while the rest of the pack decided to stick to dry land today.
