Leader of the Pack

Adventure Pack

Ruffers, Mamacita, and Sputnik hiked at the Chautauqua together this morning.  Everyone lingered for a few minutes at the trailhead to sniff around before hitting the trail.  We passed a very young puppy and the pack passed on by pleasantly.  However, Ruffers and Sputnik pulled at their leashes as we approached another dog a little while later, and Sputnik started to growl so I pulled the pack aside and had Sputnik lie down and chill out for a minute.  Sputnik had been getting better and better about staying cool with unfamiliar dogs, but he's taken a step back the last couple days.

Play Pack

Isaac leapt into the Creek when we stopped by it on our walk this afternoon.  Sanaya and Coco both spent a while on the bank, touching their paws and noses to the water before braving the drop into the water.  Meanwhile, Stella hung out on dry land and waited for her packmates to be done with their swim break.
