Leader of the Pack

Adventure Pack

The pack was mellow on the trails this morning. We encountered a handful of other dogs along the way including a little Pomeranian who barked as we walked by. Sputnik, Coco, Mamacita, and Rucksack all just trotted on, earning a comment of praise by an observer for their composure and lack of reaction to the noisy little pup. Mamacita ended the hike with dry ears, as Rucksack didn't show any interest in licking them today.

Play Pack

Thompson looked great after a trip to the groomer, and he seemed to be feeling much better again as well as he hiked along at the CU South Campus trails without a noticeable limp. Colby was much more relaxed today than she has been recently. She wagged her tail as she trotted next to me, and didn't have any jumpy reactions to noises or anything the whole time we were out. Stella and Thompson were the most eager to greet dogs that we passed along our way, while Colby and Coco were content to just keep moving along. Colby did seem to get slightly nervous when a couple dogs passed by close to the pack, lured over by Thompson. She just picked her pace up a little bit and gave a wide berth to the other dogs while Thompson and Stella lingered for a moment to say hello, and Coco kept moving as though the other dogs offered nothing of interest to her.
