DGR RUN OF THE DAY #6 
  DISTANCE: 6.9 km DURATION: 1 hour 18 minutes
A surprise run with Charlie today! I was very happy to get to see this guy 😊! We started early as it’s supposed to be quite warm today. However, I’m not sure where the sun went? Charlie was excited when I arrived and came running out of the house ready to go. He kept up really well but of course loves to stop and check things out and to say hi to a few doggy friends. I did let Charlie off-leash for a bit but he wasn’t interested in venturing too far. He kept right by my side ❤️! We made our way home and he got some treats and some extra hugs. I will be excited when we get to go for a run again. The Scoop: lots of stops to pee and 2 poops today. Runner: Denise

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3 
  DISTANCE: 10.1 km DURATION: 1 hour 51 minutes
I just can’t tell you how much I look forward to my runs with Charlie! Although today wasn’t really about running as we were in the peak of the heat and our tongues were hanging down to our ankles. Today’s mission was all about shade, water, stick toss and of course having fun! Mission accomplished! Thanks for braving the warm temperatures today my friend you're the greatest! 2 poos and many pees. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #9

What a great day today! Charlie was ready and excited when I arrived. We took off down the street but smells are tempting for Charlie so he, of course, made a few stops to check them out and leave his mark. About half-way through our run, we ran into DGR Runner Tracy out with DGR dogs Mona and Reilly which made our day! Charlie got an extra treat and Tracy and I got to say hi after not seeing each other in quite a while. We were off again for some off-leash time; exploring and having a roll in the grass before making our way home with both our tongues hanging out. Phew! The Scoop: lots of stops to pee and one poop.

Charlie wasn’t really feeling up for running today and who am I to argue with that sweet face? After all, it’s his adventure not mine! We were on the same page as far as being more social than usual. Clearly, we aren’t a shy pair and took every opportunity to say hello to our other lonely Calgarians..... My friend also pooped himself out after the second game of tossing the old tree limb around, so we headed straight for his favourite swimming hole. Once he was completely satisfied, we leisurely made our way back to the cool comforts of home. Thanks for a very happy outing today Charlie! You made my day!🥰 3 poos and several pees today. Cheers!

Charlie was so happy with our route from last time that he opted to do it again. Fine by me! I’ll do anything for this handsome boy and he knows it🥰After our usual meet and greet, we headed off happily trotting side by side like we have been doing it for years. Once we hit the party zone, it took my friend a while to find a stick but when he did (as I knew he would) it was on like Donkey Kong! I can’t believe I just used that.... now I know I’m losing it. After that, we headed over to the watering hole for a swim and when Charlie was ready we hit the road and made our way back to the abode. Thanks for making my day my friend! 2 poos and several pees. Cheers and have a great weekend! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #5

Hello Charlie! My run today with Charlie was quite a change from the last time. He was feeling much better and moving better as well. Charlie did want to stop quite a bit in the beginning as there were so many things to check out now that the weather is nice There are also so many people out now as well that we had a hard time finding an area to go off-leash but we did finally find a spot to do some good stick fetching. With Charlie tuckered out, we made our way back for a much needed rest. The Scoop: lots of stops to pee and one poop. Runner: Denise DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3

I couldn’t think of a better way to spend a Friday than with my friend Charlie. We always seem to lose track of time when we get together as it’s not hard to do with this guy. He’s a FANTASTIC dude! We ran (believe it or not) to the bottom of the hood and then the games began. Making his way to the watering hole, Charlie went for a rather lengthy but well deserved swim. When he was satisfied, we then made our way back to the comforts of home. Thanks for such a lovely time today Charlie! 1 poo and many pees today. Cheers and enjoy the weekend!

I was happy to see my buddy Charlie today for a run in the sun! I was told Charlie was bit bit slow yesterday so we started out with a light jog and he did okay for the first bit then I noticed him slowing down and falling behind me. He was trying so hard to keep up but it looked like he was a bit stiff and sore and was favouring his right side. I slowed down to a quick walk and he trotted beside me watching me the entire time. Charlie did find a stick along the way and wanted to play. I threw it a few times but then we moved along so he didn’t strain himself too much. I felt bad as I could tell he wanted to move faster but just didn’t feel up to it. Next time - my friend The Scoop: about 5 stops to pee and one poop. Runner: Denise DGR RUN OF THE DAY #7

Charlie and I had a marvellous time today! No surprise there. We hit the road running until, yep you guessed it my friend found a stick. He always looks at me before he picks it up as to ask if it’s okay. Of course Charlie, I can’t refuse that sweet face of yours! And that pretty much set the tone for the rest of our adventure. Thanks for ending my week on a high note Charlie! Take care and we shall see you soon. 1 poo and several pees today. Cheers and enjoy the sunshine! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3

Hello handsome! Well Charlie, clearly Mother Nature didn’t get our memo OR she did and didn’t like what we had to say. Haha, the jokes on us! Anyways, there was no worry about keeping our distance today as we didn’t come across one single person. I can’t blame them, that wind was something else. When I was tossing Charlie’s stick (twig), the wind would catch it and almost bring it back to me. It reminded me of a really bad golf game I once had.... my ball hit a tree and landed really far behind me. Those who’ve been out on a course know exactly what I’m talking about. Anyways, Charlie and I had a delightful time as usual and I am so thankful for the extra time I got to spend with my friend😊 Charlie you're the greatest! 2 poos and many pees today. Cheers and have a fantastic Easter! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #6

Even though Charlie and I appreciate winter as much as the next guy, we decided that we’d like a chance to get to miss it. 🙄 Seriously? Another slap in the face by Mother Nature! That being said today wasn’t all bad because my friend Charlie is like a vacation for the brain. We had a lovely time as usual but spent most of it looking for Charlie’s sticks, twigs, tree bark and even grass! Yes I was tossing whatever my friend wanted me too and then searching for it after. Anything for Charlie! Thanks for hanging with me today Charlie! Always look forward to the time we spend together Sweet Cheeks! 2 poos and several pees today. Cheers and have a fantastic weekend!

An amazing run today with Charlie! A fresh snowfall, nice temperature and an excited puppy ready to go. We kept at a really good pace, saw lots of people and other dogs along the way, and said hello from a distance. I did let Charlie have a bit of an off-leash run but kept a very close eye on him as some people told me they saw a coyote running through the school playground. More dogs out may be bringing them out more during the day. All in all, it was a very nice way to spend some time outside. The Scoop: lots of pees and one poop. Runner: Denise DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

Thank goodness for our furry friends! Charlie made it seem like it was just another typical Friday. It probably helped that the sun was shining and everyone had smiles on their faces. It was nice. As we were involved in our usual game of stick toss, we came across a rather large tower of snow. Not sure what is was (but have a pretty good idea) Charlie went up to it and took care of a little business and we carried on. Charlie then decided at a moment's notice that he had enough and was ready to go back. As we were heading back, we ran into a cat out for a walk with his parents. Milo the kayaking cat! True story, they said he also likes hiking and skiing. think Charlie was a little shocked to see this but they got along just fine. That’s just the type of guy Charlie is! Thanks for making this world a little brighter Charlie! 2 poos and several pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

Get out your calendars folks and mark it down because I’m calling this outing the social event of the season! February 14, 2020. There was no love connection between Charlie and Gracie as I think she’s a bit young for him but, they did become fast friends.😊 At first, Charlie was looking at me thinking “ who is this big boned beast and why is she making us run so fast?!?!???” Oh Charlie not to worry it doesn’t last long.... and of course, I was right and Charlie was pleased. Eventually, we made our way to the off-leash area to play stick toss/keep away (sorry Charlie), you have the patience of an angel my friend. The three of us were having such a good time that we got lost in the moment. One last pooch party and I had to drag these kids back to the ranch. Thanks for such a lovely time today Charlie! Enjoy your nap because you deserve it! 1 poo and many pees today. CHEERS! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY  DISTANCE: 9.9 km DURATION: 1 hour 45 minutes
I always look forward to my Friday’s with Charlie and as usual, we had a delightful time.😊 Charlie was all business for the first 4 km and then he started to get hot. A few snow baths were in order! When we finally reached our party destination my friend turned his focus on finding that perfect stick. With sheer determination and the eyes of an eagle, he passed over many until he found one worthy of our games. And that my friends is how we spent the rest of our time together. Happily indulging each others obsessions. Charlie with his sticks and me with my camera... Thanks for a marvellous time today Charlie! Always great to see you my friend! 2 poos and many pees. Cheers!
