DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 
 DISTANCE: 8.8 km DURATION: 1 hour 58 minutes
Charlie and I went to the mountains today.... the urban mountains that is. My friend started sniffing with a purpose as soon as we left his domain. As usual, I being the ever so generous leader (I thought that was funny too), let Charlie’s nose guide us on our adventure today. What an adventure it was!. Three deer and a moose! How lucky are we to live in such a great place?!?!!! Besides that, everyone out was extra friendly but I suspect that had something to do with the weather. Doesn’t matter to me - I’ll take a friendly smile over the alternative any day! Thanks Charlie for taking us on such a phenomenal Friday frolic! This is one for the books! 3 poos and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3 
  DISTANCE: 7.7 km DURATION: 1 hour 54 minutes
CHARLIE! You sweet little puddin’ pop you. My friend was a little perplexed as we were staying close to home for the first little bit. Walking around the block back and fourth. He looked at me as if to say “ Have you finally lost it Tracy?!?!!!” Trust me Charlie your going to love what I have in store for you today. Surprise! Theodore and Ruth are here to party with us today. Hurray! These two kids hit it off immediately as I knew they would. As for Ruth and I..... kidding! I was so happy to have someone to talk to that can answer back! The four of us had a delightful time despite mother nature’s furry. And before we knew it we had been out for another 2 hour tour. What can I say, time flies when you're in good company. Thanks for making this a spectacular adventure Charlie, Theodore and Ruth! 1 poo and several pees. CHEERS!

What a perfect day for a power walk with my handsome friend CHARLIE! This cutie pie always brings me lots of joy.🥰 My friend was in great spirits even though he had some dental work done earlier in the week. It must have made him feel better because on our way back Charlie found himself a stick and so we had a game of stick toss “ Olympic Style” . And then, just like that Charlie was ready to return home. Thanks for making my week Charlie! 2 poos and many pees today. Cheers! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4

It’s good to be alive isn’t it Charlie! My friend and I had such a joyful excursion today. Wearing our giant smiles (because that’s what happens when we see each other), we headed out and our inner GPS took straight for the trails. Along the way, we ran into a handsome little man named Luka and he was absolutely enamoured with Charlie! It was so cute that I said to his mom... “ So there will be a puppy under the tree this Christmas?!?!!” She laughed but we all know it true. After that, we made our way over to the off- leash area. Charlie was more interested in all the delightful smells that he didn’t even notice the other pups until they were all up in his business (if you know what I’m saying). After that, one short dip in the stinky pond and homeward bound we headed. Thanks for just a lovely time today my friend. Charlie you're the greatest! 2 poos and several pees today. CHEERS!

HAPPY FRIDAY CHARLIE! My friend was on a mission of sniffin’ today. He had no time for our usual Olympic Stick Tossing games it was all about exploring which lead us right down into the coulee. Great choice my friend! There’s nothin’ like a good old fashioned coulee crawl on a warm day to keep us cool. On our travels (in the coulee) we met a couple of city workers who were absolutely lovely! So friendly that we stopped and chatted. They told me what a wonderful pooch I had and let’s just say I agreed with them....😊 Anyways, we continued on until we found ourselves back at the ranch. Thanks for making my day Charlie! You always do! 2 poos and several pees. Cheers and enjoy the weekend. Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

Charlie and I got an early start today to beat the heat and he did great! We ran a bit and explored some pathways that were located in the shade. It was already 20 degrees at 9 a.m. so I let Charlie set the pace. We found a little creek and some new pathways we hadn’t been down yet. I even gave him the option of wading into the water but he was content with just sticking close to me and staying in the shade. Lots of people and dogs to say hello to as well. Everyone was out early this Tuesday morning as expected. A neighbour even offered her sprinkler later if we wanted.....lol The Scoop: lots of pees and one poop. Runner: Denise DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

CHARLIE! I know I’m yelling but I was so looking forward to seeing my friend again as it’s been a while. This handsome fella had a little more perk in his twerk than usual and so we ran for a good 5 km! But after that, it was back to our usual lallygagging pace which involved swimming, stick toss and snacks! All good my friend as it was well deserved. What a fantastic way to end the week! Thanks Charlie you always make my world a little brighter! 3 poos (runny) and several pees. Cheers sunshine! Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #10

It was a last minute run today with Charlie. He was waiting at the door when I arrived excited to get going. We took off down the street and he did really well. It was getting pretty hot out. We rotated walking and running and took advantage of the shade when we could. Charlie is still not convinced about the doggie water bottle so I think it’s going to be a hard sell, I’ll keep trying though. On our run, Charlie does know exactly where the duck pond is and as we got closer his little ears went up and off he went. When I found him, he was neck deep in the water just sitting there with a look of relief on his face. He jumped out, did a good shake, and was pretty much dry by the time we got home. There was no stopping him this time! The Scoop: lots of pee stops and two poops today. Runner: Denise DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4

Yeah, I got to have a run with my favourite guy Charlie today! He was waiting for me when I arrived and was ready to go. We started off a bit slow as Charlie had to get reacquainted with our route so there was some sniffing to do to make sure we were going the right way I’m sure. Charlie kept up pretty well and I started a bit early just in case it got as hot as they said it might. I also brought a doggie water bottle which he wasn’t sure about at first but did finally try near the end. We did some exploring off- leash and Charlie spotted a pond with some ducks and he was heading straight for it when I said no and he turned right around. It was funny to see his reaction, I just pictured a soaking wet dog, which would have been fine as we can always dry him off but the pond was pretty muddy and yucky looking. He’s such a good boy and always comes running when I call. The Scoop: lots of pees and 3 poops. Runner: Denise DGR RUN OF THE DAY #7

YAY! The holiday dog has returned! I have been looking forward to seeing my friend again as it feels like forever and a day since I’ve had the pleasure. And as always, Charlie never disappoints. Sure he’s getting a little long in the tooth but aren’t we all? I know am! We may have not ran as much or played as many Olympic level stick tossing games as usual but we had a fantastic time. Charlie is just a great guy and everyone we came across felt the same way. Thanks for keeping me company today Charlie! So glad to have you back🥰 2 poos and several pees. CHEERS and have a GREAT weekend. Runner: Tracy DGR RUN OF THE DAY #6

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

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 |
