DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1 
  DISTANCE: 7.0 km DURATION: 1 hour 35 minutes
Good morning and Happy Monday kiddos! Hey guys, it looks like summer is finally here 🤣. What a beautiful day! Shadow was all excited to go. He went straight to my car to see his friend. Yup, my Malinois (Kopek) came along today! It has been a while since those 2 friends saw each other. Today was Kopek's first serious outing since the cold snap. Shadow and I are happy to report that he behaved like a star! We got to see an amazing sunrise and Chinook arch. Life is beautiful ! We finally got to take some nice photos. Then it was girlies' turn. They too were very happy to go until we encountered a coyote. Well, I had no idea those girls had some guard dogs spirit in them. They barked, jumped, and carried on like crazy! That coyote knew that he needed to stay away as those gals had their boxing gloves ready to go The Scoop: Shadow had a poop and many pees. Java and Pinky had a poop and a pee. Miss Mo had only pee. Runner: Fab

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4 
 DISTANCE: 6.3 km DURATION: 1 hour 27 minutes
Look at you Mr. Shadow - all ready & dressed to go. It was -40C when we went out this morning‼️ The Portuguese Water Dog is a hearty warrior breed. There was no one to been seen at all today. This makes the run (for Shadow) waddle (Michelle) very tranquil. We did the berm route in reverse and why oh why does the pathway seem so much harder going up?🤣. All the Porties are fit as fiddles so they never have to pause or huff & puff. Shadow was out approx. 57 minutes. It was then Girl Power Half Hour (actually 23 minutes outside). Miss Java, you are the heartiest of them all. Let's roll and lounge full belly down in the snow. Miss Mocha was happy to keep up with everyone. Pink was posing playfully for me. Shadow’s Bathroom Business on Doggy Logs. was 10 pees, 1 poo. The gals had 1 poop each. Miss Pink has 2 pees. Javy Jav & Miss Mo had 1 pee each. Runner: Michelle DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Hello my friends. Brrr, another cold morning! I got out of my car without looking at the temperature but it felt very cold. I didn't take my phone out to take photos as I was afraid that It was going to drain my battery. The Kiddos were happy to see me. Shadow ran quite a bit today. I love when he has fun plus, we got to enjoy a beautiful red sky sunrise! 😃 Then it was girlies' turn. Everyone joined the party. Pinky was on the quiet side this morning so we took it very easy. There was a lot of sniffing and looking at things. The Scoop: Shadow had a poo and many pees. Mocha and Pinky had a poop and pees. Java had only a pee. Runner: Fab DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2

It was so great to be back out running today especially with Archie and Freckles. We took advantage of the nice weather (might not be saying that soon) and enjoyed the sunshine. Both dogs ran really well today, in fact, I was the slow one; perhaps one too many Christmas cookies? Archie wanted to run and wasn’t that interested in having his picture taken today although he did give me a great selfie. Freckles was also happy to be out although at two different forks in the road she gave me looks as I don’t think we went the way she was hoping for. I got a unique picture of her today as I caught her being distracted by a drone overhead so that was different angle then we usually capture. So happy to be back out with them and can’t wait to do it again tomorrow. The Scoop: 1 poop for Freckles and nothing for Archie. They both had a few good pees but I did stop counting all the little ones that were just meant to colour the snow. Runner: Scott DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Good morning my friends. Happy weekend! All was silent when I entered the house this morning! Yep, the pooches slept in today. Everyone was in their quarters relaxing. Shadow was very excited to see me and we escaped the room so no one started barking. I was hesitant about bringing Kopek along, but all went well. We stayed on the trails where it was safer. The Kiddos took a lot of time sniffing around, which resulted in Kopek going back on leash to practise his "heel." Needless to say, Shadow rubbed his paws together thinking, finally, Aunt Fab is giving him some education time! 🤣🤣 All went super well as we enjoyed some lovely weather. Then it was The girlies' turn. They too behaved like stars. They must know Aunt Fab has a sore paw. The Scoop: Shadow had a poop and many pees. The 3 girls had a poop and couple of pees each.

Good morning my friends! It is official - Shadow and I believe Santa lives in his neighbourhood! It was so cold here today. The car showed -23C. Yep, Santa lives nearby. He doesn't need to be in the North Pole 🤣🤣. We decided to stay on the trail as the snowy path would be too cold for Shadow. With that cold, we went twice around the lake (a short distance). Shadow was very exited today. I told him he was to be my only running date for the week. No Kopek as he is with his nanny for the week. The run was like heaven on earth, no chaos. I think Shadow and I are suffering with some kind of PTSD as we realized how zen/meditation-like the run was without Kopek 🤣. I am kind of glad Kopek can't read this.. Baahhh! Then it was the girlies' turn. It was cold for them as well. Even Java didn't even try to go into the deep snow. We met a few doggies which was surprising considering how cold it was. The Scoop: Shadow had a poo and few pees. Mocha and Pinky had a poo and a few pees each and Java had only one pee. Runner: Fab DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Good afternoon my friends! I know it is Saturday so Mommy surprised you with a weekend walk. 🤣I have to laugh as as I am trying to write my blog, Shadow is near me, making seriously eyes contact to see if am going to give him a cookie.. I sure know that look. Lol! The kiddos had fun on the trails as always. We got caught in some kind of snowstorm at one point. Then it was the girlies' turn. They are always happy to go for their little strolls. Java was a bit of little punk as she tried to go the other way. 🤪🤣. When she realized that no one would wait, she decided to catch up with us all. Lol ! The Scoop: Shadow had a poop and many pees . The 3 girls had a poo and few pees each.

Oh oh! It was a cold one today for sure. Since I was wearing big gloves, I didn’t keep my hands in my pocket which resulted in my phone freezing. I know, I know, I am a hot babe and keeping my hands in my pocket usually keeps my phone warm.🤣 So, I lost some of the data. I believe we went for a total of 7.3 km. Pathways were very quiet today as other pooches probably are waiting for warmer weather to take their owners out for a walk.. Lol. The Girlies were happy to go out. Well, maybe not Java as she had the brakes on for a big part of the walk. Lol. The Scoop : Shadow had a poop and many pees. Mocha and Pinky had a poop and a pee. Java who refused to go in deep snow, had only a pee. Runner: Fab DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Good morning my favourite gang! What a beautiful Monday we are having. I love the earlier sunrise’s lights. All those oranges and purple colours make for such amazing pictures. Shadow and Kopek sat nicely for me to take some great shots. Since the trails were super icy, the kiddos and I stayed mainly on the hills for safety. Both dogs had plenty time to run free. We met many pooches so the run was even more fun. Then it was girlies’ turn. It was super warm when it came time for their walk. The Ladies enjoyed their walk per usual The Scoop : Shadow had 2 poops and many pees. The Girls all had a poo and few pees each. Runner: Fab DGR RUN OF THE DAY # 2

Good morning pooches! Did you see that beautiful sunrise outside? Shadow, let’s go and see it. Driving over I couldn’t believe how amazing that sunrise was. It was probably one of the most incredible ones I have seen. I took a picture but this is the kind where you have to be there at the right moment. Shadow and Kopek got ready quickly and we went out to the trails. Shadow was a very happy puppy for the first half. He played and ran with his friend but then he quieted down a bit, dragging himself at the back... Hmmm, this is not the Shadow I know. So we slowed down and sure enough, Shadow got sick. I could see some little pieces of branches in there. Too much stick chewing. Shadow was a happy pup when he came back home, so this is a good news. The Girls went right after and as always. they had a little leisurely stroll. Today was an amazing day temperature wise as well. The Scoop: Shadow had 2 poops and many pees. The Girls all had a poo and few pees each. Runner: Fab DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Today was a special day as my favourites went for an afternoon run instead of their early morning one. They went to their groomer today so were all shaved with new little bandanas on. They looked like rock stars! Shadow was happy to see me and out we went. Elvis joined the party as well. We took the trails but made sure to keep Shadow on-leash to prevent him from jumping in the lake. Let’s try to keep the pooches clean for at least a day.🤣 While running, I had to re-assure many neighbours as I was new to them. Then it was the gals' turn. Today, we went the other way around the lake. Since Mocha was the only one not to have her poo, I let her loose for a bit. Well, Miss Mocha saw an opportunity to jump in the lake. i It was like a slow motion scene with me calling her and running before she reached to lake...but it was too late. It ended up with a big splash and a smiley Mocha 🤣🤣. Everyone had a poo but Mocha, as well as a few pees. Runner: Fab

Oh hello my friends..😍🙏🏻🐾 So today is a special day, It is the dry and we are having beautiful summer weather but it is also the last day I will see you all for a while. Since my friends packed their bikinis and swimming suit for vacation time already, I decided to make it special. Since I feel great running, today Shadow and I pushed to the 8km run. That was super awesome, I think Shadow was very impressed with me today! 😃. As usual, we took many fun pictures. Then it was the gals' turn. I decided to make it special for them and we all went leash-free. Of course, Pinky wasn’t too sure if she wanted to go and Mocha-moo decided to jump in the lake. 😍. Great day for all of us. Kiddos. Shadow had 1 poop and few pees. Mocha and Java had a poop and one pee. Pinky had 2 pees. Runner: Fab

Happy Thursday kiddos. Today, Shadow and daddy came to meet me in the parking lot as I arrived. Shadow was so ready to go. He is so cute with his little bandana. He actually commented about it but he also asked me if I took many pics of the gals with their new bows. I sadly admitted that I didn’t so Shadow suggested that today should be a gals' photo shoot day. How sweet of Shadow to think about that gals like this! 🥰. So we surprised the gals with a special day for them. They loved it! They made sure to show their best side.. 😍🤣 Shadow and I went trotting along some back trails and hills. The Gals were happy to walk to the bridge today. Everyone saw a few furry friends. Shadow had 2 poops and few pees. Mocha and Java had one poop and 2 pees. Pinky had only 2 pees. Runner: Fab

Oh oh, what happened today! I am sure the kiddos thought they were having a day off. Not so fast my friends! Mom and I had other plans in store 🤣. When they heard a knock at the door, the gang knew it was me. Shadow was happy to see me and was very eager to go. But looking at the sky and hearing the thunderstorm, we knew there could be rain so we went a bit faster today. There was more trot for me under Shadow's encouragement. Since it was a late afternoon run, we discovered all types of life in the neighbourhood. There were people playing tennis, new people and doggies I have never met before, and Shadow even thought he should go rescue all the kids swimming in the lake🤣. The Gals were eager to go even under the thundering sounds. Everyone had fun. Shadow and Java had a poop. Shadow had few pees, Mocha and Pinky had 1 pee only and Java had a pee. Runner: Fab

Oh what a welcome today; the entire gang came running outside to greet me today! Everyone was so excited. It was so much fun! Shadow was the first one to go as usual. I made sure he took his ball with him. He loves to carry it along. We took the same trails as yesterday. He caught me trotting along for a bit 😁. Shadow had that “hey! Are you allowed to mini trot? He made the "I may tell on you" face. 🤣 It is all good Shadow. The doctor said I can start mini-trotting but not too much 😁. Then we came back home via the hills. As always, Shadow told the gals he had a lot of fun. Now it was girlies' time. Yep, they are definitely summer gals. Pinky was peaking at 2 ladies over the bushes, while Java rolled like a kid in the tall grass. Mocha was Mocha - a quite and polite little lady 🥰 The Poop Scoop: everyone had a poop. Shadow had a few pees. Java had one pee. Mocha and Pinky had 2 pees. Runner: Fab |
