DGR RUN OF THE DAY #2 
  DISTANCE; 7.9 km DURATION: 1 hour 3 minutes
It was so nice to see Lincoln again today! The weather was absolutely perfect for a run. We were looking for the best Halloween decorations - Lincoln's favourite was the wheelbarrow of bones (he even woofed at it!). Mine was the pumpkin tower. He found the little bits of snow to do his happy roll. It was really great. Thanks Lincoln! The Scoop: 2 poops, 1 pee. Runner: Jessica

DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1 
  DISTANCE: 7.8 km DURATION: 1 hour
Lincoln was an absolute gentleman today! He would run beside me at just the slightest touch of the leash and didn't try to pee 1000 times (we stopped enough to make him happy but nothing excessive). We even passed a school that was outside playing Frisbee and he didn't bat an eyelash (my dog would have gone crazy). There wasn't too many people out and about and the smoke in the air was pretty yucky by the time we were done (so glad we started early!). It was a great run. Thanks Lincoln! The Scoop: 1 pee, 1 poo.

I think it must be a full moon or something because Lincoln was full of beans. He was extra reactive to other dogs and some bikes, and some cats (although one was being walked on a leash so he maybe thought it was a little dog. Haha! I'm just going to think of it as an off day because he is usually much better - we all have those days! It was still nice to get out for a run even with change in temperament. Thanks Lincoln!

I'm so thankful that we ran early in the day! Lincoln was eager to get started and we zigzagged around road construction, other dogs, and shady spots. He would rest when he needed and loved rolling in the wet grass. Great start to the day. Thanks Lincoln. The Scoop: 1 poop. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY #6

There was high humidity this morning so although the temperatures weren't quite as warm, it felt like we were running in something thick. The wildlife was feeling extra sassy and wanted to play chicken as we were running by a particular squirrel. One hare scared the snot out of Lincoln and me when he darted away from us at the last second. Lincoln definitely wanted his happy-roll breaks today. Thanks Lincoln! The Scoop: 2 poops.

We started a bit early hoping to beat the heat. Our first 10 minutes was great, but then the cloud cover dissipated and the temperature went up quickly. I thought Lincoln would like to go through a sprinkler and he thought I was crazy. About 10 minutes later, he was laying down and rolling in a different sprinkler mist (told ya so! Haha). There were much fewer pee breaks today although he really wanted to stop and roll in shady grass spots so we would take breaks there. It was shorter than our usual route but Lincoln set the pace and seemed happy. Thanks Lincoln! The Scoop: 2 pees, 1 poo. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY #7

Someone must have been teaching Lincoln to read because he took all 'stop' signs quite literally today! He didn't feel the need to sniff other signs, but for whatever reason stop signs were absolutely irresistible (which, given our area, made for a very slow start!). He was happy to roll in the shade when he could with his goofy smile and was really good passing other dogs (no spinnies). I think we set a record for marking the neighbourhood so hopefully Wednesday he'll be a bit speedier. Thanks Lincoln! The Scoop: 1 pee, 1 poop. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY #4

Lincoln was a good boy today! There were lots of dogs and people outside so we crisscrossed and zig-zagged through the community and had a peaceful run. There was lots of flowers and flags to look at. We took lots of pictures. We were having so much fun that we lost track of time so our last few kilometres home were extra speedy. Thanks Lincoln!

Lincoln was....let's say sassy today. He was super excited to get going and everything was a big deal for the first few minutes. Bike! Dog! Person in a car! Thankfully, that didn't last long and he was happy to run forward instead of spinning in circles. He pooped on the nicest lawns he could find and rolled happily in the most neglected lawns. Oh Lincoln! He needed some breaks in the shade so I took lots of pictures because he's just so darn handsome. Thanks Lincoln. The Scoop: 2 pees, 2 poos. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3

The first couple kilometres were slow while Lincoln took care of business but once all the necessities were out of the way, we picked up the pace. We tried to pick the shadiest streets so it was a bit of a zigzag but Lincoln didn't complain. He asked for a few shady breaks so we just took cute pictures while we waited. I think one time he just wanted to roll in the dandelion fluff, Haha. Thanks Lincoln! The Scoop: 1 pee, 1 poo. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY #1

It was a lovely morning for a run and it was early enough that it wasn't too hot. All was quiet on the sidewalks. Lincoln was pretty insistent on stopping for some smells when we were further away from the house and he was patient when I made him pose with the pretty tulips. Thanks Lincoln!

Lincoln was an elimination machine today - he pee'd more times than I could count....he was like Hansel and Gretel but instead of breadcrumbs it was a scent trail, Haha. He was tuckered out and had a lay-down break at the half-way point but then he perked up and got his second wind for the way home. It was a beautiful morning for a run. Thanks Lincoln!

Lincoln was great today and we really enjoyed our run. He wasn't bothered by the rabbits or squirrels and was extra prancy today. He had a couple of really good rolls in the grass and probably wanted a couple more but we kept going. There was even a naughty little dog that was off-leash somewhere it shouldn't have been that charged at us and was barking like crazy and I was able to keep Lincoln moving along. I was really impressed with him! No map today as Doggy Logs was not working. The Scoop: 2 poos, lot of pees. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY #5

Lincoln was great today and enjoyed our morning run! He was excellent passing bikes (and we had lots of practice), pretty good with other dogs, and not so good with the rabbit (but he was a rascal so I don't blame him). A squirrel even got really close and Lincoln was too much in a run groove to notice. He looked pretty handsome in my sunglasses too, Ha ha!.The Scoop: 2 pees, 2 poos.

 DISTANCE: 8.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 1 minute Today was the best run we've had since the fall! The weather was perfect, sidewalks were dry and clear, and Lincoln was pretty good when I tried to distract his attention when other dogs were around. He insisted on lots of rolling in a snow patch we found and happily pranced after that. I tried to get a picture of him covered in snow but he'd shake it off and then roll again before I could capture the moment. Thanks for a great start to the day! The Scoop: 2 pees. 1 poo.
