Hello Miss Mikka! Are you ready to come for a stay at my house? My little TinkerBell was up for a car ride. I kept Mikka wrapped in a big blanket bubble so that she was always warm and comfy. We had some office time, where even Lab Sully decided he wanted to join in on the doggy nap-time. Mikka did get her steps in even when that meant going on top of her doggy friends. Lots of love precious little Mikka.

DGR RUN OF THE DAY 
  DISTANCE: 701 metres. DURATION: 31 minutes
Miss Mikka was ready to exercise today! At first, I thought we would take the downhill sidewalk from her house. Nope, it has to be more challenging than that Michelle! Okay, Tinkerbell, let's go up the hill. That was okay for about 100 meters. THEN, Mikka wanted even more of a challenge. Up the side of the hill on the dirt trail. She was spunky and moving those little feet in double time. I must admit my heart was filled with joy to see my girlfriend having so much energy and pep. I think this cooler weather is very good for Mikka. You made my week Tinkerbell. The Doggy Business Report: 1 pee. Mikka got lots of treats because she did fantastic.

Miss Mikka’s energy was full-on today. It was lovely to witness and share a stroll with her. When I first arrived, she was napping. I gently gave her head a little pat. She quietly woke up and leisurely contemplated going for a walk. Well, I am glad she did. She was all set and we walked the entire time. Great energy today Tinkerbell. Even when we finished her walk, she had the energy to go up the stairs. Bravo Mikka! The Doggy Business Report: 2 pees and 1 poop. When I left she was eating her food.

Hi Miss Mikka! A little birdy said you may not have eaten your breakfast. Let's crumble some little treats on top to sweeten the deal.🥰. Mikka was excited to get out and sniff on Saturday. She stopped at the Jeep and gave me these big eyes. “Can we go for a drive? I'm tired of walking.” Hope in Tinkerbell. Let's go grab a coffee.💕 The Doggy Business Report: 1 pee and several treats.

Miss Mikka was so spunky today. I think the heat may be her kryptonite🐾 She was fascinated with one of the neighbours and had to say hi and see what she was doing with her garden. Since we had some time left and Miss Mikka loves a car ride. We popped over to the pet store for a bag of treats. 🐾 Mikka has me wrapped around her little paws. The Doggy Business Report: 1 pee.

Happy Sunday Mikka! Time for a stroll. Mikka was excited and greeted me at the door this afternoon. When I picked the collar and leash up, she jumped straight up. I think she used a fair amount of her energy in her greeting. We took our Sunday ‘Strolling’ to a whole new level. 🤣Always a delight spending time with Tinkerbell. The Doggy Business Report: just 1 single pee. Mikka was loving sniffing and it did get hot. Her little tongue was panting Runner: Michelle 
 The whole house was looking forward to today's special guest. Miss Mikka (Tinkerbell) was spending the day with us. We started off after I picked her up with a yoga class. Mikka was a bit more interested in sleeping on the blankets than doing poses. Mikka and I have a little thing she likes to do when we get together, we go through the Starbucks Drive-Thru. Mikka always get excited when she know this is where we are headed. Back home it was time for some Netflix which of course led to a nap on the couch. I woke up all toasty warm and Miss M sleeping on my chest. Best Saturday in a long time. I have missed you Tinkerbell. Hope we can have more time together soon.

I received a very special text this morning. Miss Mikka and I arranged for a lunch hour stroll. Tinkerbell was very excited to see that Huxley was joining us.🐾💕 It was a great sunny afternoon and many pups and their humans were out. The word on the street was “ Aww, they (Mikka & Huxley) look so cute. Mutt and Jeff.”🐾 Friends come in all sizes, shapes and colours. The Doggy Business Report: just a few pees for both dogs. No poops today. Runner: Michelle 
 Hi Tinkerbell! This is my pet name for Mikka. I have come to pick you up so that you can visit us for a little while. I had Mikka’s favourite boy, Huxley, in the Jeep with me when I picked her up. She was very happy to see him and they even gave each other a little kiss as a greeting. On the topic of new friends, Mikka met Sir Ennis and they got on really well. I think both these mature canines felt comfortable and could relate to the quieter life style. Miss M loves to cuddle and be wrapped up. My mother was over on Wednesday, and Mikka has met her before. Miss M has her wrapped around her paw, and my mother wraps Mikka up and holds her like a baby. A very big win-win for both of them. When it was not possible to snuggle Mikka like a little baby, Albert Monkey (the stuffed toy) filled in as a little substitute. Friday was a very busy day, Mikka came with us to take Aoife to the vet for her spay and then consoled her on the way home when we picked her up. You have a lot of love to give Tinkerbell, now that you are home, you make sure to shower Mom with all that love. We all miss you already. Fingers crossed we see you soon.

 Hello Miss Mikka. We have all been awaiting your arrival. It was a busy afternoon with us ‘Gals’ today. To kick it all off, Aoife needed to have play-time with her friend in her backyard. Aoife hops and jumps and shows off to Mikka. Little M watches and prances around her; keeping her eye on the elephant in the yard.🤣 Then, we girls did some baking and cooking. As you can see by the photo of Mikka in the refrigerator she really got into the 'kitchen time'. After all that spent energy, it was time to have a little nap with Aunty. I wrapped her up and she loved it. She is the only pup that is allowed up on Aunty & Uncle's bed. Ssshhh, don’t tell Aoife. Time for dinner and monitoring the ‘switching of the dog food bowls.’ These two gals get on so well that each of them eat out of the other's bowls. You have to make sure two heads are not eating out of the same bowl. Henry had to play Puppy Police Officer so that each got their own food. Bellies full and now it is TV time with Uncle Henry. Miss Mikka = you pop on over anytime you want to as we all love having you visit.

Hello Mikka, do you remember me? Your Aunty Michelle stuffed my pockets with special Mikka treats to bring with me on our walk. Mikka showed me that all her treats should all go in the bowl!! How about we save some for after our Saturday Stroll? Lots of sniffs had to be done during out time out. The change of season must bring out new and interesting smells. I hope to take you out again soon or at least join you and Aunty Michelle. The Doggy Business Report: 3 pees total. Runner: Henry (with Michelle as the ghost writer) after getting the scoop 
Miss Mikka……I am here to pick you up for our day together. Tinkerbell was all curled up like a little Mini Donut having her morning sleep. Her big eyes open up and tic tic tic her toes shuffled across the floor to receive me. She just knew that this was much more than our normal lunch hour stroll. Yes, Miss M, we are going for a car ride and then spending the day with Henry and Aoife. Oh, how this young gal loves car rides! She always wants to drive when she gets in. Driving requires you to be able to see over the steering wheel, you are the co-pilot today. "Do we get to go to Starbucks today?" See the photo with her standing on her back feet. Miss Mikka loves the drive-thru, but today our schedule was different. Next time I do promise. When we got to my house, Mikka and Aoife did their little dance of ‘Hello’. Aoife being the elephant was all excited her little friend was back, and Aoife tried to say ‘Hi’ without being stepped on. These two do really well together. When they want to play and have a doggy conversation in the house, I put Mikka up on a chair so that she is not in any way under Aoife’s big legs. Both their heads bop around and they really do look like they are having a conversation and some girl talk. Even though Mikka’s whole body is the size of Aoife’s head. The whole family loves to see Mikka, I caught her & Henry having a little nap snuggled up together. At dinner-time, like all fur kids, the doggy girls wanted the other's food. No, you can look and sniff but let's eat what is in your own bowls. I received the look of ’But her bowl looks better.' It was a great day that we all had together. Miss Mikka you give Mom and Dad extra love this weekend. See you soon.

Mikka texted me and asked if I would like to hang out together at lunch today. Why that sounds like fun Tinkerbell🧚. Miss M was having a little nap but was up & at it when she heard me. The first thing she told me was that she was a bit peckish. That's not good. Let me get out the ’Mikka Only’ treats that I brought. 😊 Time to work on our tan. We tried to stay off the sidewalks and visited a couple of dirt paths. It did get a bit hot today and I could tell Miss Mikka was ready to go home and cool off with some fresh water. Great seeing you today. The Doggy Business Report: just pees, no poop today. Runner: Michelle DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3  DISTANCE: 1.9 km DURATION: 37 minutes
Oh, Miss Mikka, you are one spunky monkey today. Did you know I was coming? Tinkerbell met me at the door and was so excited that she got up on her hind legs to give me a welcome hug😍. There was no lallygagging today. Miss M’s little legs were moving rapidly. She was a gal on a mission. We galloped through the other part of the cul-de-sac today and over to the little green space that Mikka loves to run in. I don't know what it is about this little space but Mikka smiles the entire time and has to run. It was a real pleasure seeing you today Miss M. The Doggy Business Report: lots of pees and that was it. Runner: Michelle DGR RUN OF THE DAY #3

Wakey wakey sleepy head. Mikka was sound a sleep when I arrived. After about 5 minutes calling, I headed to her bedroom. There I found her all crawled out sleeping on the sunbeams. Come on Tinkerbell let's get our ’daily quota of steps in.’ Mikka was up and ready instantly. We did a combination of two of our different routes BUT in reverse. A few times Mikka pulled me to go our normal route. 🤣 Mikka had lots of smiles today. Enjoy the rest of your long weekend Tinkerbell. The Doggy Business Report: 2 poops and a few pees.
