DGR RUN OF THE DAY  
  DISTANCE: 9.1 km DURATION: 1 hour 3 minutes
It was the perfect running weather for my outing with Reba today so we chose a long loop for the pups. We went past the scary statue again today and neither one of them reacted at all. They must have heard us talking about how silly they were last week so they decided to be brave today. Reba even got close enough for a photo. Thanks Reba! The Scoop: 1 pee, 0 poops. Runner: Jessica

DGR RUN OF THE DAY 
  DISTANCE: 8.5 km DURATION: 1 hour 7 minutes
It was a great morning for a run and we loved looking at all the Halloween decorations (although Reba thought some of them were a little scary, haha). There was a very realistic coyote (maybe wolf?) statue that we passed that the dogs were NOT okay with. Reba growled, Grapes was whining and they both didn't want to pass it. I don't blame them, it was very realistic looking! Thanks Reba! The Scoop: 1 pee, 1 poop. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Running with Reba on a cool Monday morning! There were tons of hugs and even one open mouth kiss by accident!! Off we went to explore! Reba’s nose was on full sniff mode today! We saw some squirrels and birds but Reba and a bunny had a brief stare-off which was captured on the last picture! Great to see Reba again! The Scoop: 1 poop, 1 pee. Runner: Chris DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Let’s go! Reba was full of spunk this morning, Her mom warned me as I was on my way but I wasn’t expecting the greeting I got when I arrived. Reba came sprinting towards me when she saw me, it was as though she hadn’t seen me in 4 weeks let alone 4 days. Great run all around, The conditions were cloudy and cool so Reba thrived. We took a few new streets but kept the route relatively familiar. Good times were had. The Scoop: 1 pee. Runner: Brad 
 Rowdy Reba was so much fun to have in our home for a few days. She definitely had lots of stories to tell us while she was here. Her mood and energy levels are suiting for her age - young and full! We spent time playing in the house and the backyard. We also went on a couple short jogs where she found a stick to take with her. If she was hungry, wanted belly rubs, or heard something outside, she was sure to tell us. Story-time in the evening was always exciting as she would tell us one every night after we came in from the last pee break before bed. Reba was amazing and made a good friend in Bootsie who also stayed with us over the weekend. After Boots left, she was a little sad, but we were able to keep her spirits high with lots of love and cuddles.

Brrr, there was a cold wind on our way home this morning! The first half of the run was great. We went past the zoo and the dogs were a jumpy at all the rustling in the leaves as we went along. They were even more curious at the bear pen. The bears were playing with a giant ball so we watched for a little while. I made the mistake of running past a long stretch of condo buildings which turned into a slow amble because there was too many good smells for them. Thanks Reba! The Scoop: 2 pees, 0 poops.

Reba was a chatterbox this morning and woofed at a bunch of people we passed (but not at dogs, haha!). We went through Princess Island Park which we haven't done in a very long time, but for some reason they had all the sprinklers on spraying freezing water all over the pathways. We zigzagged around the worst parts and then finally got back to dry ground. Reba picked up a stick along the way that she carried for about 3km's (silly girl!). It was a great start to the week, thanks Reba! The Scoop: 1 pee. 0 poops. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY

We did a run to Scotsman Hill that I've been wanting to do for a long time. I gave the girls a pep talk on Monday to be ready for the longer distance and double hills and they had their game faces on today. We kept a good pace and only stopped to cross 9th Avenue and for our photos at the top. It was a really great temperature and Reba was extra speedy today. Thanks Reba! The Scoop: 1 pee.

It was a great morning for a run and the fall colours were beautiful. There was some nice sidewalk art that Reba modelled for a photo (such a photogenic pup!). Both Reba and Grapes somehow got thorny burrs on them and it took some time to get them out. I have no idea how they got attached because we stuck to the pathways, it was a mystery! Thanks for a great run Reba. The Scoop: 2 pees, 0 poops. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY  DISTANCE: 8K DURATION: 1 hour 8 minutes
Today was overcast and cool Reba greeted me in the hallway and asked for those belly rubs then and there! We said "hi" to a couple of dogs across the street today, and hit some hills on the way home. It was a great lap through the downtown area and all over the neighbourhood. No issues just smooth strides. The Scoop: 3 pees and 1 poop. Runner: Brad DGR RUN OF THE DAY

 DISTANCE: 8.4 km DURATION: 1 hour 1 minute It was a great run this morning! Reba had lots of energy so we ran quickly between our photo stops. I'm really glad she's not reactive to squirrels because they were bold and stupid today and many of them were playing chicken to see how close we could get before they ran away. Reba did react to one butterfly that came too close and she tried to eat it (don't worry, she missed! Haha!). Thanks Reba! The Scoop: 3 pee, 0 poops. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Reba was a little slow to start this morning but she gets a cheerleader award for the big hill at the end of our run and was the leader with Grapes and myself following behind. The pathway by Eau Claire was surprisingly quiet and for the most part we had the whole path to ourselves. A nice stranger offered to take a group picture of us by the bridge....but the dogs wanted the cookies in my hands and weren't too interested in the camera. I have a feeling all those pictures are a disaster and I have no idea how many he took. Haha! Thanks Reba! The Scoop: 2 pees, 1 poop. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Reba was excited to get going today and loved zig-zagging so she could splash in the puddles. There was something really interesting that she had to stop and sniff (she laid down and was adamant that it had to be sniffed, haha!). After that it was smooth sailing, Grapes and Reba spent most of the time running beside each other. It was really cute. Thanks Reba! The Scoop: 2 pees, 1 poop. Runner: Jessica DGR RUN OF THE DAY

Cruise Control with Reba. It started out with a casual walk, just some slow laps around the block. Then around 15 minutes in, we got a steady jog going. Reba made sure to stay close at all times and she didn’t pull unless she wanted to slow down a bit. It was great when other dogs were around (across the street). We made our way to the river with a couple detours just to check out the surrounding neighbourhoods. Reba was happy to be out and she wasn’t in sniff mode. We weren’t looking to break any distance or speed records. We took things slow a couple times, but still got our steps in. The Scoop: 3 pees, 0 poops. Runner: Brad |
