Wednesday Pack Activities
Adventure Pack
Avo sprinted all around the trail. Sometimes she overtook Griff at the lead of the pack; sometimes she veered off through the Chautauqua meadow; sometimes she backtracked only to rush to catch back up. She was pretty much always on the move. Meanwhile, Griff maintained his usual scouting position. Dylan and Sputnik followed close at my sides. Dylan lay in the creek when we passed it at Gregory Canyon. Griff and Sputnik stood in the flowing water and had a little drink. Avo pulled up submerged branches. Sputnik had a little trouble getting up one of the steeper steps on the Saddle Rock Trail, but found a way. During the return leg, Sputnik and Dylan led the way back down the mountain. Avo kept rolling in the grass on the way back through the meadow.
Variety Pack
Zoey was very excited about the kiddie pool at the Valmont Dog Park this afternoon, and she splashed around a lot. Carl followed Zoey into the pool, but was more interested in getting her attention than playing in the water. Petie was interested in the pool, but was intimidated by Zoey's zeal. When she got out, he got in. Rey joined Petie in the water with a more chill demeanor, and the two of them poked around in it a bit. Imogene just wanted to chomp at the water as it came out of the spigot. Carl and Imogene competed to retrieve tennis balls while a friend joined in to chase after them. Zoey had her own ball and always got to it first whenever she let me throw it for her. Petie sniffed around the perimeter of the park while his packmates played fetch. There weren't many other dogs at the park today, but Rey made rounds to greet them and their people.
