Snow in the mountains….it must be Fall.
Autumnal Calgary…where you can experience a true and varied cornucopia of weather on a daily basis. Truly stimulating for the senses and a fantastic place to walk a pooch.
I like dogs of all shapes and sizes. Musing about them, life, nature and the universe helps to keep me on the straight and narrow.

Last week…Friday the 13th to be exact… I posted a picture of Wyatt enjoying the Calgary sunshine and commented something along the lines of “long may it continue”…. Roll forward to today. A whole seven degrees and rain all day. Soggy dogs, soggy me, happy grass but not too much else to enjoy. Guess who … More Never mention the weather on Friday the 13th…….!!!!

Wistful-looking welcomely worn-out and wet-yet-warm wagging-tailed wanderers, post Poochwalk. See you next week boys.
Hopefully the Labor Day weekend treated you well and you managed to get some quality time with friends and/or family. I wonder how much longer I will be seeing mornings like this before I have to start wearing a sweater…? No change of attire for a while I hope…!
Previously perky pooches now pooped but properly pleased posing in the Poochmobile post-Poochwalk…Phew!!
Whilst walking with Wyatt today I was regaled with lively tales of derring do following his recent excursion to the mountains with his owners. He was very animated about what he had done…where he had been…the sights he had seen, the smells he had smelled. and the absolute excitement of it all…indeed, I could see … More Carpe Diem….or should that be Carpe Canine…?
Empathy is meant to be a human trait. “You feel bad…I empathise…” “You’ve had a bad day…I feel for you…” But empathy is not just a human trait….Lately I have witnessed this first hand… You’re reflecting on past incidents….I feel ya buddy…! Don’t be sad…I know where you’re coming from…! However, other instincts can also … More Empathy….
