Scenic Sunday!

I thought that today I would share some more hiking photos with you! Recently myself, mum & dad climbed Bray Head in Co.Wicklow. Bray Head is a 241 m (791 ft) hill and headland.It was a pretty steep climb up but the views are so worth it. It was quite busy when we climbed up as it was a sunny day & I had alot of people asking if they could take my photo and even asking if the could have their picture taken with me! Mum says I'm like a celebrity! :D

 Me & Mum at the top of Bray Head.

Me & Mum again, also at Bray Head, but a different part of it than the last photo. 

Me with the Sea behind me!

Dad had gone climbing up some rocks so this is me waiting for him to come back.

It is another place that is worth a visit if you ever come to Ireland. The views are lovely, especially if it is a sunny day.

Happy Mushing!

The Helmet Cam!

It was my mum's birthday back in August, and what she really wanted was a helmet cam so that she could film me running while we are out mushing. Dad very kindly obliged and bought her one. We finally got to test it out last week and I wanted to share the video with you all so you can see me doing one of the things I love best, running!



So as you can see we had a bit of a crash at the end! Fear not though, no animals or humans were harmed in the making of this film! Though I can't say the same for the poor bushes that mum dived into... or the busted brake on the scooter. Someone should tell mum that she needs practice with going around bends!
On the bright side the helmet cam works great, just needs a bit of adjusting so you get to see more of me! :D

 
Happy Mushing!

Hike on!

I must apologise for being so lax about updating the blog. My mum had a very busy time the last while, off gallivanting here and there! In between her gallivanting though her & dad managed to take me on some great hikes.

I'm really lucky to live in Ireland, there is an abundance of fabulous walks to go on. Some of the best are located in County Wicklow on the east coast. Wicklow is mountainous and very scenic. One of the most beautiful areas is Glenadlough, a place I've mentioned in the blog before and a place we go quite often as there are lots of different walks to choose from. Recently we did the Spinc mountain walk there. It was a tough walk (for the humans lol) up a small mountain that has spectacular views over the two lakes at Glendalough. Here is a picture of myself and mum at the top having a rest!

You can see it's quite high up! I would recommend this walk to anyone visiting Ireland as it's worth it for the views!

We also headed up to County Donegal which is in the North West of Ireland. It's another beautifully scenic area of the country and also well worth a visit! The coastal area is fabulous and we went on a hike in Ards Forest Park with the dog adventure club we are part of. Here is a pic of me and mum again on the hike.

It was a beautiful day and it's another place I would recommend if you visit here.

Thank you for reading.

Happy Mushing & Hiking!

Happy Birthday Kodi

Happy 2nd Birthday to my beautiful girl Kodi!

You have completely changed my life in the last two years, but changed it for the better. I can't imagine you not being around, I'd be lost without you! 

You bring lots of love, fun, husky kisses and hugs, and so much more to my life. 

Love you lots.

Donkey Encounter.

So in the last post I mentioned that I was at the pet expo and got to meet many different animals.
My favourite were the donkeys! Dad managed to caputure a picture of my encounter with them and here it is:

My new buddies!

They were so cool! 

Have any of you ever met any cool animals? I'd love to hear if you have :)

Pet Expo

Sorry for the lack of blog updates recently. As I said in the previous post I've been busy helping mum with her online store, I say helping, I mean testing the treats out! It's an important job you know :D

Well last weekend was a busy one for us. The dog adventure club that we are in had a stand at the Pet Expo in Dublin. So we were there for the whole weekend representing the club and handing out leaflets and taking part in demos. I got to wear my backpack and carry leaflets in it, here's a picture of me hard at work!

 

I know, I could be a model for Ruff Wear backpacks right? :D

I got so many rubs over the weekend and so many treats! It's pretty tiring being this cute hee hee. Myself and Mum and also took part in one of the clubs demos, we demonstrated canicross running, where the doggy, ( me) is hooked up to a human (mum), using a waist belt and a bungee line and you go for a run. We had to run through some barrels and then back to the finish line. It was alot of fun and as you can see from my expression, I really enjoyed it! 

Lol mum looked like she enjoyed it too! 
Edit: Look very closely and you will see me in the background too, on the barrel to the left! hee hee

It wasn't just dogs at the pet expo, I got to encounter lots of other animals! Had a run in with a pigeon, saw an eagle, ponies, donkeys, tarantulas, bunnies and ferrets, just to name a few! All in all a great weekend was had and after all my hard work representing Tails 'n' Trails was done, I got to relax and watch a demo.

Pretty in Pink
