Fun hiking weekend!

Posted: 09 Jun 2009 05:47 AM PDT

After we got the new Raise a Green Dog website live and worked out a few little glitches, we got to spend some fun and quality time together. This weekend, we went hiking, not once, but twice!

On Sunday we went down to our usual hiking place near the White River Park just down the road. But on Saturday we got to go to a new hiking place. Mum took Gracie and me with her to stock up on dog food from our great friends in Pendleton. When that was done Mum surprised us by taking us to Falls Park near there for a nice little hike!

Little did we know that there was a Lions Fair going on there, so it took us a while to find a parking spot, but we finally found one. Then it was off on our little hike.

On the way to the trail we saw this super cool stone design, take a look it says 1888! That's older than the hills (and Mum, BOL!)!

Then we made our way to the river. We had to cross it on a little footbridge to get to the other side where the trail starts. I saw some ducks I wanted to herd...

And Gracie was enthralled with the falls...

Then we finally made it to the trail, a very tidy one at that. We like a little more off-road, but we were having fun, nonetheless. We saw squirrels, lots of birds, bugs, and plants. We even saw some leaves that needed acne treatments, they were all spotty, probably a fungus or something. We thought it was cool, but Mum was ewey all over the place. Guess she thought she may catching somethin, or somethin, BOL!!

We stopped to check out the river, me at the bank...

And Gracie at the bridge...

Gracie was getting super overstimulated with the new environment. Mum wishes she would have brought Gracie's clicker to help her focus at times and work on impulse control. Mum couldn't even get Gracie's attention to sit and take a treat. Next time, fur sure!

Overall it was a super weekend. No agility, but hiking galore! We hope you had a great weekend too! And here's a little video of scenes from our hike. You can hear the fair (and the screaming little two leggers) in the background, BOL!!!

It's time for.....hammie agility!

We found this last week, too cool! This Hammie knows his agility stuff (or is he a she?), BOL!!!

Big news! Raise a Green Dog has grown!

I've been a bad, bad doggie blogger, it's been over a week since my last post. But I have a reason!

Mum and I are super proud to announce that our Raise a Green Dog blog has grown, just like all happy and healthy green pups should.

Our blog has turned into a full website with tips, tricks, information and an extensive online green dog product portal for the green, or aspiring green, dog! So now you can find all kinds of information about living a green dog life and lots of hard to find products that are safe, and healthy for us pups! It doesn't have garden urns, but it has just about everything else!

And the other cool thing is that I've started a Green Dog club! If you're green be sure and check out the opportunity to take the Green Dog Pledge, show your commitment to being green and join my club! And if you'd like to showoff your 'greenness' on your site there are super cool website banners you can add to your blog or website too!

I want to thank my Mum for all the hard work (under my direction, clicking and treating of course) in putting together the website. I think she did a pretty doggone good job for being a newbie website creator. Hey Mum, you get a nice raw marrow bone, thanks!
