The Walking Thread - What Did You See The Last Time You Took Your Pup For A Walk? The Walking Thread - What Did You See The Last Time You Took Your Pup For A Walk? I know a lot of you take your pups for a walk and occasionally you post about it in the general discussion, here's a thread to make it easier to post if you care to share! :D Post as often as you like, as short or as detailed as is convenient, photos or no. It's all for fun! :) |
1 Attachment(s) Walking Zippy today in a local park, we saw King County Parks Back Country Trails Group upgrading a piece of trail that was turned into muck when a beaver extended his dam. Wooden framing set into the muddy trail and filled in with double fist sized rocks and gravel on top should do the trick! |
1 Attachment(s) The ah-ha moment of today's walk was seeing a green-winged teal at the local pond. The sun was at my back while I watched the teal meander peacefully in front of me, his bright colors were ablaze and brilliant! (I stole this pic from the web to share since my phone just did not do it justice) ;) |

1 Attachment(s) Here's a photo from last Fall, Gucci and the edge of the pond... this isn't a pond people go to in order to feed ducks. No houses around it, just dirt and some gravel trails. Woodsy feel in the city. :thumbup: |
A snake :eek:. I think it was a baby grass snake, but it was just chilling out in the middle of the sidewalk *bleh*. My husband thought he was going to have a new pet :rolleyes: :thumbdown. Rasta was not amused, he thought he needed to defend me from it with all the noises I was making when the hubs attempted to pick it up lol. |

4 Attachment(s) Hit a local State Park today with Gucci and Zippy, saw lots of people, trees, dead frog and just too much to list separately. :p |
Wow access is only $30 a year to such a lovely wild oasis in the city. Buster and I envy you guys. |

This state park is about 2 miles away and I should get my money's worth. The other two city and county parks are no charge and closer. :thumbup: |
4 Attachment(s) I saw some wood ducks today, looks like a local trail upgrade has been completed. Met with a park volunteer/ambassador, we cut some black berry bushes and hauled out trash, Zippy was very patient during the work. Sounds like the weather will be crap for a couple days so it was good to hit it again today. This is a local county park. There are wood ducks in the last picture but, I can't see them either so, no worries, another view of the pond. :D Does anyone else walk their dogs? LOL :cool: I posted in this part of the forum since it was labeled "fun" and sub description was "activities" with your yorkies. No biggy! |
I took Tiki on a beach walk last Saturday and we saw lots of people sun bathing, a few stand-up paddle boarding, and the most exciting thing was 2 big turtles swimming near my granddaughter very close to shore. (I don't walk the pups often, but this was an exceptional day) |
I have been to Marymoor dog park in Wa many times with my daughter and her Bernese Mountain Dog (who passed last year.). When out there in March, we just walked her new dog around her neighborhood as he is still a puppy and not to be trusted of leash just yet. But it is a great place to let your dog socialize. Mark, if you are ever in the Redmond area and looking for a good beer my daughter Michelle and her husband Ryan have a brewery there. It call Hi Fi Brewing at 14950 NE 95th St Redmond. They are dog friendly. When I went there there were 3 dogs lounging around while their owners had a beer. |
Cookie and I finally got to take a walk yesterday after a very long and cold winter! We took our normal walk through the park and behind an elementary school. I think what I didn't see was better than what I did see. Of course I saw the tree's and little creek and lots of brown grass. But last year before the weather got bad, we had lots of construction going on in the part and it was hard to get through. Cookie had to check out everything they were doing of course! LOL!! So this walk, there was no one but us and it was great! :animal-pa :animal-pa |
