Woof woof! 🐾Why we’re participating in the Great Canadian Hike

Woof woof! 

I’m one lucky pup because I get to walk on the Martin Goodman Trail with my Mom and Dad all the time.  And! When I visit my grandpawrents, that means I get to sniff, trot, and zoom along a different Trail! There’s just something magical out there… the fresh air filling my nose, the trees standing tall and still, and that wonderful sense that I’m part of something bigger than my own little pack. Every time I hit the trail, I feel peace… and a lot of joy (and sometimes I find sticks and get a pupcup, which is also amazing).

This fall, my humans and I are joining the Great Canadian Hike! It’s a big adventure where people (and their four-legged sidekicks ) across Canada will hike, bike, paddle, or roll our way towards 30,000 kilometres in 30 days — the length of the Trail from coast to coast to coast. Paws on the ground, tails in the air!

From September 20 to October 19, we’ll be logging every step and raising funds to keep the Trail safe, welcoming, and sniff-friendly for everyone, now and for all the humans and pups who come after us. I’ll also share some photos of my favorite Trail romps — sometimes just me and my human, sometimes with our whole pack of friends. 

If you’d like to join the pack, you can sign up to participate or even donate to support the Trail through my grandpawrent’s page. Every little bit helps so that the Trail stays a happy, safe place for our humans as well as us.

I’ll be wagging my tail forever in thanks.
