Traveling The World with my humans

This morning when we went to Tim’s house we saw that the trashcans were lying on the ground and the garbage was all over the place. My humans immediately thought this was the work of a bear and I could smell him. I wanted to stay out there and follow the smell but my humans won’t let me. They picked up all the garbage and put it back into the trashcan and after that we went into Tim’s house and had breakfast. Later today Tim took the canoe and went to the little island on the lake. He wanted to clean up there. The weather was very good it was warm and sunny. Luckily my humans decided to enjoy that nice day too and they took another canoe and we went to the island too. First the humans had lunch. My mistress made some hardboiled eggs and some sandwiches. She gave me some of her hard boiled egg. I love hardboiled eggs! My master helped Tim burning some of the wood that was all over the ground. My mistress and I went on a walk on the island. We walked the trail all to the other end o

Silver and Sally are still in heat. Oh boy, that’s a hard life. I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, I can’t think. I am sorry to say but I am not myself at the moment. All I can think of are these female dogs on the property. My humans are not happy with the situation and they have to keep me on the leash all day long. I don’t like that at all but I think they think I am safer this way and they might be right. I lost weight and everybody tells me I’m skinny. How can I eat while my favorite (well at least for the moment) female dogs are just a couple of feet away? My mistress told me she hopes the females get out of heat soon and I will behave “normal” after that. I even start fighting with Diesel because I am jealous and I don’t know why. Yesterday Josh was here with a big backhoe. He moved a little shack from one place to another. That sidetracked me a little today from following Silver and Sally.

After we came back from the Kayak Challenge in Timmins I found out that Silver, one of Tim’s dogs is in heat. A couple of days later, Sally, Silver’s mum, was in heat too. Well, I am an unfixed male dog and you can imagine being around two female dogs in heat is quite a challenge. Size wise they are way smaller than I am so having puppies with me would be bad for both of them. Normally if there are female dogs in heat the unfixed male dogs follow them wherever they can, stand in front of their house and wait for them and just get crazy. I am different, I don’t know why, but dealing with both of them is just more than I can handle. They come to me all the time, let me smell them and invite me but I really try hard to ignore them. My humans command me to leave them alone and they watch me all the time. In the mornings both, Silver and Sally, wait outside our trailer and whine for me to come out. Last weekend my friend Diesel was here, another male dog around with these females in

August 27, 2017 Today we did not get up as early as yesterday. My humans went to the Pancake Breakfast and let me try some. That was yummy. I love pancakes but as my stomach is still upset I did not get much. Shortly after we came back to the trailer Tim showed up. We set up the tables again and my humans started to twist balloons. Today the Summer Water Sports stunt show took place on the river. A lot of people went there to watch this. Business for my people was a little slower today. It seemed like people spent most of their money the day before. My humans still had fun and I rested underneath the table. During the last stunt show the moderator said that one of the water skiers tripped because he wanted to save a balloon in the water. My master just made a Not Captain America out of balloons and my mistress said he should give this to the people from the stunt show as a thank you for rescuing the balloon. So he went over there and gave it to them. They were just preparing fo

August 26, 2017 It was only 5:30 am when my mistress got up. Tim wanted to show up at 6 am to go paddling and my mistress wanted to attend the Sunrise Ceremony, Sacred Fire lighting, Smudge and Blessing of the Water which was done by the Natives. My mistress likes that and she told me it is very impressive and touching what they do. It was very cold outside and I stayed in the trailer with my master a little longer. After the ceremony was over we saw an eagle flying over the territory. My humans had a quick breakfast in the trailer and a coffee from Tim Horton’s (thank you to that nice man from the security). After they set up their table again people came and wanted to have balloons. My humans were busy all day long and could not even take a break. They said they are fine with that because they can rest in the evening and rather be there for the customers. Once in a while my mistress or my master took me for a little walk to let me pee. I still did not feel good and my stomach

August 25, 2017 More packing was going on in the morning. The humans packed Marc’s truck. At about 10:30 am the humans, Diesel and I left in the truck, pulling the big canoe on a trailer. My mistress told me that we would go to Timmins to the Great Kayak Challenge & Festival. The humans set up everything there and I could lie underneath the table and sleep. I need to admit I emptied the trash while the humans picked up the canoe last night. There were chicken bones in the trash and I ate them all. Today I don’t feel good – my stomach hurts and I have diarrhea. Last night I had to go out twice and my mistress had to let me out. I feel sorry for that but I urgently had to go. Tim set up his table with a lot of pictures, paddles, the two canoes, books and much more. He even showed videos about the “Power of the Canoe”. My master and my mistress set up a table with their balloons and they twisted for the kids. This afternoon they weren’t too busy but it was only Friday and two

August 24, 2017 Yesterday the humans packed the trailer with a lot of stuff: benches, papers, displays, life jackets, balloons, matrasses and canoes. What is this for? They even packed my harness and my leash. I think I better stay close to my humans to find out what’s going on and to make sure they don’t leave without me again. My mistress just came back from a journey and I don’t want her to leave again. Tim and Marc left with the trailer and came back without the trailer a couple of hours later. Marc and Diesel stayed at camp tonight and they said they would get up early in the morning. My mistress and my master haven’t packed that much balloons for a long time. Maybe they have a gig somewhere? But what are the canoes for? They even picked up a big canoe from Camp Bickell this evening. We went to bed early today and they still did not tell me what’s going on.
