It was a good day for a hike with four legged friends. Participants met at the Bear Creek staging area at Briones Regional Park with leashes, water and most critical - dog treats for a vigorous three mile walk up the Crescent Ridge Trail and beyond hosted by Dog Dynamics founder Bonnie Brown Cali. First timer Kali, Hudson, Hershey, EZ, Oscar, Tank, Ella, Quill, Jet, and Bear, who would not stop wimpering prior to the hike, enjoyed the relatively cool semi-overcast day. Prior to setting out Bear's owner commented that she has four kids who never whined this much.
"It was an amazing mix of dog breeds: Australian shepherds, a Rhodesian ridgeback, Weimaraner, several Labradors, an American Stratford Terrier, and a couple of Labradoodles," said Brown Cali. "All of the dogs got along well, and it was a good workout and a great social event for everyone." She plans to it again on the first Saturday in September; new participants are always welcome, go to www.dogdynamics.org for more information.
