Hiking with Kevin

>   Dog Parks  —  SNIF  @  9:52 pm   

Every dog has his favorite walker, and looks like that some dogs have a strong preference for Kevin. Kevin started to work as a walker two months ago.

Kevin takes the dogs twice a day to a wood. Taki the Yorkshire and Dunkan the Boston Terrier spent the all day with me and Kevin. Lily, Lucy the Boxer, Moose, Sally and Fred joined us to the morning trip, while Lucy, Felicia the poodle, Zeek the pug, Lucky, Manny, Charlie the Labradoodle and the two brothers Duncan and Oscar participated to the afternoon trip.

All the dogs were wonderful and very well behaving.
Kevin starts his day driving his van through the South End, Beacon Hill and Cambridge, to pick up all his “customers”.
In Beacon Hill we picked up one of my favorite dogs, Taki, a 2 months old Yorkshire named “The Toy”.



Dirty couldn’t join us because he had a little accident to his leg, but Kevin took him for a walk (and to say “Hi” to me and Taki, waiting in the van).

A treat once in a while makes the trip shorter.

The most exciting moment for dogs is when we arrive to the wood: watch what happens when Kevin opens the door of the van!

Here is Charlie the Labradoodle.

Kevin even nicknamed some of them.
Here is Sally “Sad Face”.

Here is Lucy.

Moose “Moossolini” got the stick!

Time to go swimming.

Here is Lucy.

At the end of the trip Kevin enjoys running in the forest and all the dogs run behind him, but Lucy is the only one able to jump with him at the top of this stone.

The worst part of the trip is the poop collection, something Kevin, as every responsible walker, is very concerned about. Kevin always has with him a funny bag dispenser in the shape of a bone.
Other than dogs, another of Kevin best friends is Febreeze. “He saved my life!” Kevin said, spraying the van full of smelly dogs. Febreeze was useful as Kevin also noticed that one of his customers (I won’t say which one of the group) has a gas problem…

  1. Just a reminder-
    The Middlesex High Fells serves as a backup drinking water reservoir. Swimming in the reservoir, whether by dogs or people, is illegal. The Fells Reservoir is regularly patrolled by both State Police and DCR Rangers.

  2. I think that dogs are like angels, they are not dirty!

  3. The dogs are not swimming in a reservoir or a water supply used as a back up water source.

  6. Doggie Day trippers looks so professional with a video camera following them around. normally they have 20 out of control dogs and NONE of the dog walkers clean up the poop!
