"What Do You Carry In Your Back Packs?"

We've been asked a lot lately about what the girls carry in their backpacks since we got them and posted pictures of them.  We also get asked by people when we're out on the trails and they see them.  I'm not exactly sure what people think they might carry in there, but I hope we don't disappoint anyone.  There are no Avon products in there, nor anything that might be turned loose to be chased on the trail.  The girls are still disappointed about that last part.

Right now, we're working on getting Bunny and Morgan used to carrying the packs, so we don't let them carry a lot of weight in them. We want taking the packs to be associated with having a good time.  That means that we're easing into it, because we don't want them to feel too sore or overworked after we've been out with their packs on.  Eventually, we want to work up to them carrying the packs for longer distances, and perhaps with a little more weight, mainly for Morgan.

For now, they carry a canine first aid kit.  I'd hate to be out on a hike and have one of them get hurt and not be able to do something for them.  They also carry their own water bowls and water bottles.  Treats are also included in the packs.  Poop bags are stowed in there, too, since it's pretty much a guarantee that we'll need those.  Both of the girls have ID tags in the bags as well, that have contact information for their vet as well as family members who can be contacted in case of an emergency.  The ID also states that if they are found alone, then something must have happened to us and to please care for them until we can be located.  Hopefully, that will never happen, but I would hate to have them or us need help and not have prepared for it as much as possible.

Hopefully that solves the mystery about what the girls carry in their Wolf Packs!
