I decided to make a birthday scrapbook which i will update for each birthday

Maya turned 4 on the 16th so Megan and I took her on a hike. My family don't really do anything for the pups birthdays, they don't see the point. I was excited to try out the 50 foot lead i bought the pups and Maya loved the extra room. There were a lot of people there since the weather was so nice. Unfortunately there were a lot of joggers and Maya's scared of people running at her. Her fear of joggers started when a kid at the dog park was barking and chasing dogs around. Maya was on the end of her leash and one guy came up to me and asked if it bites, i said no so he starts walking by. Maya cautiously walks up to him (he was creepy looking) he asks if i'm sure it doesn't bite so i call her to me. I wouldn't tell you she doesn't bite if she does.

Anyway here are some pics that we took! I'm still a newbie to using my sisters camera so some of the pics are a little out of focus.





Maya's pack fell off so she attacked it because it wouldn't stop touching and chasing her.






You calling me?


Hiding









Me petting Cloud



Someone's coming


Squirrel!

OMG! t's a rock, you don't see those everyday

Come on Maya!



Hurry up Megan!


Why are you hiding behind that tree?

Let me just stand here until you come out and ruin your guys idea of a good pic

The walk was awesome! I obviously took Cloud (sorry guys, no Yuki pics) because Yuki is only four months old and seeing as we walked two three hours, didn't wanna damage her joints But Cloud got in on the Maya birthday walk fun! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAYA!!!

Anyone else go on hikes for birthdays or is it just a traditional cake/party theme?

Great photos!! My girl Maya has the same outward hound pack but in pink! It's a great hiking pack for a good price!

We love going on birthday hikes as well!
Lycus' birthday will be soon, so hopefully I can take him on a small hike.

those steps look fun! great day out, i see a few backpack mishaps i miss hiking in woods like that

We got them when they were on clearance for $17! So I bought 2, would have gotten 3 but they only had 2 left I have an orange and green one, maybe I'll try and get a pink one for Sophie.

Maya just loved running up and down those steps! Unfortunately the pack falls off pretty easily It would fall of if she rolled on the ground or hit the end of the leash going after a squirrel. Luckily she stopped hitting the end of the leash after that.

I love hiking in the woods here. Especially at Caesars creek, Maya loves swimming there! Kay probably will too

The pictures came out great! Looks like they had tons of fun!
