3 Days in Algonquin Park, Backcountry Canoe Camping in the Pouring Rain with a Puppy - Part 1 

Thanks! We like to keep it simple 😄 thanks for checking out the video

Their sound is unbelievable.. but very powerful and they seem very determined 😂 thanks for watching Cindy!

She made us very nervous at first too! She's getting better, and we're getting used to her canoe antics, thanks for watching! :D

It's so much more fun to have a camping adventure! :D

Thanks for watching!

We don’t mind some rain, have to be prepared and expect it.☺️ Yes those bullfrogs were very noisy! I can see how if you are used to them they would help you sleep.

Thanks for subscribing! She has a never ending supply! If only we had so much energy too! Camping trips are great for her for that reason :D

Thank you 🤗

So glad you enjoyed it! :) You should try a canoe trip, Ontario is full of beautiful lakes and trails! We would recommend camping during the summer months in Algonquin if you are just starting out (July, August, September). Early Spring and Late fall can get quite cold and you have to be careful when dealing with rain or potential canoe tips. Camping in the summer months also means you also don't need the same level of gear to keep you as warm and dry. If you wanted to go in cooler temps we would say the 'gear must have's' are 1) Solid rain gear (rain jacket and potentially pants) to keep you dry. 2) Warm base layers (made of merino wool ideally). 3) Always wearing a life jacket (PFD) while in the canoe or crossing water.

4) A sleep system that will keep you warm at night. Sleeping bag temperature ratings are based on survival, not comfort so always bring a pad and bag that is rated for colder temps than are forecast.

@@TwoPacksandaPup wow!!! Thanks so much for the reply!!! That's a really great point about sleeping bags being rated for survival, not comfort! Can't wait to see more from this channel!

I guess it's kind of randomly asking but do anybody know of a good site to watch new movies online?

Thanks for watching!

Hahaha so true.. 'extra bacon' there is no such thing! All of our planning revolves around Emma 😁❤️ Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! The very first time was a bit of a disaster (not filmed) at 8 months old haha but we altered our trip to be in the canoe less and it was a good first experience although stressful for us. The next year she did much better, but she just loves the water SO much that it's hard to teach her to stay in the canoe when we're traveling. She is getting a lot better though! Its very rewarding when they start to do well out there, just pack a lot of patience and don't try and go too far in case yours is a swimmer 😄 puppy life jacket helps take worry away even if they are good swimmers, we got one for following trips and feel better. Enjoy the experience, hope you film it!

We prefer Alpinaire.. we’ve yet to find Backpackers pantry that we really like. The three sisters stew is pretty nice, but we like it more for a hot lunch than a dinner. Personal preference I guess, because we’ve heard many good things about backpackers pantry meals that we end up not really liking.

haha, yes Emma is fearless for sure, and a little crazy!

Thanks for the feedback 😊 will work on implementing this on the next trip!

Thanks for the feedback, we've certainly made mistakes, as we are new to doing this with a dog. The scenes you are referring to are when we were trying to guide her back to shore. We also repeatedly stopped and got her back in the boat only to have her continue to jump out, but, she now has a life jacket on whenever we are en-route! We've worked a lot on having her jump out of the canoe less, she just really enjoys swimming. Our focus is really not on helping her feel secure in the water as she swims to her hearts content every weekend, we are working on her staying in the boat more.
