Our Puppy's First Time Camping In Algonquin

Check out our puppy's first time canoe camping in Algonquin Park. We paddle into Algonquin with our Alaskan Malamute puppy Lucy for the first time and spend the night camping together. Prior to camping overnight in Algonquin we spend the day at a backcountry campsite introducing our young puppy to camping and sleeping in a tent. This was an amazing experience and I look forward to many more adventures with Lucy.

Props for trying with that bread! They have a mind of their own and are free spirits. If they like water they will swim till they can’t. Good luck. Good trip too!

Love this! Cutest camping buddy for you guys!

Beautiful pup and welcome back Alec! I was missing your videos and chill vibes!

So cute! I regret being such a strict disciplinarian with my pups after they became my most loyal companions, more so than humanly possible. They’re gone now but they would’ve given their lives for me. I’m sure yours will be as loyal, so keep that in mind when she chews up your furniture.😄I can’t wait to see her grow into her majesty!

So good to see you are back with another video. Ive certainly been missing them. And congrats on the new pup in your lives. Such a beautiful dog.

Glad to have you guy's back! What a great pup, love the pointed ears. Looks like you're training is paying off. I bring one of those winter boots to stop salt in the paw but have it on hand just in case my dog cuts or burns her paw.

Lucy looks adorable, congratulations! Her temperament appears to be perfect. Looking forward to seeing more new videos 😊

Gosh Alec and Paige, somehow my 'Alec on Adventures' notifications got turned off. Lisa and I just finished dinner and settled in to watch some TV and I said, 'it has been quiet on the Alec and Paige YouTube front'. Searched and saw we are behind three videos!
Just watched this one with Lucy, what a great companion for your tripping adventures! Plus we feel we know her since we met in 'person'!
This will add a great dimension to your future trips.
Keep adventuring!

That looks like fun! Could I suggest that you consider adding a 'quick clot' powder to your doggie first aid kit? Broken claws and wounds can bleed a lot and distress the animals, and the powder helps stop the bleeding quickly. Anyway, cheers from Toronto. Enjoy camping if you manage to do any winter camping. I'm hoping to make it up Algonquin this winter.

Lucy looks like my puppy's twin! My 4 month Akiani is a Nunavut husky. She's my second tripping dog, she will be joining Zora and I soon. You two are doing a great job, I can tell by her temperament. I would recommend a tick removal tool for the critter and yourselves, I wouldn't use tweezers again because they bruise, but one of the plastic levers you put around the tick and rotate, they sometimes give them away at the vet or you can buy them. In Lyme country I get the dogs vaccinated and treat them seasonally with Nexgard Spectra, which keeps the ticks off them 99% of the time. It also covers worms that they can get from mosquitoes and rodent meat (trust me it happens fast). Also some kind of dog safe eye drops or plain saline rinse, it's a common need for young dogs that get into everything. You can carry an Epi Pen Jr. in case of severe respiratory distress caused by anaphylaxis or ingestion of toxins such as poisonous plants, but it's a last resort and you hope to never use it because it's quite dangerous for her heart. Benadryl is much safer if she just swells up. I'd be happy to answer any questions about dogpacking!

You might contact the couple from the Two Packs and a Pup channel. They have a female golden retriever who has lots of canoe camping experience

If Lucy needs any inspiration about how to howl, perhaps check out K'eyush The Stunt Dog channel or Sherpa channel.
