Winnipeg - Walking Along the Red River

My name is Mavis and I live with my 2 dogs (Dakota - Springer Spaniel cross and Chester - Irish Setter) and my African Grey Parrot (Jewel) in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

Jewel does not go on walks with us, so it is just the two dogs and I who spend time walking each day. Many of our walks are right in our own neighbourhood, but that means they must be on leash for the entire walk.

We live two blocks from the Red River and that is where we head each time. One great thing about walking along the river is watching the constant changing views throught the year. We have 4 distinct seasons that determine the length of our walks - we walk longer on days with pleasant temperatures (not as long on extremely hot or extremely cold days).

We are just at the beginning of winter now and until the rivers and ponds are completely frozen, the dogs will not be off-leash except in our own house and yard.

Thanks so much for sending this in Mavis. We think it gets VERY cold in the UK but I'm sure it's a lot colder where you are!!
