Hello listers, 

Happy Sunday to you!

I’ve just returned from my first birding experience with my guide dog, and it was a blast! My pup, York, did beautifully on the nature trail; I was very impressed with his outdoor skills. Of course I traveled with my usual supplies: water, bowl, poop bags, first-aid kit. 

But for any other hikers or birders on the list, would you recommend additional supplies? Are there essentials you take with you when you and your pup brave the wild outdoors? Other recommendations you’d offer? 

Best,
Emily, with York
