While Walking Duncan
http://whilewalkingduncan.blogspot.com/
The daily thoughts and observation of a guy in Colorado who dedicates entirely too much attention to his Golden Retriever, Duncan, and takes special solace in their daily meanderings. Their poetry is in their movement. Their bond is unforgettable.

Night Terror
We heard them out on the golf course on our last walk of the night.It wasn't even a walk really, just a quick trip down to our end of The Run, a sort of hillside circle surrounded by pine and juniper trees. During last week's storm I'd carved out a t...
New Bed Negotiations
Last night was truly terrible. If I thought sleeping on the futon with my four furry companions was bad, I hadn't considered a full night on the couch, Duncan crushing my legs, Winnie twisting my back until everything below my nipples was numb and Pi...
A Space Big Enough
We have been sleeping on a futon for the past eight months, and while it's been cozy and warm, it's also been a bit crowded. Duncan, who ignores the fancy bed roll we bought him when he was a pup, has never been one of those dogs who curls up when he...
In the Window
Winnie acts like she doesn't like him, but deep down I think she's developed a secret love for Duncan. She perches in her usual spot on the back of the couch and looks down on Pip, who competes for my attention by playing fetch with Roo, or rolling u...
Remember
There are nights when we walk and my mind reels under the unexpected and sublime delicacy of our ambling. I find myself thinking, "Remember the color of this sky, the way the darkness comes like a slow kiss from the east and the orange light in ...
Waiting without Knowing
I had to leave work unexpectedly today, but only for a few minutes late in the morning. It wasn't anything I planned and didn't expect to be gone long. It only takes six or seven minutes to drive home and the time away from my dark desk was a welcome...

Walking With Duncan is a blog which is most definitely high on my Daily Reads list. Every day, Curt and Duncan go walking and while Duncan tends to doggy business, Curt examines the world around him...sometimes at a distance, other times right up close.
That is, when he and Dunc aren't wrestling in the grass...or bunny-hunting...or just watching the sun set over the Rocky Mountains. Most times, reading Walking With Duncan is as heart-warming and soothing as sitting in that patch of daisies in Bloom County used to be back in the Eighties.

A true dog lover....and beautifully written.
One of the best blogs possible for anyone who loves dogs, or just the journey of a daily walk. A wonderful insight to the relationship that only A dog can give. Love Duncan !!
