Excuse Me… Why Wasn’t I Invited to the World Dog Surfing Championships?
Hey Pack. We need to have a serious conversation. I just found out the World Dog Surfing Championships happened this weekend. And nobody invited me. … Seriously? I’m not saying the event wasn’t awesome. I’m just saying… The organizers clearly forgot to invite the future champion. See, unlike some dogs, I’m not just pretending to

Dog Beach Safety Update: What Happened to Me at Del Mar Dog Beach
Hey Pack, it’s Kodiak. You guys know I love the beach. Running. Swimming. Chasing balls. Making new friends. Well… most of them. If you’ve been following my adventures for a while, you probably remember that I’ve actually been attacked by other dogs at the beach — and it’s a good reminder that even the happiest

If I Ever Float Away in a Kayak… We Have Problems.
Hey Pack, it’s Kodiak. I saw a story today that had me barking at the TV. A dog named Bruce was out kayaking with his dad when the kayak drifted away into the North Sea. Next thing you know… Bruce is floating around all by himself a few miles offshore. Just chilling…literally, it was really

Veterans Need Service Dogs — And Nobody is Paying for It
Hey Pack, Kodiak here. 🐾 I need to talk about something that has me very fired up today. Veterans with PTSD Need Service Dogs. The Government Won’t Pay for It. Here’s something that makes absolutely no sense to me. With all the stuff the human government blows money on, they refuse to fully pay for

Every Dog Needs an Emergency Go Bag
Hey Pack, Kodiak here. 🐾 I have a question. Have you ever heard your humans say, “Grab the emergency kit!”? I hadn’t either… until Dad started putting one together. Apparently humans have these things called earthquakes, wildfires, power outages, floods, and other emergencies. I thought emergencies were things like running out of treats. Or accidentally

Why I Need More Than Just a Walk — Kodiak on Dog Enrichment
Hey Pack, Kodiak here! 🐾 My dad will tell you I like to do things. When I’m not sleeping (which I do a lot — my dad calls me a sleepy head) I like to play, or go for walks, or swim, or chew, or eat, or whatever. But my dad sometimes yells “I’m working!”

Keeping Your Dog Cool on Hot Summer Walks and Hikes — Kodiak’s Tips
Hey Pack, Kodiak here! 🐾 I’m pretty lucky. I live by the beach in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, so when it’s hot outside, me and my dad just walk along the water line in the ocean. The waves come in, I jump in, the waves go out, I shake it off, and we do it all over again.

Padres Fans, Did You Know About the K-9 Discount?
Hey Pack, Kodiak here! I’ve got a little secret. Well… it’s not really a secret. But I’m always surprised by how many people don’t know about it. Every single time the Padres pitchers combine to strike out 9 or more batters in a game, everyone gets 25% off almost everything at Petco the very next

One of the Scariest Days of My Dad’s Life (And Why Every Dog Parent Should Know What To Do If A Dog Is Choking)
Hey, it’s Kodiak. Today I want to tell you guys about something that happened to me that got really scary really fast. One minute I was doing what dogs do best: exploring the backyard. The next minute I couldn’t breathe. Not cool. See, I found part of an old toy outside. To me it looked

What Kodiak Thinks About the Cardiff Dog Pack Book (A Review By the Dog It’s Based On)
Hey, it’s Kodiak. So apparently my dad wrote a book about me. I found out the same way most dogs find out important news — someone left it on the coffee table and I sniffed it for a while. Then my dad read it to me. Here’s my official review. The Parts About Me Obviously
