So.. I think I am an uber geek.  I was reading old topics on a few boards maybe even this one.. I don't remember.. and found the dog scouts of america..
http://www.dogscouts.com/
I was a brownie, a girl guide, a pathfinder, a ranger, a sparks leader and a brownie leader (yes, I know, I'm a geek) and I lived for collecting badges..
And I think it would rock my socks to earn badges with my pup.. Only I'm in Canada.. and the only group up here is in Alberta :(
They even offer camps with you and your dog involved.
So, am I super geeky.. or does this at least amuse other people even if they aren't the outdoorsy type?

There's not one here either...  ???  Can we start an online troop?  and have everyone here in it?

It is so wierd that you brought htis up. I'm moving to the LA area this summer and am planning on joining one of the two groups there. I thik that it will be alot of fun to hang out with other outdoorsy dog people. It will also be a nice change for Bear to be abloe to imrpove his skills in the wilderness.  ;D
