For the last seven years, we have brought our sable fox Pomeranian on all our camping, backpacking, and kayaking trips. We would not be able to leave him behind, he lives for the outdoors. Our little dog is the most happy when he is off leash in the wilderness freely exploring his surroundings. He has his own flotation jacket; he likes to ride at the stern most times and so we've given him the assignment of Canoe Navigator.
Pompom has another reason he wants to come along though - he has an important message for the children all over the world. Pompom wants to show kids how much fun it is play outside:
If you are like Pompom, then you know how much fun you can have camping, canoeing, kayaking, backpacking, swimming, chasing squirrels.... no, no, no, no - Pompoms are not allowed to chase squirrels!!!! (sometimes he gets distracted....)
Pompom wants kids to know that protecting nature is their job too. It's everybody's responsibility to do their part - our natural resources need to be protected so that children and grown ups and puppies everywhere can go outside and play! We all need clean water to drink, clean air to breathe and
Pompom is going to join his masters on the Cross Canada Canoe Expedition as Canada's new Let's Play Outside Mascot.
