Good morning and Happy snowy Monday Ottawa! My northern dogs had a great time dragging me through the snow banks this morning and it was nice to enjoy the quiet of our beautiful city transformed after the snowstorm. Have a great start to the week! #Ottawa #OttawaWanders

Ottawa folks I highly recommend skating or walking/running along the @NCC_Skateway to work this morning it’s in way better shape snow wise than the impassable sidewalks. #Ottawa #OttawaWanders

Sidewalks who needs them when they can just be snow storage for the roads. I know there was a lot of snow but yesterday the sidewalks were passable and now they’re massive snowbanks while the roads are clear. #Autowa as usual showing that it prioritizes cars and not people. #Ottawa

Very snowy Sunday in Ottawa. My Northern dogs have been enjoying the snowy weather lately and having lots of fun playing and sniffing in the snow. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Happy Gotcha day to the best girl! I can’t believe it was a year ago that Ocean arrived from Nunavut. It’s been a wild year and I could never have imagined all the ups and downs of our journey together and unexpected puppies but it’s been the best adventure with my sweet girl.

It’s always a good morning when you see the Rideau Canal Skateway juggler. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Sebastian is very dedicated to his role as branch manager and was living his best life this afternoon with all the fallen branches from the wild windstorm. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Started the day with a beautiful sunrise over the Rideau Canal Skateway and ended the day with a beautiful sunset over the Rideau Canal skateway. Another great winter weekend in Ottawa! #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Saturday morning snuggles. The best way to start the weekend.

Good morning and Happy Saturday! It’s a chilly but beautiful morning in Ottawa. The dogs and I enjoyed the pretty peaceful sunrise over the Rideau Canal Skateway. I love that even when it’s cold there are lots of people out for an early skate. Have a great day! #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Just a boy and his stick. Sebastian is very passionate about his role as branch manager. #SticksAreLife

The relaxing start to 2025 that Ocean deserves after her wild year last year. Hoping 2025 is a calmer year for both of us (and puppy free, other than Sebastian).

Siobhan Kirkland @siobhanwanders.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

There’s no better way to start the new year than with a peaceful walk with these two even if it’s a grey dreary day in #Ottawa . Since the snow has mostly melted we went to Lansdowne rink snowpile for some snowy fun. I hope you have a great start to the year! #OttawaWanders

Some end of 2024 reflections. At the end of last year I told myself I was finally ready to get a dog after lots of dogsitting experience and finally being rooted in one place after years of moving around but I could never have imagined the chaos of Ocean’s 11.

Good morning! It’s a beautiful snowy morning here in Ottawa. The dogs and I had a peaceful snowy walk enjoying all the neighborhood snow creations. A lovely way to start the day. Have a great day! #Ottawa #OttawaWanders

Thanks @devoncantwell.bsky.social for sharing your Jewish traditions and hosting my visiting family for a delicious Christmas and first night of Chanukah dinner. Grateful for our little Ottawa chaos dogs extended family.

Santa Paws brought Ocean and Sebastian lots of toys and treats which they deserve because they are the best dogs. Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah to those who celebrate!

Good morning and Happy Sunday! It’s a chilly but beautiful morning here in Ottawa but we were treated to a beautiful moonset and pretty pink sunrise. A lovely way to start the day. Have a great day! #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

A lovely relaxing day of wanders in Ottawa enjoying the snow, the cool looking fog, and some good coffee and birthday treats. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

The best birthday morning walk buddies. Lots of crunchy snowy sniffs and snowy playtime. I’m lucky to live somewhere so beautiful and to get to share it with these two sweet chaos dogs. Looking forward to a nice relaxing day of snowy wanders. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Not the biggest fan of his boots or winter coat, but he looks so cute in them.

The best girl peacefully enjoying her snowy sniffs while her baby is a chaotic menace.

Having a puppy is really fun. Good thing he’s cute, because sometimes he’s a really annoying menace.

Siobhan Kirkland @siobhanwanders.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

Lovely snowy evening walk enjoying the first real snow of the year with my two northern dogs who could not get enough of the snowy sniffs. Excited for lots more snowy adventures with these two. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

A magical snowy morning in Ottawa! I can’t wait to take my Northern dogs out later for some snowy wanders. Have a great day and enjoy the snow Ottawa! ❄️ #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Siobhan Kirkland @siobhanwanders.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

Ocean and Sebastian enjoyed the first snow of the year and Sebastian’s very first snow with lots of snowy sniffs, rolls, and Sebastian has already discovered he can eat snow so he’s a big fan. Looking forward to more snowy wanders. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

I also got to hangout with my 3 other favourite dogs: Padfoot, Khaleesi, and Reef (my chaos puppy’s chaos sister). Ocean did a very thorough sniffspection of all the interesting dog scents when I got home.

I was spoiled by another incredible Thanksgiving dinner by @devoncantwell.bsky.social . The nice thing about having American friends is getting to have two Thanksgiving dinner. As always Devon outdid herself and everything was so good and even made 3 pies for 3 people.

Adorable synchronized snow digging in the Lansdowne rink snowbank still impatiently waiting for real snow. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

My Northern dogs are so ready for winter and real snow. We’re not the only ones someone made a little snowman with the skating rink “snow”. I cannot wait for our first snowy walk. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa

Siobhan Kirkland @siobhanwanders.bsky.social · 28/11/2024

Ocean did not understand the stair prison and why we could not go up the stairs. Also quite ridiculous to see stair prisons already when it’s unseasonably warm and there’s not a flake of snow. #Ottawa

Good morning and Happy Sunday! It’s a beautiful morning in Ottawa and the dogs and I enjoyed the pretty sunrise and holiday lights at Lansdowne on our peaceful morning walk. A great way to start the day. Have a great Sunday! #OttawaWanders #Ottawa #MyOttawa

Siobhan Kirkland @siobhanwanders.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

Grateful to my chaos dogs for getting me out last night and this morning even though it’s been gross and rainy. The Christmas lights at Lansdowne looked especially pretty in the rain with the puddle reflections. #OttawaWanders #Ottawa #MyOttawa

A very happy Ocean enjoying lots of frosty morning grass rolls.

I’ve created monsters with my early morning dogs. I wanted to sleep in a bit but they were both up and whining to go out and wrestling at 5:30. I have nobody to blame but myself. But we did get to enjoy the early morning peace and quiet and and the beautiful moonset and sunrise. #Ottawa

9 degrees Celsius on November 16 in Ottawa is wild and while it’s nice to be able to be out enjoying the beautiful weather it’s also alarming that it’s this warm in November. My Northern dogs are very ready for snow but at least they’ve had the Lansdowne arena “snow” to tide them over. #Ottawa

Beautiful sunset and supermoon last night (apparently it was a beaver supermoon). #OttawaWanders #Ottawa #MyOttawa

The sweetest faces to wake up to (also notice that Sebastian is snuggling one of my sock’s, he’s obsessed with socks).

Siobhan Kirkland @siobhanwanders.bsky.social · 14/11/2024

Love an unplanned bath after he rolled in poop on our walk and after I had to battle him for the emotional support rock he was determined to try and suck/chew on and choke on or swallow. Excellent self-preservation skills. A very clean cute chaos baby.

Good morning and Happy Tuesday! It’s a busy day but so nice to enjoy a peaceful walk with Ocean to reset before the day ahead and we were treated to a beautiful spring sunrise over Patterson Creek. A lovely way to start the day. Have a great day! #OttawaWanders #Ottawa
