Runner News – Important Announcements

July 27, 2022

Thanks for logging in, and Happy Wednesday! 

Here’s a rare mid-week post with some new available steady runs!

Keep your eye on the HDRC Vacation and Substitution Calendar, it’s starting to show some activity!

ARE YOU READY FOR MORE RUNS ON YOUR SCHEDULE?

Let me know how you’re doing!  If you’re ready for another steady weekly run and nothing is coming up here that fits your schedule, just shoot me a text or call and I’ll get to work for you!

Here’s the rundown of steady, and fill-in opportunities that we have right now:

AVAILABLE STEADY RUNS!

Odin Pugh  (Service Level 1, 2x/week )

Meet at 151 Morey Place, Greensburg

 Available runs:  Sunday Mornings 8:30am

Liz will be trying him in the fall, but he still needs someone to run the rest of the summer.

Odin is one of our founder dogs.  He has been with us since the very beginning, and he was one of my first, very steady buddies!  He is a large muscular dog, and used to be a pretty crazy run, but he has mellowed with age, and now he’s just a fun pittie run, we usually get 3 mi or so.  His people like a nice steady relationship, so reliability is a desired quality in his new buddy. Angela has been covering him, but he’s ready for his summer runner.

Max Veltri  (Service Level 1, 2x/week )

65 Suncrest Dr, Delmont

 Available runs:  2 evenly spaced weekdays, Prefers late morning

Max is a cool little American Cocker Spaniel. He’s no athlete but he enjoys a little 2.5 mi outing of mixed jogging and walking. He’s been going on Wednesday and Friday, and he doesn’t always get two per week.  His owner is ok with flexibility of scheduling week-to-week.  I usually check with her every Sunday for the week.  Alan and Lisa are covering him until he gets a steady runner.

Cash Dufford  (Service Level 2, 1x/week )

4981 RT 982 Near Lawson Heights

 Available runs:  1x per week, any day except Wednesday, after 4pm

Cash is a recent rescue. Before he was rescued, he learned that he can’t trust most people (I tend to agree).  He’s slowly learning that we are all here to help him and love him now, and he’s coming around. He’s a handsome Lab/Pit(heavy on the Pit) and he loves to go on his runs!  He’s an easy Level 2, some jogging, and some walking. We went with Level 2 not for the additional exercise, but for the additional exposure to us and the environment.  I treat him a little differently that the rest of our dogs for now, and I’ll provide you with instructions.

Gus Dix  (Service Level 1, 1x/week )

425 Hamel Ave, Greensburg

 Available runs:  1x per week, Wednesday 4-5pm

Gus is a Happy mix, kind of looks like a retriever.  He’s another brand new customer, but he runs like an old pro!  He’s right by the 5 star in South Greensburg.  His mom works a long day, and Gus needs a break before she gets home, so his house will be unoccupied at pick up and drop off.

AVAILABLE FILL-IN RUNS!

There is nothing short term, but please check the HDRC Vacation and Substitution Calendar for August, September, October and November.  Fill-in runs are available!

If you have time off planned and will need coverage, please add your needs to the HDRC Calendar.

Sometimes the schedules of these runs can be tweaked to fit into your schedule, so if something looks like it’s worth investigating, please ask, or make an offer!!
