Dougie Down the Pet—Best Canoeing Film Winner
Year Produced: 2009
Year Released: 2010
Dougie Down the Pet is a really warm story of a father and son on an canoeing adventure together and it reminds us all of the wide-eyed excitement and wonder that we all once had for being outdoors. Dougie is a cutie, and his dad, Scott MacGregor ( publisher of “Rapid Magazine“, “Canoeroots” magazine and creator of the Reel Paddling Film Festival) explains why he has decided to run rapids with his 4-year old son while there is ice on the side of the river! It might sound crazy, but Scott’s reasoning makes total sense!
