Dog Show Days

Kamo and attended 2 conformation shows this weekend and the little man did pretty darn good I think. Saturday he was Best of Opposite Sex and today he showed his little heart out and came home with Best of Breed. I am always proud of my guy and today I was so happy with how he handled being with his new handler Peggy. She is so good to him and that makes everything so much easier ... for him AND me!!

I am putting him in a couple of times a year just so that he remembers what it is like to be out there and I wanted him to get to know his new friend. I was very happy when he jumped up and gave her a big kiss in the group ring.

No more conformation for awhile but we were all smiles with how he did this weekend ... I don't think that he could do anything that would make me unhappy ... and I am pretty easy to please when it comes to him

Here is his picture


and a couple from ringside. I still have to hide so the pictures are not very good but I tried ...

In the rottie ring






In the group ring






Thanks for letting me share

After I let Kamo go to the lake!!! There is still ice on it so we were really careful, but I thought he was going to climb out of his skin when he figured out where we were going

First order of the night ... get the shampoo smell off!!


Next step ... find a good stick


Then, Break it in a little ... these sticks are out of shape after just laying in the bush all winter!!


NOW it can go to the lake!! Yipee!!!


Yup picked a real good stick!!




The end of a pretty fun weekend

Playn' in Puddles

Spring has FINALLY arrived. It took forever and is a couple of weeks later than normal. I had to break it to Kamo that swimming will probably be a couple of weeks later then he was expecting ... BUT ... I did have some big puddles he could play in. With a huff he agreed to the puddles (he really didn't have a choice but I chose not to tell him)

My camera was not focusing very well and I finally realized that the lens had a funny dirt spot on it but by then it was too late. The pictures are not the best but the dogs had such a good time that I had to share anyway.

OK I'm not at the lake but I can pretend that I am












Oh yeah ... I am going to run and plunge in to this cool, clear and VERY DEEP lake












Big splash ...












... And even I believe that I'm in the lake












Monkey See












Monkey DO












GIVE me the stick ... you might be bigger then me but I am a herding dog and I was put on this earth to rule the world!!











Told you ... amateur!












I can fly!!












And pounce












We hope that you always have puddles to splash in
