Big Show Weekend

Rudy did great this weekend with Aunt Debbie at the dog shows in Greenville, SC. He got a 5 point major on Friday and a 4 point major on Sunday. Total points for Rudy 12, Polo still stuck at 14 (one away from the CH). Rudy came back with Aunt Peggy but forgot his ribbons. He is looking for them in his trophy display case.

Thanks Aunt Debbie for working with Rudy and
making him look so good!

President's Day Holiday Weekend

We have been working on the house. Not much fun for Polo who just napped under his favorite blanket.
Another bathroom has been upgraded thanks to our plumbers helpers!

Thank you Papa and Grammy for the advice on installing a toilet.

More Snow & Homework

It snowed again this morning but turned to rain around lunch. The boys loved playing in the snow and took it as an excuse to dig in the backyard to find out if snow improves the flavor of mulch.

Since the backyard has returned to its winter mud puddle status, we had Polo & Rudy do some Agility homework. The video was on improving speed for Polo who is our confident, precise, and generally slow agility dog.

Winter finally arrives

Rudy and Polo enjoyed playing in our first snow of the winter. We were were not sure if winter was even going to come this year since we have had spring like weather.

Rudy was not sure about the cold stuff on the deck and had to check out the yard before venturing out.









The boys chased each other around the yard until all of the snow had been kicked around. I tried to get an action picture and was lucky to catch them in the view finder! They finally stopped for a treat.


Happy New Year

Happy New Year! Looking forward to a great year of shows and hopefully a novice agility trial.

Rudy keeps growing and tips the scale at over 50 lbs. He has been playing with his Christmas toys and loves to pull the stuffing out (sorry Grammy)! It is tiring work.
