On the road!

We have been at an obedience trial somewhere every weekend recently, and for the near future, so Sketcher has been getting a lot of travel experience.  Just recently, he's decided that going into his crate in the van isn't all it's cracked up to be, which means I need to focus more on getting him play time.  Last weekend we were doing conformation as well with Teaz, so we couldn't get dirty but this weekend we are off to Great Falls for "only" obedience, so I plan to take time to let them just run and have a good time on the way up.  Plus we will be camped on the grounds and there is plenty of room there to run amok - here is a pic from a previous trip.  This was before the trailer, and the van.  I was working on Dodger's OTCh so this must have been 2010.


Dodger in front, my third OTCh and Proxy (Sketch's grandmother), my fourth OTCh.  Teaz will be number five and Sketch will be either number six or seven, depending on what Rapid can accomplish and when.  That's the plan anyway ;-)  for now, he is just a happy puppy!

Three months old!

One of these days I'm going to learn to hold the head parallel to the camera (or judge).  Sigh.  You'd think after all the dogs I've shown, I'd know how to do this.
