How is This Comfy?

Silly Salty.

Merry Christmas!

Going a little bit out of order here. Christmas was a great as always. My sister, brother-in-law, niece, and brand new nephew were here which made it extra great too!

Yes I really like my candy cane antlers!

Sleeping Dogs

Because I haven't posted any pictures of my dogs sleeping recently. These were taken after the agility trial but before I started my "wild" New Year's Eve. I guess it's hard to be a successful agility dog. Notice in the last one of Kip he has a toy by his head. That dog always has a toy, even when he's asleep.

Last agility trial of 2017

Also one of the few agility Trials of 2017 I should go back and look. I'm sure I did only around 5. Seeing as how I used to go almost every weekend that's a big change. I think I'd like to get back into trialling and training more but I will have to some housing decision changes in order to afford it. I had started training more I know I'd like to keep that up but it is also not quite in my budget.

But enough talk about money, the dogs did well at the trial. Dottie and I are still trying to get a teamwork back together but in our last run it was like old times and she qualified with a third place.

Kipling did very well. He is quite the wild child and even when we qualify the runs are never smooth. But that just might be his style. The first day he qualified in both standard and jumpers with first places in open. That moved him up to excellent jumpers. The next day he also qualified in open standard which finished his open standard title. We do not qualify an excellent jumpers but he did pretty well.

I had a good time as and as I said I hope I can get back into it more.

Balloons

Right before we left the restaurant on New Year's Eve they gave me all the balloons because if they leave them in the restaurant if it set off the alarm. Then I accidentally left it in my friend's van when she dropped me off! Which is probably good because what was I going to do with them?
