• Where Did 2008 Go?

  Well, another year has come and is nearly gone already. I don’t know where the time goes anymore! It’s been a year full of great accomplishments, a big loss, some continuing struggles and new beginnings. Wow, we really crammed alot into a year! LOL Zoe earned her MACH, to become the first Sheltie in Utah to have that title. She also qualified to go to the AKC National Agility Championship in North Carolina in March, and we’re really looking forward [...]

• Dreaming of Agility?

  We have some of the more portable equipment in the house right now because the weather isn’t letting us do much agility outside. The baby apparently thinks that the tunnel is dual purpose and that it makes a pretty comfy bed. LOL

• More Lucy

  O.K. I know, I know, I don’t post much about Lucy. That’s partly because she’s not my dog. She’s my husband’s dog and she doesn’t care a lick about anything that I say or do. She’s not interested in training and she can’t figure out why everyone else likes it so much. She’s happy just being Lucy, and there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s been that way for 10 years now. One thing she is really good at is being [...]

• Wordless Wednesday 12-17-08

  Has anyone else ever noticed that Lucy is always sticking her tongue out at me? I know I’m not making this up, I’ve gone back through the old pictures and it’s true. My husband’s dog, Lucy is always making faces at me.

• Snow Baby

  Well, she wasn’t so sure about the cold weather and the funny stuff on the ground at first, but it didn’t take long before the little foster pup was enjoying the fresh snow!  

• Playing in the snow!

  I hate winter, but I love to take pictures of the dogs playing in the snow. Here’s some from Saturday and Sunday. Enjoy!

• Magic Muffin Tin

  We finally got snow today. Not that I want snow, I hate winter, but I know we need the moisture. Anyway, before it started snowing today it was the most miserable windy morning, so we decided to stay inside and play where it was warm. I thought it would be fun to play a game that our friends over at A Dog’s Journey had posted about a while back. I don’t remember what she called the game, but she did [...]

• Zoe’s going to the AKC National Agility Championships!

  I didn’t want to post till I actually had the entry in, but Zoe qualified for the AKC National Agility Championships this year! I’m really proud of her, I’ve been so fortunate to have her as my first agility dog. This year the Nationals are being held in North Carolina at the end of March. Yes, I know…it’s an absurdly long way to drive from Utah for an agility trial! LOL However, my husband and I decided to take his [...]

• Still here…

  It’s been so long since I’ve posted it probably seems like we’ve dropped off the face of the earth, but we’re still here. Just busy! We’re closing in on week four of Rogue being on the Fluoxitine and Alprazolam. I am still really anxious to see progress, but it seems slow in coming. Every once in a while I think I notice something that is a different reaction, or at least a smaller one. However, for the most part, (I’d [...]
