A family visit from the north

It was SUCH a fabulous idea that Beth Mares had when she suggested that she drive down with Sherman and Bert for a visit on her time off. We had been talking for a couple years now about getting together for some rally obedience brush up training and also some mantrailing. It happened to be that the time she had off was my birthday weekend. I can’t think of any other way I would want to spend my birthday than a leisurely weekend, with no schedule, playing with our hounds and hanging with our friends! THANK you Beth for all the fun we had, for your gracious birthday gift and for your help with obedience. Thank you to Melissa, Mike & Paula and Bev for a wonderful birthday. It was so much fun! Here are some pictures from our fun obedience time!

“Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without a doubt the best deal man has ever made.”

"Bloodhound puppies don't have a center of gravity. There is simply no middle to them. They flow like prune juice. No matter where you grab them they seem to be slipping and squishing the other way. You always end up with lots of loose skin and a puppy that is yelping as if you were killing him. They are like pillowcases half filled with lead jellybeans."
