Hotel Time...

Tammy and I decided (ok I really didn't want to set up my tent for one night in that crappy weather!!) to get a hotel room and ended up at a "remodeled" Motel 6. They changed up their color scheme a bit and put in laminate floors. Really smart idea for the floors. I am sure they are much easier to clean. There wasn't much room to potty the dogs, but it was cheap and clean. Should I mention the enormous Great Dane that arrived in a TINY sports car? I wonder where he pottied??? Vinnie and Seeker enjoyed getting a room too!!

Rochester

Saturday and Sunday, Tammy and I were in Rochester, Minnesota for an agility trial. We braved the wind and rain (ok... we hid out in her van while it was poring down and got a hotel room instead of camping). I didn't run a dog, but did get some photos. These are a few of my favorites (the rest of the photos can be seen at www.inflightphotog.com)

Vinnie's Day-But

Well, it finally happened... I ran Vinnie at a trial. He was brilliant. He took a spill on Saturday in a slick spot on course and I carried him off. Everything was fine - just a little shaken (me more than him!). Sunday we managed to run the whole course without injury!! Yeah!!!

Trick Training...

doesn't always go as planned... sometimes it goes better!

Off with his hair!

I decided to take a bunch of hair off of Vinnie, but first wanted a few head shots. Not sure what the next "hair style" is going to be. I may just grow the HCC back out again for fall/winter. It was just getting too hot and hairy for summer.

First Full Course

Today is actually the first time Vinnie has ever run a full course. He did awesome. I, however, need a LOT of improvement!! Tammy was kind enough to set up a Novice JWW course for us to run. We ran it the "right" way and ran it backwards the second time.

Wishing you all a safe and happy 4th of July weekend!!
