Rainy Season

I think its finally here! Yeah we have gotten quite a bit of rain this last week. The pastures are finally starting to grow, hopefully we can get caught up before Fall. So exciting!!

We have a tropical depression throwing us rain today too, very welcomed rainy day!

Also another update from the AbbyXTigger litter. Elliot was RWD both days in MN at his first weekend out. More updates soon!

Catch up

So finally pics... We took a walk middle of the day but it was a pretty nice day.




The boys, they are whipped tonight but look happy here.




Sally monster having a mid day soak.





Rosy follows suit, wish she would do the same and come in season:-))





I dare you, says Oli!





and he's off!



Wow what a busy weekend. Lots of lessons and I'm exhausted! I'm ready to go back to work for some rest! It was nice to spend some time with the dogs this weekend. Also saw a really big bear this weekend! Not really common but not rare either.




Dogs and a toy








More toy play










Lastly, Dory and Bolt showed again today. Dory was RWB and made a solid run for WB. Bolt was again WD/BOW for another pt and he is now up to 6pts! Yeah puppies:-))







Finally the gopher turtle video. We have a wayward male gopher that has been all over, I'm not even sure where he came from... The dogs were just fascinated by it. I did help him out after the video and put him over the fence, hopefully he found his home.

Dory News

Sorry no pics, next week should be better. I miss blogging:-((
Good news from Dory and Bolt today! Dory was WB/BOS for 1 pt and Bolt was WD/BOW for 2 pts! This is Dory's first point, yeah Dory!! It sounds like she is enjoying the life of a princess living with 3 boys! I hope to have a pic to post soon!

Birthdays and photos finally!

Finally I get a post! I took the dogs for pics in the middle of the day, unfortunatly it was really hot so most of them didn't want to do anything! The young'ns of course still have energy to romp and play:-))

Sally and Patsy doing what they do best, play, play play...


The girls on the look out for trouble!



Sweet Mr. Oli, would love attention all the time:-))




Rosy the frog dog!



Sally the frog dog. Happy early Birthday to Sally and all the AbbyXBeli kids! They turn 4yrs old tomorrow, I can't believe its been that long! Also belated Birthday to all the EvyXGlade kids who turned 4yr on June 8th. Hard to imagine...



Sally the dog is always looking for trouble, enough finds her; I don't think looking for it is necessary!




Rosy ears, I just love her ears :-)))

Good herding weekend not much else...



Well I posted on my training blog about how much fun the girls and I had herding this weekend. I've been negligent again to the blog because I can't seem to get done before 9-9:30 every night when I get home. The sheep are eating me out of house and home because we still have not had enough rain to get grass. The dogs are starved for attention cuz I'm working different hours and not around as much as before. I don't have time to take pics because I'm feeding during our walks now.... the list could go on but the bottom line is that I am negligent!:-))

There have been some good things going on elsewhere though. Dory is learning to be a show dog, though unfortunatly came in season ... Remy has his therapy dog vest (or at least its ordered!) Yeah for Ana and Remy, I'm so proud! Merlin has been working sheep as well and seems to be doing quite well. Also got a great update on Bolt from an instinct test and he seems to have promising capability. So even though we are a bit bogged down here, Raglan pups elsewhere are holding the banner high!:-))

Hopefully we will have time again soon!
