More puppies

Well there are puppies everywhere!!! My friend Amy just got a new golden retriever puppy Yankee!

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! Isn't she cute!

mud Mud MUD!

Well spring is coming. How do I know ~ because my yard is pure MUD!

The dogs are leaving nice foot prints behind, where ever they go.

I am so sick of the mud though. Every time the dogs come back in the house, there is mud everywhere. I have pretty much given up on wiping the floor every time they come in. The dogs are driving me crazy too. Since the yard is too muddy they can't play ball, so they are getting a little hyper. I've been working on some new tricks or polishing up old ones, but these guys need to RUN!

Ella

Here are some pictures of my godchild Ella. She visited me at work today, and she had fun playing on the boats!

What a cutie pie!!! She turned two back in December.

Growing up

Here are some newer photos of my sister's puppy Isabella

In this photo she is sleeping on top of "her"cat George.

George keeps her entertained ~ luckily he likes her too.

Another injury

Poor Brooklyn - she just can't catch a break! She totally tore a nail in half, now she is nursing another injury! She does have nail problems - seems to break at least one a year :(

Got a picture, but she doesn't want me touching it~ OUCH!

It started just half way up the nail shaft, but it is now all the way to the base of the nail, poor baby! Walking around in the hard snow damaged it more. Now she goes out with her boots on. It sure has slowed her down, she doesn't even want her ball. Once the quick dries up a bit, I'm going to try and dremmel it down, but she won't let me do it right now.

Paw Print

Well I've been busy at work (Boat Show season), so I haven't posted for a while, but wanted to show you something fun we did. Here is a picture of the paw prints we did. The dogs weren't too thrilled, since the first couple of times I did it, all the clay stuck to their paws and I had to scrub off their paws. Then I would mush up the clay again, and start over. What I found out was, if I wet their paws before mushing into the clay it didn't stick as much.

High in Trial

Well I haven't had a chance to take a picture of Brooklyn and her Gigantic Ribbon we got on New Years Day. We went to Waukegan, IL to and ASCA trial and got 6 Q's out of 6 - all FIRST places, and High in Trial Elite! YAHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't think we will ever accomplish that again, but it sure felt good! Post pictures soon!
