Empty

The house feels so empty tonight with out Perkins running up & down the hallway with different toys in his mouth! , his dad picked up today. Here are some pictures I took of him this morning...I had taken the sheets off the bed to wash them, & poor Perkins had to curl up in the comforter instead of burrowing under the covers like he usually does!

New Tradition??

Today I drove to Fort McLeod to meet with Marilyn Clayton & her smooth collie Zephyr. Marilyn & Zephyr go on a circuit of trials every year, & last year she called to see if I wanted to meet up with her. I jumped at the chance as we had only ever spoken through e-mails. Well I got an e-mail earlier this week that she was coming through again, & wondered if I wanted to get together. I hope to do this every year! We had a great time, took the dogs for a long walk , then sat in the shade under a big tree & had some lunch. It is always wonderful to see Zephyr in person...I just love this dog! He has 58 titles to his credit now! He is a champion in Can. & the US. & has titles in Can. & the US. in obedience, rally, agility, herding & carting...there is nothing this dog can't do!
It was fun taking pictures & videos in the exact same spot as last year.....only Kort looks a little different! Oh, & we had Perkins with us too, Zephyr was quite taken with him! I particularly love the video in which both Tate & Zephyr are wagging their tags in unison, must be a tri thing!
Last year......
This year.....
Last year......This year.......

He's Back!!

Perkins is back for 10 days this time!! We all love having him, he fits in perfectly & is just one of the family.
Perkins always comes with his favourite ball, but this time he also came with a stuffie....a baby Perkins!!!......Kort may be a touch jealous of Perkins toys!!, see how he has stolen them!, he has the ball tucked in between his front legs!......Of course Perkins won't put up with that!...Must get my stuffie!, must get my stuffie!......Now, for my ball!!!......It sure is hard work protecting my valuables!...better have a drink!......Kort & Perkins are never too far away from me when I'm inside & are the best of friends.....here they both are under the computer desk while I was on it this morning.......
