Calm Today

31 August, 2007 (09:41) | Uncategorized | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

Today is my last full day before leaving for Dog Camp! Yay! I am so excited. I’m also going to go to the airport tomorrow morning and meet the people from Houston and the four collies that are coming in. It’s early, so it should work out just fine. I won’t be able [...]

Plugging Along

I am highly stressed about going to camp and getting these four collies in from Houston at the same time. But logically things are really coming together well. I just need to know exactly what time the jet is landing, then I can notify all my people (wow, I have people! lol) when they [...]

Almost Done Packing

27 August, 2007 (17:00) | Daily Posts | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

Okay… Saturday I took a break and was a bum all day. Yesterday (Sunday) I went to the laundry and washed a dog bed and a huge comforter that is too big for our machines, so I can take the comforter to camp with me. I have my packing list, and [...]

Things To Do Before Camp

OH MY GOSH! Camp is only one week away. One week from today (Saturday) I’ll be on the road for camp.
I have to clean the house, because a friend from Colorado and a friend from Richfield are coming Friday night to stay. Fortunately the maids are coming Wednesday so hopefully the house will be semi-decent. [...]

So I’m learning about Squidoo, and there are things I really like about it. I have a lens for Tip Tail but I haven’t updated it for a while, I really need to add more and learn some good layout tips from other lenses.
There is a dog blog lens that looks great. I’m surprised Johann [...]

Taking what we can get

24 August, 2007 (19:45) | Uncategorized | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

The bad thing about rescue is that we usually have to take whatever we can get. And that, mostly, is volunteers who do there best but sometimes can’t do what is needed. Anyway, these collies we are getting from Houston, the flight date might be changed. Ugh.. I hope it still works [...]

Arranging Transport for Collies

24 August, 2007 (16:05) | Uncategorized | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

Okay so… looks like we are planning to get three collies from Houston, Texas, on September 1st. They are going to be flown into Aspen, Colorado. So I just need to find out how to get them from there, to here.
Of course September 1st is the day I leave to dog camp! Ugh! [...]

Collies on the Web!

I don’t often find collie blogs on the web. But a collie blogger found me! She has a gorgeous sable and white rough collie named Maudie she does obedience with, and she is planning on having Maudie be a therapy dog, too. Collies are great therapy dogs. They are friendly, mellow, [...]

Dogs can find Mold

23 August, 2007 (13:30) | Daily Posts | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

Sometimes I think we might have mold in our house. We live in the dry desert, but we use a swamp cooler to cool the air, and it’s moist and pushes water rich air all over our house. I would love to get mold testing PA, and these guys use dogs to find [...]

Don’t try this at home

Okay just let me start this post with … when I was living on my own, before my husband (then my boyfriend) moved in, my dogs did not beg. But they know what they can get away with, and with whom. This pack is, actually, no longer allowed since Chase and Jessi [...]
