Going to Colorado

I’m going to Colorado on Wednesday for a Three Day AKC Agility Trial. I’m driving down to Richfield to hook up with my friend there who has shelties she does agility and obedience with. And we are going to carpool to Colorado and stay there with a friend who has a couple of [...]

Dogs on the Radio

I sometimes listen to podcasts about dogs… which is fun. It’s like listening to dogs on the radio… and recently I went and bought a high definition radio. I liked the idea of being able to get substations in addition to the regular stations I listen to.
And in addition to getting an HD radio, [...]

Making Dog Things Easy

Well, I do try to run some collie rescue still, though other rescues are really finding homes for the collies that are appearing in rescue lately. But when I was full bore into rescue, I often needed ways to organize the various components of rescue, including microchips, collars, treats, food… etc. And [...]

Wanting a Home Make Over

I would love to have my house made over. It’s small, only 1300 square feet, and the kitchen is absolutely horrible. It’s too small, and old. The tile is corroding on the counters, the sink is awful and has no disposal. And the cabinets are too small for even a cereal box. [...]

Trials are Expensive

Lately I’ve been spending a lot of money entering dog trials… agility and flyball. And next, I’m going to start entering obedience as well, with Levi. Chase isn’t ready yet but Levi is almost ready and this summer he gets to go into the obedience ring.
I’m really excited for obedience! It’s fun, and challenging! [...]

Walks and Things

Took the pups for a walk today.. just a short one, and around the block, at lunch, from work… it was so nice outside! Makes me think of making sure we are secure in our lives… and how we may need insurance claim consultants one day to ensure that.
I am always worried about the [...]

Lots of Dog things in Las Vegas

I love going to Las Vegas… however, I don’t have a Las Vegas trip planned in the next few months. Which is quite odd… I went there last October for flyball and agility (and stayed a week in between, wish I could have seen a show).
Then again I went the beginning of March for [...]

The Husband’s Birthday!

Today is my husband’s birthday. I’m glad he doesn’t want to go out to dinner, becuase I am beat after doing the DOCNA agility trial all weekend. I’ll post about that in a bit… but I do have to post about my husband’s birthday!
Sometimes I actually get him a couple Birthday Cards, because I [...]

Fancy Dog Events

I missed it this year… but every Valentine’s Day around here we have a special event where you can dress up and take your dog out to dinner! Okay your significant other can come too… my Husband and i have done it a couple of times, and it was a lot of fun. We have [...]

Snow or Sun?

Well, I want sun for sure! I am tired of the cold! We have very wintery mountains here in Utah. Not only do people ski, they also snowboard. And on the mountains there are search and rescue dogs quite frequently. Many are trained in avalanche recovery, too. I am amazed by these dogs. [...]
