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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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. [...]

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! [...]

Eeek! Just over two weeks to camp. Only two weekends left. I will start washing clothes and packing this weekend, and see if any of the weather guessers have an idea what the weather will be like.
I have to get fecals on the boys, too, dangit. So maybe I can do that Monday, if [...]

Argh!!! Only 17 days left! Man, time sure flies. I have to pack, but I can’t pack up the car until after Jessi gets spayed and Lucy gets her tooth extracted, next Monday. Because I’ll be on my way to a training class too, so will have to have four dogs in the [...]

Do your dogs wear collars on a daily basis? If so, what kind? When I was a dumb kid I had Kip in a metal choke all the time. I didn’t know they could be dangerous. When I found that out, when he was probably about 10 or so, I put him in a buckle [...]

Kip didn’t get any titles. Kip didn’t get to do agility or flyball or herding or obedience… Kip was my companion through the most difficult part of my life. Though my codependency, though my addiction to men, through my moves from house to house, Kip was always by my side. My best friend, [...]

So check this out! Is this a cute picture of Levi and Chase or what? I thought I’d take a picture of the picture, and also have Levi and Chase in it too. I got this from Canvas on Demand. It’s an 8×10. The photo was too grainy for a bigger image, [...]
