On Sunday our spring type weather continued. I was meeting some friends to go tracking with my Labrador Retriever “Dylan” (Bahamian Ch. ShadowGlen’s Midnight Dylan UD, RE, MX, AXJ, OF, NAP, NJP, TDI, CGC, CC, Bah. CD, Bah. RN). Ivan (Alta-Tollhaus Ivan) begged to come along and got his first taste of tracking!
This evening we took Ivan to the vet for his second vaccines. He has doubled in weight and now weighs 30 lbs….and he is not fat…just a big boy!
Then we tried “stacking”. I know it’s not perfect… both Ivan and I have a lot to learn!
Ilea got her second round of shots yesterday and weighed 25 pounds. My vet has a vet tech named Ilea. My human Dad says I’m growing too fast. A few more pictures for the record. Keith
See, Dad, I am not too big to make it through the fence.
Lisa is taking me for an adventure. I’m so happy I will do a one-leg stand.
What is this wet, brown stuff? Is it really called dirt?
Gee, it is fun digging in wet, dirt and look at the root I found!
The WDA is having another calendar contest. Alta-Tollhaus photogs that are WDA members need to blast the judging panel with your great photos.
This is the official info:
The GSDCA-WDA office is accepting photo submissions for the official 2011 GSDCA-WDA calendar. An independent panel will judge the entries. Some of the top entries will be published in the GSDCA-WDA The Complete German Shepherd Dog and 12 winners will see their dogs in the 2011 calendar.
Here are the requirements:
Send photo submissions to wdaphotocontest@gmail.com
You can only submit photos that you have taken yourself (copyright law)
All entries must be received by 30 April, 2010
Minimum of 300 dpi of an 8 x 10 image
Please do NOT include your dog’s name or any other identifying labels
Please do include your contact information including WDA membership #
All participants must be current members of GSDCA-WDA in good standing
No professional photos please. We are looking for candid photos of your dog(s)
The twelve winning contestants will receive a free copy of the calendar. The calendar will be available for sale later in the year.
By entering your photos in the contest, you, the photographer, give GSDCA-WDA explicit permission to publish, distribute and reproduce your photo for commercial or any other reason in any GSDCA-WDA publication.
I think the “No professional photos please” means no official show photos of your dog(s). There were professional photogs that were entered in last year’s contest. If you enter a photo, I would probably recommend not signing it, especially if your normal signature includes “24kPhoto!”
