Happy Birthday to Syd, Grizz and Winston!

December 10th, 2011 11 comments

The P-kids birthday was on the 8th. Winston’s birthday is in a week or so and The Q-kids birthday is the end of the month.  Our Party Planner and her assistant put together today’s birthday bash.

Susan made really cool bandanas and the dogs loved wearing them.

Barb baked a giant pumpkin cookie for the dogs and cupcakes for the humans. Awesome!! I don’t know where Barb finds the time for this sort of thing.

Geez—I hope my Homies don’t see this.

I hope my Homies see this—they’ll be jealous!

It’s my birthday—it’s good to be Queen Prada!

Forget those NASS whipper-snappers! Funny was the highlight of NASS. No one told her that she was a Veteran. It is difficult to take pictures through tears…

Thank you, Funny.

VP2 Alta-Tollhaus Sawyer aka Huck at NASS

November 1st, 2011 10 comments

Some people Clicker train their dogs. Alta-Tollhaus dogs are not Clicker trained, they are Shutter trained—Huck is definitely an Alta-Tollhaus dog:

Huck has just made his turn. He’s out at the end of the lead, moving like a pro. I’ve got a few seconds to shoot and he’ll be directly in front of me.

Click

Click—I have him lined up for the perfect shot

Click. “Oh, hey! Are you taking pictures of ME?”

“Seriously. I can pose for you.”  Click. It is in their DNA…

This is one of my favorite pictures. Many people admired Huck as he went around the ring.
