What I did on my summer vacation

Yes I know I have neglected this blog. Facebook has sort of taken the place I think for many of us who started "blogging". No excuse though. I really started this more for myself than anything. Just to go back and see where I was, where I am and where I hope to go. While there really was no vacation to speak of this summer I thought it has been that long if not longer since I have last shared what's up here for anyone who has stuck with my Blog long enough to care.
So what have we been up to?
A little of this

And a little of that

 

I managed to get to a few dog trials as well.

Opal has started her trial career and I am happy with what she is showing me. We even managed a few placements in 40+ dog Pro/Novice class.
Still no Open placements for Rush and Flint. Their work has been good, but just not good enough to compete with the cream of the crop.

I wish it was not so important to me when I go to the trials . It is though just the same and I would not be going if it was not!
