Picture updates.

Well, I had to do it differently but I was finally able to post the picture. 
How cute are they?!
This is Marlee and her "big sister" Simone.  Both beautiful girls!
 
 
 
Teller enjoyed his Christmas goodies 
 
 
 
Axyl.  Handsome boy.
 
 
Honor and Miley.  It's too bad there aren't enough dog beds and
they have to share....  They both wanted the bed closest to the fire.  ;o)

Christmas Pictures and Agility videos!

I received a Very Cute picture of Marlee and her big sister, Simone, next to their Christmas tree and wanted to post it here but for some reason Blogger.com is not letting me post pictures at the moment - but it will let me post links to videos - go figure.  So here are two videos I received of two of the boys training for Agility: 
 
This is Teller, he lives in Tennessee:

 And this is Axyl, he lives in North Carolina:

I'm so excited to get to see them work and can't wait for them to start their agility careers!!  So proud of them!

Hopefully whatever the glitch for pictures is it will be fixed soon so I can share them.  Happy New Year!  Wishing you all the very best in 2013.

Coursing Aptitude Test - who knew it could be this much fun!!

This weekend Laurie and I took Tommie, Hacker, Honor and Miley to some Coursing Aptitude Tests down in Hollister.  OMgosh, it was so much fun!  Everybody but Tommie excelled at it.  Tommie didn't want to go far enough from Mom (me) to get the job done - but she still had fun, just did it her way (so typical!)  The course is 600 yards long for larger dogs, 300 yards for small dogs.

Here's Hacker - chasing the white plastic "bunny" (plastic bags) that are pulled very quickly on a course of pulleys directed by a guy with a joystick.  It's a pretty cool system, they can speed the "bunnies" up and slow them down with the joystick.  The white things you see on the ground are the "bunnies" that the dogs are trying to catch.

Honor - boy can that girl Run!!!


Miley - Never took her eyes off the "bunnies".


 
There was a big variety of dogs from small Terriers and a Daschund all the way up to Weimaraners and Salukis.
