This trip is being arranged around Herding Day on the saturday as Lisa is Shelties / Rough Collies, I don't know what is on the sunday. I have been asked if I would like to go but really need the Group 5 or 2 day We seriously thought about going over on Group 2 day to show but have since decided to let Tico's passport lapse. It's an easy journey and we were thinking of going and doing a quick turn around as spectators. Still thinking about it !!!!
@lukris:
Yes, it will be nice to meet you too. We're on pretty late so hope you get there in plenty time.:)
Hopefully as our plane is landing at 11.30 so should see them in the ring:D
Hi Quercus! I was SO disappointed that we couldnt make it, but the reason why made up for it, we were driving to chicago to pick up Meeka who we adopted from BRAT.. Saturday was the only day we could get her, and we left at 6am and didnt get back till 9pm.. darn snow storm! We wanted to go sunday but again the snow, and we didnt want to leave her the first day she was home! How did the show go?? i meant to post saying i wasnt going to make it, but i was getting all the plans ready to pick up meeka and it slipped my mind..
I came across an enclosed doggie park here in Queens New york. Not very big but the owners seemed pretty alert which is great. Champ loved it, except that we had one big hairy dog enter the area and I knew this was trouble since my B loves to pull hair (mine too) anyway as soon as Champ saw this dog he was off and I was off after him. Callin ghim to come over,,yeah right. I almost caught him twice then finally I saw him grab the dog and kind of nip and pull. I was so eager to grab him at this point since eventhough I know he wouldn't bite the dog, I'm sure niether the owner or the dog would appreciate getting a haircut from my B. Well as I was running over to them I saw my B grab hold of the dogs tail and pull. Let me just insert this: the other dog was too busy playing with big dogs her size to worry about this little brat pulling at her. Anyway I caught up to my B and put his leash on ending his fun time at the park and when I look down at him, he had a big fur ball in his mouth…how embarrasing. All in all the park was a nice experience and gave my B a chance to run around free without his mommie chasing after him on the leash.
