Barbie Goes To Burlington

Barbie travelled with Emma and I to shows in Burlington ON. As a baby she was prone to car sickness, but luckily she has outgrown that problem, which made the trip much more pleasant. It was cold, rained on Saturday and was damp on Sunday, but the girls didn't seem to mind. Barbie in particular loved the time in the motel room. I think the trip did her a lot of good as she got a lot of attention, which she seemed to like and lots of exposure to different dogs. We'll see if it translates to a better time at handling class!

Hair Grows...Right?

I can't keep away from the Poodles with scissors; even though I am still relatively new at all this. Barbie was very patient with me, and almost fell asleep standing up! In trying to fix the problem I made a couple of days earlier where she was looking roached in the back I think I took off too much of the topline angle. It is supposed to be an unbroken line from base of tail to top of head. Oops. Back to the drawing board...I think another couple of months growth and then I'll leave it to a pro.

Foo Fighters



The Foo sisters don't actually fight...

...but they do look pretty vicious when they play!
While they had a number of toys out on the deck, it was more fun to play with the same one...
"You know you want it!"
I love how they play with their toys. Bunny still kneads with her paws like she did when she was a puppy.

"Don't even think about it!"
All toy games eventually lead to their favorite game of bitey face!

That was fun!

Mud Pies

It was a beautiful morning and my friend Brenda's last day visiting. We went for a walk with the gang and they were their usual wild selves.
Bunny loves to start the run with some steeplechase jumping...

Barbie didn't hesitate to go wading in the ditch with the Shelties! She doesn't mind mud, but hates things sticking to her!

The thing about starting the day off with a walk like this is I know what I'm going to be doing for the afternoon...:-)

I can't wait to see the pictures that Brenda got!
