Practice for the big three
For those of you that don't know the big three are:
Solider Hollow Classic, Heber City, Utah
Meeker Classic, Meeker, Colorado
USBCHA National Finals Sturgis, South Dakota
All world class trials with world class handlers.
Last year I travelled to Solider Hollow and loved every minute of it and this year we are travelling the Sturgis to the National finals. One day I hope to compete in all three.

A couple of new additions
Ice is a coming three year old. He was trialed once before I purchased him and made a big impression. I will be trialing Ice next spring in Pro Novice and if things go well this fall as well. I have completely fallen in love with this boy he is super nice to be around and very fun to work. He will be getting his own page on the website when I get some free time.
Another new arrival is Zoey. I am very excited to see what Zoey has to offer in the future. Zoey made the long Flight from the UK last night. Zoey is a 10month old sable border collie. She is registered with the ISDS and is from total working lines. Zoey will also be getting her own page on the website soon.
This is Zoey just before she left for Canada.

Look out world.
He got his learners license and had his 15th birthday last week too.
I took this picture of the first time I let him drive my truck. Suffice to say now every time we go somewhere he wants to drive. And conversation is always around the subject of what car he should buy, the price of insurance or price of gas. He was very surprised when it took $160.00 to fill up big blacky.

From Stockdog to Showdog
During lunch Risk was forced to hang with some of his new "friends" in an x-pen.
At the end of the day Risk decided he would much rather stay on the farm then be a beauty queen.

To grandma's house we go
Grandma does have one hard and fast rule. No dogs allowed in the garden
Whoops how did that get in there
(good Risky)
My mom learned very quickly that when you are picking vegetables out of the garden you don't leave the basket unattended or the dogs will gladly empty it for you. My dogs love their veggies.
