Holly's dog trial Sept 2008

Kyu and I travelled to Paxton Valley to join our friends for a very nice dog trial. Rose and Kristi preceeded us by a few days, so we took the scenic route and stopped to play at one of my favorite dog "rest stops".

Peeing on the scenary... the shrubbery was a bit too scant for my liking. Kyu has no pride.

In the cabin, Rose is molested!

Rose and my god-dog - they snuggled a LOT.

For a part of the trial, we watched from the kitchen :) With Lynny!

After Day one, we relaxed and enjoyed each other's company at the handler's dinner. Some of us became VERY relaxed!

Holly lectured us...

Lorne thought it was all pretty funny. Especially when he threw red wine on the carpet. Nice one Lorne!

Lynne tried for revenge on Albertans...

But later managed to bury the hatchet :)

Really?

Such a nice looking Jewish girl.
Why would she put an innocent butter lamb in the microwave?

The HORROR!

Special awards...

With the judge

We even ran dogs - it's not all a party you know!

Beautiful Paxton Valley - the road home
