Pearly Whites

I am showing Matthew my pearly white teeth!

Deep Snow

I think I need some doggie snowshoes!!

Winter Hike

Mommy and Daddy got a new digital camera and we all went for a hike around the farm so that we could try it out.

Here is a picture of me with my RR brothers, Argos and Tsavo:


This one is of all four of us dogs walking through the woods with Daddy:



This is my Black Lab sister, Abby:

And this is me, Tchaka, standing in the cattails near our dam:


I think the new camera is a keeper!

Best Of Breed

In January me and Mommy went dog showing at the Land O' Lakes Kennel Club show in Saint Paul. My good friend Debbie Lynn Davies dog showed with me in the Open Dog class. We won that and then we went back for the Breed class. We won Winners Dog and Best Of Breed, over three Specials! That was exciting. Then we had to wait for the Hound Group class, but it took so long that by the time they were ready for us my frend Debbie had to leave to drive back to Canada. She found a friend of hers to dog show with me in the Group class. My new friend is Karen and she was very nice to me. I liked showing with her, but we did not win any ribbons.

Mommy said we looked really great anyway, and she was still happy because I got 2 more points towards my Championship, bringing me to a total of 9 points. Now all I need is to get my Majors and I will have my first title.

Looking For Pheasants

Daddy and me out hunting for birds in the snow.

The Snow Plow Monster

Me and Argos were outside playing in the snow one day when all of a sudden I had to run for my life!

The giant Snow Plow Monster was right behind me and I was afraid it was gonna get me!

Then I found out it was just Daddy clearing snow from our driveway.

Agility Pause Tables

Daddy is building me some pause tables so that I can practice for Agility. Here I am supervising his work to make sure he gets them exactly right.

Daddy is an excellent carpenter and he built my tables perfectly, as you can see in the next picture:
