Over the weekend hubby-guy talked me into going out on the canoe for a day. I’m not a big fan of water, but since I’ve got a spare DSLR, and lens I’m willing to risk to water I’m talked into the boat as long as I’m promised pretty scenery for pictures. I have to keep [...]

Roy’s 1st beach trip, 7/11 AKA A Corgi day out
I was reminded I’d set these pics on the backburner… too much play, and not enough time spent blogging this time of year! Roy Rogers took his first trip to the coast, and impromptu trip with him, Galaxy, Traum, kidlet, Hubby and I. We needed a break, and the coast is always [...]
Galaxy glamor shots Stumptown
Galaxy and I had a blast showing at Portland Kennel Club’s Stumptown dog show this weekend, and my good friend Kay came to help with pics, to play, and keep an extra eye on Dea. Gotta say, Kay is the BEST Auntie in the works! I owe her so darn much, she’s wonderful, [...]
Puppy beach glee
Yesterday we decided to pack up the Cardigan crew and kidlet, to save out allergy-ridden sinuses from the grass pollen and spent a couple hours at the beach. The above photo tells all- Roy Rogers LOVES the coast, and says he wants to be a full-time beach bum when he grows up!
Roy Rogers at 9 weeks
Aunty Kay took this photo of Roy during a quick meetup for fast food burgers last week. Gosh, I think he’s handsome! I’m still pinching myself :)
Please ignore my ugly sun-in-eyes glare!
I broke down and entered Galaxy in Stumptown, for my own ring experience, and because she’s looking better than she did last [...]
The hike to Horse Rock (Very pic heavy)
A few weeks ago an avid geocacher, and (amazing!) artist friend invited us on a hike to Horse Rock in the mid-Willamette valley about 40 miles from our place. We took Galaxy and Spark, plus Lisa brought her dogs Tilly, and Quentin, and the two dogs she was sitting, Radar, and Lilly. LOTS [...]
Not so bad, once you get to playing with it…
For days the adult dogs held their ground against Puppy-Roy… no one played with him! Sparkles is still scared of him (”It has NEEDLE teeth, and is OUT TO GEEET ME!”), but yesterday Galaxy took the plunge, and started playing with poor, lonely Roy. Now, they really have not stopped!
“Stick ‘em up, [...]
Hip hip horray! Plus, a lesson learned.
April 18th we took Galaxy to a local health testing clinic held by a local toy breed club to do her hips, elbows, eyes, heart, and patellas. She passed her eyes, heart, and patella with flying colors, but the vet was unable to get a clear shot of her hips using their film machine [...]
Cardi Dream Come True AND Caught Her Standing Still!
How to make a Cardi happy…
A kidlet I know got bored with her ice cream after we were full. No one else wanted it, but Cee was thrilled to take it for us ;)
Yesterday while stranded, waiting for my wonderful, heroic husband to come rescue us from a local park I actually got some [...]
Galaxy’s big week
Last weekend during the NW Working dog expo I entered Galaxy in the IABCA show in St Helens, Oregon. Cee was the only Cardigan, but won a group 3, and a group 2 over the weekend. It was so fun to get high remarks on her soundness, movement, and breed type. People [...]
