Berkeley is a morning person — like me. When I am in Boise on a weekend, like yesterday, I go over at 5:45 a.m. so that I am there to take care of her when she wakes up; this gives her parents the gift of sleeping in.

Once her family was up, it was time to hit the road.

As I drove along the Salmon River towards Montana, a Bald Eagle posed for me…

I jumped from Lucky and took photos — note the traffic…

I could leave the door open because my dogs are always secured when traveling — they are never loose in the van or RV.

And now we are home and forced to practice more patience as wait for mid-May, which is when we will know if Sparklers 2.0 will be making a June 16 appearance.

Luckily we have Frantic Training and then the Specialty to keep us busy.

Have a wonderful Easter Sunday.

Show Dog Life in Montana

After tracking yesterday, we had a fun dog walk/swim party. This is Sundance, Suzanne’s boy, enjoying some of the remaining snow..

Sundance easily passed his certification track and we are waiting to hear if he gets a track at the Specialty. Everything crossed.

That melting snow is making for some grand new ponds — hence the swim party! This is Shelby and Sundance, who belong to Suzanne, and Claire with Harper B for Back in the Corner.

We walked down to the Bitterroot River…

This is Harper.

Water is like a magnet to Claire.

Racing back to the car after all that fun adventuring. The Life of Show Dogs when the first priority is actually the dogs and their happiness.

Find Happy Today — it is out there.
