I picked Monty up on Sunday June 24, 2007 at the Quabbin Reservoir. Little did Lisa and I know, that no dogs allowed ANYWHERE in the park! (nothing on their web site said that!) Bummer. So we picked up Monty, gave Destiny to Holly and Leonard and started to drive the 1.5hr back home. I warned Monty, we drive a lot in this house, hope you're use to travel! He just looked at me and took a nap in the backseat of the truck (he's too big to fit in my vari kennel!) Here are some photos of what we did from 10am-7pm on Monty's 1st Day in Massachusetts. Illegal photos at Quabbin (and yes we did get a stern talking to from some employee there), and then finally a romp in the Halifax Bog with Niche and Clara as well as my sister, Kareena, Lisa and me. Guess what, he even swims!! Think I can teach him to get a duck?! Or maybe a Chukkar?

Monty & his new Flat-Coat friend Niche

Niche, Katrin and Monty (the long line was for safety as we were out on a multi acre nature preserve bog in Halifax. I don't really think he needed it!)

So you think he likes me??

Getting a COOKIE!!!!

Just having fun! Gotta love that tail!!

Watching Niche play in the water. What is that flat-coat?! Nuts!? You betcha!

Monty swimming all on his own! That's Niche in the background also swimming his heart out. Silly dog will go for rocks then spend a 1/2 an hour looking for them. Sorry, Niche, they sunk!

One slightly damp Corgi!
