This past weekend we attended our first outdoor NADAC trial and overall it was great. I am very very pleased with how well Zora ran, and how happy she was. But once again this group, same as the more local…
A Walk in the Woods
I love tromping around in the woods. Any time of year. In the fall leaves, in the winter snow, in the summer bugs (ok my least favorite to be quite honest), in the spring mud. It’s all good and beats…
X-Hoopers
There has been a lot of talk lately on the NADAC forum about X-Hoopers. I’ve been wanting to play it since I first heard of it but none of the local trials we had been too had offered it and…

Hirgh Schnoosh
What the heck is that sound? I softly chuckle. Oh, it’s a zonked tired corgi snoring into the door. Hirgh schnooosh. Hirgh schnooosh. Snort. Hirgh schnooosh. I think it’s safe to say this morning’s walk was a success. 2 tired,…
