Sue making friends at the Bark for a Cure Cancer Walk

On Saturday morning, Sue and I hosted a booth at the Bellevue, Nebraska Bark for a Cure Cancer Walk.  It was nice to meet and visit with other local dog enthusiasts.  Sue did a great job meeting and greeting.  The Great Plains Pointer Rescue http://www.greatpointers.org/ also had a booth and they occasionally come across local Wirehaired Pointing Griffons in need of assistance.  In the future, I will be posting any available griff rescues from them and work to spread the word in Griffondom.

Deborah and Pete out in Nevada sent some great pictures of Whiskey getting ready for his NAVHDA natural ability test.  Whiskey is from last year’s “A” litter and recently turned one year old.  He has a new baby “brother”, a lab puppy by the name of “Ruger”.  I’m sure they’re having fun getting to know each other.

Handsome one-year old Whiskey!

"I got it, Dad!"

"Woo hoo!!!!"

Many thanks to Pete and Deborah for the photos and the update on how Whiskey is progressing!

While we’re talking progress, BB is doing fabulous at 11 weeks.  I took her out for her first hour-long hike late last week and she kept up with the big dogs.  No whining, fussing or laying down at all.  She’s getting pretty leggy too!

Charles is taking some time away from work coming up and the kids are out of school for the summer starting on Wednesday, so I’m sure we’ll cook up some good dog adventures.  Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend!
