Scent Work success is a perfect way to describe our AKC Scent Work Trial on the 10th and 11th of this month. We traveled to Sioux Falls, SD for the trial, and stayed at a fabulous La Quinta! It was so nice we were a bit sad we only were going to spend two nights there! [Read more…]
I Earned My NW2 Title On My First Try!
I’m excited to tell everyone that I earned my NW2 Title on the first try on November 3rd!

A Dog Sports Road Trip – Part 1 De Land, IL
Last Friday, Mom and my sisters headed out on a 1200 mile, 3 day, dog sports road trip. The first destination was De Land, IL for a nose work trial. Bailie was entered in another NW3 trial. The drive to De Land took about eight hours including a few short stops for fun, food, and going potty. Originally, they had planned to stop at Montrose Dog Beach because they loved it so much last year, but with Madison in heat, and Bailie not able to run wild, they had to cancel that part of the plans.
