Flyball Class was Awesome!

Raider loved flyball and do did I. I can hardly wait for the next class. He wasn't used to the jumps but we just walked him through them.. I will get a jump or two built so he gets used to them. He did great with targeting and by the end of class was using both paws!!
The dogs in the class come in all sizes..

Little ones

A puppy!

A little one Raider was terrified of..

A very shy one...

These ones were waiting for the next class while their Moms helped out with our class. I was going to stay and watch but it was too hot to leave Raider in the car, but it will be cooling off so I will get a chance soon.

Picture of Raider

My awesome son in law put these two pictures together for me using Photoshop....

Wish I could do this but when I have a very talented graphic artist for a son in law why bother hehe

Hurricane Earl

We are preparing for Hurricane Earl which is supposed to begin hitting us in about 15hrs.. or 9am atlantic time tomorrow. Wish us luck...

Dock Diving

Here are a few pictures of Chauncy Dock diving today.. with Adina throwing the ball. They all love to dive off the dock but the pictures of the others did not turn out.. More tomorrow I hope. I would love to get a few pictures of Raider Dock Diving for the Addison Dogs Calendar.

There's the ball!

That one's mine!

I beat them to it this time..

He has got good form here ...

At The Beach

My friend Adina is finally visiting from Oregon. I went to visit her last year and had an amazing time, so now I am showing her our home.. We have been eating some wonderful seafood, doing lots of fun things. Yesterday we went tidal bore rafting and it was a blast.. Emma joined us and i think she still has a smile on her face..
today we went to Risser's beach and took Raider.. he had a great time and here are few pictures to prove it..

hmmm I wonder if this might be a Addison Dogs calendar picture this year...

He swam and chased a ball for hours.. Addison's does not stop him for a second.

Raider and Adina.

Throw the ball will ya!

The Girls

Ang and Steven have gone to England and France and the girls are staying with us. They ae having a great time. The dogs all think that Aselin is a gift, they follow her around all day hoping she will A. either drop whatever she is eating or B. feed them whatever she is eating.. She does plenty of both and gets quite a kick out of it.

Aselin having her first whole peach at the beach, she loved it and the mess got washed off easily in the ocean..

Aselin has decided that Caley is her favorite and her best friend. She goes around now and kisses all the dogs noses while they are sleeping.

I adore this picture, Emma and Aselin at Hirtles beach..

Wonderful Fall Day with the Furkids.

Caley is looking pretty good here. She is really active for a 10 yr old but has started to slow down and put on weight this last yr.. almost 10lbs.. So in for a checkup and blood work.. it was all perfect. So we decided to try metacam to see if that would help. It has made a big difference, she is like a puppy again.. She must have some achy joints.. So we need to get the extra weight off and hopefully that will help too. It kind of snuck up on us.

Raider as always checking stuff out to see if it's edible.. He would not want to miss something.

Raider watching a deer, and deciding if he is going to hold his stay or give chase.. He held it..

It's my stuffy and no one can have it.. Chauncy was even worried Mom was going to take it, I kept telling him I have my own.

I know the deer went this way..

The END

Getting hit Now..

Ok it's pretty windy and very wet now.. The picture is not great but my camera was in a bag.. The wind was driving the rain so hard I could barely keep my eyes open. The water is over the rocks here and I have never seen that before, about 4 feet above the high tide mark. I am so glad we still have power when many do not.
