Merry Christmas, 2006!
This has been a busy year for our kennel. We had excellent training and while we hoped for two races, because of an accident in our racing family, we had just one race. But it's not all about racing for us, anyway. We enjoy training and running with the dogs, giving them great days. Any racing is a plus. This year we are looking at, possibly, two races again. (Yes, I know I said, no more races, last year... ha ha!)

This fall has been challenging, mostly with weather and dog health related issues. Several dogs are still recovering from surgery,illness, which requires extra attention and trails have been either too slippery or muddy (or full of hunters) for safe ATV training. But we did get some good miles prior to deer hunting. Now the dogs are all READY for some action again! Now we need some more people! as well.
This timeout is for Christmas and then we HOPE to be back to 'normal'. This morning , after a DELUGE of rain like I've never seen before, yesterday, (lakes in pens), there is a snow cover and it's still snowing. Of course, that means I get to make trails and shovel out pens in addition to all that must be accomplished on the day before Christmas Eve , ho ho! I don't think the temp is cold enough for the 'lakes' in pens to be frozen, so we will have a wet day, as well.
Wishing for all, a Merry Christmas! and lots of good days for dogs and people , alike, in 2007!
Wondering if weather will come back to 'earth' this year?
