Sometimes I take pictures of them. The sun was setting so Ned was really squinty in a lot of these DSC_0284 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_0290 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_0294 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_0330 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_0343 by...

Quinn currently has a beautiful tag collar from BraidARoo. It's probably over 2 years old now and while still in great shape, I think it's stretched a bit because it seems to really be hanging on her. I also wouldn't mind something a tiny bit thicker, just in case I do need to grab her collar...

Lots of pictures! They are so bad LOL, my first time using a manual focus lens + busy dogs =/= success. First, they opened the presents my mom and I bought them Tortured DSC_1578 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr A dapper gentleman DSC_1589 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr Present...

It's true! I have dogs. And a camera. And sometimes they get together. (This post will be pretty photo heavy! All are SOOTC because I need new editing software, sigh) DSC_1338 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_1346 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_1348 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr...

I got a quote on special ordering a Precision Pet soft crate from my work, and long story short, it is WAY more than I thought it would be, even with my staff discount. I'm okay paying it if it's a great quality crate, but I haven't heard anything about them (I just knew it was a brand we could...

Apologizing in advance for the crappy pictures - I was running on empty after getting home with Ned at 3am that morning! He is impossible to take pictures of because he is such a good puppy - doesn't ever want to be any more than a foot or two away from you. Checking out duckies at our...

So Ned will be flying home on the 3rd! We are very excited and a little nervous - we've never imported a puppy before. Does anyone have any puppy-related recommendations or advice? Product recommendations, training tips, book recommendations, things not to do, things you wish you had taught...

Some pictures of Quinny on her birthday (last Thursday). We had an excellent day herding sheep (I was seriously off my game, Quinn was great despite me) and eating ice cream, and of course being spoiled (: I got her the Hurtta harness in the pictures, as well as a beautiful Bowser bed that I...

This summer has been so wet, and now Quinn's feet are crazy soft. We live on a farm so she doesn't get walked on a sidewalk or anything - 99% of the time she's on grass or dirt trails. I feel so badly for her - the last three times we've gone herding (sandy footing - so, abrasive at high speeds)...

If all goes well, in about a month we'll be picking this little guy up at the airport. He will be my mom's new best friend and sidekick. We had a few disappointments/set backs this year but ultimately I think everything has happened for a reason! Can't wait to get to know him. :)

It's been so long, here are some pictures from last weekend to refresh your memories (: First, a cool visitor I found in the hay. Thankfully Quinn didn't notice. DSC_0412 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_0414 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_0419 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr...

Because of some issues Quinn had as a puppy has always either had a little bit of SA or had the potential. She's recently started displaying some pretty bad (at least to me) SA though. When Quinn was a puppy I did start with crating her - the crate was always a positive experience (never...

Some overdue Quinn pictures! Here you go, Linds ;) All of these are SOTC - not because I like them lol, I am just without a photo editing program. So I apologize for darkness/ickiness! DSC_1141 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_1144 by Charlotte_L, on Flickr DSC_0003 by...

I did post these on FB awhile back but I thought these were pretty illustrative of two types of ES, so I thought I'd cross post them on Chaz! This is Quinn and her buddy Sookie. I "met" Sookie's owner through facebook a couple of years ago but this spring I started with her herding...

Quinn has always been on Acana Grainfree (usually Ranchlands or Pacifica) and done very well and I wouldn't normally switch her. However, my work has recently started carrying dog food which means that I will be getting a very good deal (I will be cutting my dog food costs in half). I feel like...

Quinn just came into heat and while she tries to keep herself clean she is bleeding a lot. I bought her diapers from a pet store in town but they're awful - they fit her terribly. Even adjusted as far up on her back as they go, after only a few minutes they've slid back on her hips and are...

Looking to maybe start Quinn on probiotics as I've heard they can be helpful for ear infections, which I've been battling. She also has seasonal allergies so I'm wondering if it could help with that. Anyone have any brand recommendations? We carry Omega Alpha Probiotic 8 Plus at my work so...

I've never made one of these before! This is so exciting. So I am 99.5% sure that my next dog will be a male English Shepherd, and I could very well stop there, but I've decided that if I were to get a third dog it would be something smaller and easier going as a nice offset to Quinn and...

Here's some Quinn for you! I've been seriously unmotivated to take pictures lately, don't know what's up. Quinn recently has started on sheep though so I got some pictures of her first time and my mom took some pictures of her in the dandelions last week, so here we go! She will be two...
