Congrats on your new arrival. Willow is a cutie, Love Love Love the tongue shot.
I'm sure Scout and Willow will be BFFs soon.

RMJ are they close enough where you can spend time with them?

Kian, I was thinking the same thing. It's a 30 minute drive to the breeder, but if I try to get out there at least a couple times a week to visit the babies, that would be better than nothing, right?
They might even know who I am by the time I bring them home.

That would be great RJM and the pictures as the grow!

Ice did soooo good last night I had to share. It's the "handler" that needs to learn the signs. He is off the leash and there are other dogs around.....not to mention the barking dogs across the street and near them. (notice the red house in the one of the pics, we looked at that house to buy last year.)





The Spiral, this one was so fun!

[lynners]

Rally! Tahsis and I practice some of the moves on our own at home, haha.

Good boy, Ice!

[RubyJeansMom]

Ice Bucket!! LOL!!

Here are the Riverfest/Roverfest Pics from yesterday. Thanks to a friend to took these, they are great of Ice with his goofy owner!! You will see the picture of the Unadoptable dog that had me emotional. She was on her last day on earth, what a turn around!

Our littlest member and a natural at agility


Here is my Dottie!!! This is the dog that had me so emotional, I love her. Her owner is telling her story.


She jumped on Ice's crate and everyone clapped!


Don't give me a mike! I think I was announcing the up and coming events here.


His first time runs on the course!








I had to leash him, he flew over the A-frame, I need to slow him down.


Now on to the actual demo!
Ice waving to the crowd


Ice sitting pretty








Ice holding the stay (the tongue just for you Deb!)




Ice waiting for the next command


Ice taking a bow for the crowd (I'm glad she got this!)








Ice singing!

I forgot one......Let's Roll! I choose this term for the command instead of Roll Over to honor the 9/11 comment made just before the plane went down in a field.

WOW!! Good Boy ICE!!!! He looks so beautiful and so happy!!! Kian, you've done such a great job with him!!

The story about Dottie was heartwarming!! What a wonderful little girl

"Let's Roll" brings chills and tears at the same time...what a wonderful choice of words...

[RubyJeansMom]

Yep. everything Vanessa said.

And I love the littlest member, what a cutie!

Kian, there were some amazing tongue shots in the entire batch (which I perused last night on FB). Thank you for posting that special one for me. There is just something about Dogs' tongues that amuses me, and I find endearing.

Ice did a very good job, and by the looks of things, so did you. I did laugh about your own comments regarding the microphone.

The gentleman with the "special rescue" looks a great deal like my friend Biggsie...similar stature and face, including but not limited to, the facial hair. What a sweet story.

[Phyrie]

Ice looks wonderful, Kian!! I think I like the one of him between your legs, looking up at you best! Although he's got some really pretty "sits" going on there! LOL!

[kian]

Thanks for letting me share that!

Deb the man that looks like Biggsie is also very nice and his wife's name is ..... Deb!

[Oliver & Henry's Mum]

Kian, how ironic!!! I'm sure he is a lovely man, with a heart as big as the world.

Speaking of ironies, I was talking to someone yesterday and my sister and I were asking about her children, who are the same ages (roughly) as we are (my siblings and I). She mentioned one of her sons (on whom I always had a secret crush) and it turns out that he is living in the same small City where I used to live, and where my sister now lives, with a woman I knew when Ben was in Soccer!!!!! Talk about a small world!!!!! This woman had a son with the same name as mine, only in those days, Benjamin (my son) was called BENJAMIN, never Ben.

Needless to say, I filled my sister in on all the "gossip" about his now paramour. Hilarious!!!! My "elephant" like memory served me very well yesterday.

Sorry to digress (as usual).

[purdyandi]

Oh, my goodness! I always forget to check this topic!
Kian, Ice looks amazing! He's obviously having so much fun--the look on his face...! How cute that you have to slow him down!
Congratulations to both of you!
