This is the proof of the image that will be put on my x-mas cards.... yes, I decided it's best to let them make those too! LOL.
The only thing they are going to do is soften up the background a little bit so it blends a bit more.

Muffin's Christmas Photo Shoot, Take 2
So, because I have such amazing photography skills... I decided to leave matters to the pros!
This is the proof of the image that will be put on my x-mas cards.... yes, I decided it's best to let them make those too! LOL.

Ever have one of those weeks...
where you wish you never got out of bed.... at all?
...........I just had one. Here's to hoping it's over now.
Although, I still can't decide which is the "worse" part of it.... the fact that my car is destroyed for the fact that I won't be getting my show puppy this summer.... :sigh:

herding was....
AWESOME!!!!!!!
we have another lesson scheduled for a week from this comming sat. The instructor will be at a dog show this comming weekend, so we had to skip a week. :-(
AND!!!! on top of me finding a sport that he's actually into, he was so tired during our CGC/TDI prep course that he sailed through the "other dog" distraction without incident. I must remember to have him chase sheep before his tests.... though I'll also have to buy a case of baby wipes, bc he came out of the herding test covered in sheep pooo!!!!!!! (I guess that's what happens when you're only a few inches off the ground?)
As soon as he saw the sheep, he wanted in. It was SOOOO amazing to see that little light bulb inside his brain turn on. It was also really neat to see how he just knew to keep the group of sheep together. If one split off, he went after them and brought them back to the group without any kind of signal.

Muffin is a....
This is a stolen(but fun!) idea! LOL.
In honour of Friday the 13th.... this is the "wrong breed post!"
I was told by a guy how much he just *loved* my dog's breed after seeing a show all about them on animal planet. He said he never realized just how awesome Basset Hounds were before the show... When I told him, that my dog is actually a pembroke corgi and not a basset hound... he was "oh, well they look SOOOOO similar!"

There was another time, over the summer, when I was camping in PA. I decided to take a trip into Milford and walk around. A woman stopped in her car to ask me if my dog was a Dachshund.... Then she proceded to tell me that she ownes 3 of them!
Dachshund:
While it makes me laugh when someone who isn't into dogs guesses the wrong breed... it makes me sad when someone who owns mulitples (or I've even heard tales of people than saying they BREED the type of dogs they mistook one for!)!

You know you're a dog person when....
you need something dog related and there it is... right in the trunk of your car.
Anyway, I bought a new bike the other day (does the happy dance). So I decided to try it out early.... well I ended up being longer than I planned... and I didn't have time to take Muffin home before leaving. I should also mention that I don't keep a collar on the woods... I'm paranoid that he'll get stuck on a branch or root or something. I do always bring a leash with me, just in case, but it's almost always a slip lead of some kind(so no collar needed).
Anyway, I had agility class last night..... and he had no collar.... but not to worry, I had an extra harness in the back of my car!
Yes, I carry treats, bowls, water, leashes, beds, collars, doggy first-aid stuff, and even cheap slip leads I can give away if I come across someone who has "forgotten" theirs.

Muffin's Christmas Photo Shoot, Take 1
Yes, I think I will be sleeping with one eye open from now on! LOL. I'm just glad that he humored me enough to let me snap these shots.
My plans are to put a Christmas-y pic of him on my holiday cards this year... I'm going to try photoshopping a few of these, but I think I will be attempting another photo shoot in the very near future.
Anyway, on the to Christmas Puppy!
