So fitting and what a deal

We have a new branch of a local pet store near us called Mini Petmart. I've been to their other locations, but this new one is the showcase, if you ask me. They have so much stuff there, including things you can usually find at the dog show, but not at a pet shop...and they don't sell any animals. Gotta love that! Anyway, in my first visit yesterday, I remembered that Savannah's collar has seen far better days. While they had lots of pink things to choose from, cuz you know we've got to make her girlie in some way, when I saw this one, I knew it was perfect for her...

Monkeys. Pink monkeys. Too dang funny! We call her the little monkey sometimes, because she is just so silly sometimes...and she loves to climb. It just seemed oh-so-fitting!

And the deal? Thank goodness for craigslist. We picked up one of those Booster Bath dog grooming tubs like Carolyn has for $100. The woman has another one, but it's missing the drain hose. This one looks like it's never been used. It's been sitting outside under a cover, so will need a bit of a scrub, but otherwise, it's in great shape. Woo hoo!!!

Finally a picture of the babies...new chewies make for cozy couch sitting...

Is it that orange?

You know what I'm asking...and these are adjusted. So, is it????

Win pictures from Umpqua Kennel Club, August 2 & 3, in Roseburg. We're still waiting for the picture from Bandon. The poor photographer was in a car accident with her family just a few days after the show and all were injured pretty badly. I think they'll be okay eventually, but we send them our best!!!

Oops, she did it again

Savannah managed to pick up Winner's Bitch again today, in spite of herself. Emily says she has mommy-itis...I don't have to do what Mommy wants. Every time we'd start on the go around, she'd try to run into me instead of going straight and I had to force her to go to her left. She trotted half way around. She wanted out of the ring, period. In other words, I got told the exact opposite thing by the judge today than I got told at Bandon. The one at Bandon wanted me to speed her up. This one decided she was doing it because I was taking her around too fast, which I know wasn't the case. Frustrating!!! Anybody got any suggestions? On the bright side, she's up to 6 points, whether she deserves them or not! ;)

Savannah gave me a birthday present

Savannah decided to celebrate her birthday in style by winning winner's bitch and best of winners for 1 point at the Umpqua Kennel Club today. That brings her up to 5 points. I have a feeling we'll be major hunting soon. I'm just happy she was a good girl today!
