Couch Potatoes

After an exhausting afternoon of playing with the pet sitter while I was at work and wrestling with each other when I got home, Tess and Jazz take a few minutes to relax on the couch. Rough life, huh?

USDAA Agility

Tess had a great weekend at USDAA agility. She earned her Performance I Gamblers and Performance I Snooker titles, as well as placements and qualifying scores in Performance II Jumpers and Performance I Pairs. Tess also had a successful first try at NADAC agility last weekend, with qualifying scores in Jumpers, Chances, and Regular. It's been a fun couple of weekends shared with friends, both human and canine!

Happy 4th of July!

Rev Up and Roll

Tess and Jazz had fun at an agility demo today at an event called Rev Up and Roll at South Park. Both girls did great with the outdoor agility amidst many people, cars, and even a small train! Jazz was an excellent ambassador for liver-spotted Dalmatians, as many people had never seen one before and admired our little brown Dal.

Doggie "Grandmas"

The Greater Pittsburgh Dalmatian Club held its specialty show today, where the breeders of both our girls were showing their awesome Dals. On the left is "Grandma Joni," with Tess (Starwood Dalmatians). On the right is "Grandma LaDonna," with Jazz (Kingdom Dalmatians). It was fun to visit with these ladies who brought our wonderful spotted companions into the world!

Monkey Business

At the agility trial this weekend, we bought a large stuffed monkey toy. Athough it was originally intended for Tess as a reward for her teeter performance, Jazz has adopted this toy as her own!

Therapy Dogs

Peet and Jazz

Jazz and her brother Peet joined our breeder and her adorable grandson for a pet therapy visit today. The puppies were very well behaved and the residents enjoyed seeing them. We're looking forward to visiting again soon!
