Bark for Life walk

Jillian and I were the top fund raisers at the event today! Got a cute gift bag, Petco gift card, bandana and T shirt... Best snap of her with bag - she had her eyes closed. It was quite hot after the walk. Picture of her in front of our Dog Scout info table.

Sunday visit to Cedarwoods Kennels

I took the girlz back to their original home for a visit and family photos. Rissa's grand daughter Lily had a litter with Timber's son Ivan. Friend Colleen was able to come to Bradford, Maine and take some pictures. Here's a few snaps I took and will have more once Colleen edits her snaps! We had wanted to get a 4 generation picture on Rissa's side - unfortunately her daughter died 2 days before we visited (complications of Lyme disease). The girlz got to swim and run around the grounds at the kennel.

Bark for Life

We will be walking in the Bark for Life jaunt on August 27th. This is for the American Cancer Society and it is the first Bark event for them in Maine. Nice it happens right here on MDI!

August 5th

A group of us that have READer dogs went to Swan's Island to do a program for the kids as a celebration of opening their new library after fire destroyed it 3 years ago. Jillian did fab on the ferry and with all the kids. She is so sweet and everyone loves her soft ears.

therapy ball

Rissa and the others have started a pet therapy ball exercise program to help keep their core and leg muscles strong as they age.
