Congratulations to Rylee and his 'family'. Very good job!

Sunday as Rylee and I walked into the show building I carefully watched Rylee and the other dogs. Rylee was behaving really well but I continued to be careful. Suddenly in front of us there was a huge black and white male Great Dane. As it stood there in front of us I tried to steer Rylee to the side of the monster dog but Rylee seemed transfixed on the - ah shall we say his "low hanging fruit." Rylee reached to have a sniff as I pulled him back. The dog mountain turned toward us as I was assuring Rylee he really didn't want to tangle with this big boy. The big boy boomed out a sound that made Rylee agree and we gave him a very wide birth.  Happy Wednesday.

Well it has been a wild ride! Three day event this past weekend for Rylee - he did great! He won his breed all weekend and won two Group firsts and one second. He would have done three Group firsts had he settled better on Saturday. He was excited Jojo and hubby came along to the show with us that day. All in all I really proud of him as I also saw that our lessons with Matt are helping. I was able to walk Rylee into the show all three days without him trying to eat the other dogs that "dare" to look my way when we walked by them. I still had to hide as he constantly looked for me if I was in the building. Yesterday I spent the day at our local polling station working from 8:00am until after 11:00pm. When I got home Rylee was SOOO happy to see me. Happy Tuesday. 

Monday April 28th is election day in Canada. I am working as a Return Officer at my local polling station. Rylee did really well and I will tell you all about it Tuesday as I am freezing the garden until then. Canadians please get out and vote.

Congratulations to Rylee for his 2nd place. Good luck today!

Oh Good Boy Rylee 🍄💦😁🐶

Loved your story about the doggy baths! Too cute! I’m from Newcastle, too, but in Washington, USA. Have a good day!

Yesterday Rylee and Jojo had a bath. We trekked over to our local Pet Smart and proceeded with the bathing process. There are two bath stations so hubby and I can bath both at the same time. I unhooked Rylees' lead and clipped him to the wall lead in the tub. I lathered up the scrubby brush I had brought to wash him and proceeded to wet him and lather him up. Hubby had started to wet and lather Jojo when she jumped out of the wash station. He had removed her collar thinking it shouldn't get wet. I gave it to him to put on her and we go back to business.  There was a new hose in the wash station on my side and I proceeded to soak myself as the hose was so stiff. All in all they love the bath process and we finished and got them home after a final stop. Happy Thursday.

Rylee still tries to get more treats by letting me know he wants more. He does this by "snuffing" in my lap. He blows air out of his nose - and then gazes up at me imploring me to give him "just one more." I looked at him and snuffed back - he snuffed back at me - I returned - so we sat here snuffing at each other. I'm not sure it he thought I was playing a game with him (I was) but we snuffed back and forth for a few minutes then I told him we were done and to lay down. I had run out of "snuff". Oh and best of all today is bath day!  Happy Wednesday
