Comin' At Ya!

Just a few more pictures from our walk yesterday. Notice how much dirtier the toy is now that my girls have gotten a hold of it? I bet Kort wouldn't even touch it now!

Lacey and Jackie play quite a bit at home these days but only if I can keep Coulee out of it. Generally this isn't a problem, because Coulee always picks fetch over wrestling.

One of Lacey's favorite games is stealing Coulee's toy. Not because she wants to play with it, but just because she knows Coulee wants it.

And just one more example of the Amazing Lacey - the world's first flying dog.

Off Leash Fun

I took Jackie on an off-leash walk today - our first together. I didn't think she'd be a problem as she is pretty much a velcro dog. My biggest worry was that she wouldn't get far enough away from me for a photo!

She was a little nervous at first (at least that is what I think 3 poops in 3 minutes indicates!) but she quickly decided to venture from my side. She alternated between running with the girls and sticking close beside me.

As usual, my girls had a blast.

It doesn't look like Lacey spent much time actually touching the ground!

What's a girl to do when left alone with a funky candle and a camera?

The big herd

I've never seen such a big herd of pronghorn. We saw this group on the way home yesterday. Click to see full size.

Writing on Stone

Jolene and I ventured out to Writing on Stone today. She moved here more than a year ago and had still never been there. I hope the scenery blew her away - it is amazing there.

We took the dogs down the Hoodoo Trail and they had a great time at the end racing around near the river (don't tell anyone they were off leash!) There was only one other group of people there when we were so the park was pretty quiet.

Tate wouldn't stop staring and barking at my pocket that had food until I finally gave him one.

Kort and Lacey enjoy tugging on a stick.

Tate got the zoomies, and Jolene couldn't stop laughing.

Lacey isn't normally a big fan of toys but she was sure happy to have the little Raspberry.  She paraded it around for quite some time - much to Coulee's dismay.
Me and the girls.
Just the girls

Jackie (our foster dog with the Prairie Dog Canine Rescue) also got to come along for the ride. She didn't come on our long walk through the hoodoos - I didn't think I could handle 3 - but she did get to come up to the visitor centre with us.

Ummm. Yeah. Apparently sitting on picnic tables is what you do when you are a stray. I probably kicked her off a dozen times and she just kept hopping back up. Thankfully she doesn't do this on my kitchen table!
