A Terrier's Dream Day!

Today was 'Lure Course Day' for the Oregon Airedale Terrier Society!

Look how excited I am!

I see the course, I see the pelt, I remember!

We do a bit of mingling first. 

That handsome lad in the front, is my litter brother, Lupe.

He came down from Seattle, with his Wheaten brother, Clancy.

That's our mom in the back, she is always happy to see her boys!

Evan explains to Woody how the Lure Course works.

And, we are off!!

Cousin Cate and I, decide to tag team.

For some reason, I take my leash out there. Maybe if Cate catches it, I can leash that critter up...do you think?

Hey Cate! I got it!!

Penny, the Kerry Blue Terrier knew how to get the job done!!

Clancy the Wheaten, was having the best time! 

Bartley the Border Terrier, could turn on a dime and caught that pelt a couple of times!

Woody looked like a lion on the Serengeti.

The best part was catching that critter and doing the 'Wyatt Rodeo'.

It was my kind of day!!

Thank You Greg and Lynn, for hosting a fun-filled terrier day.

Thank You Ron, for your Lure Course expertise.

Chase it Down!

It is no secret that terriers have a high prey drive.

Lure Coursing is the perfect sport for Airedales!

A furry pelt, races around a track of string. The operator has the ability to speed up the pelt or change direction at anytime.

That furry critter whips around the yard like the REAL deal!

Here is one of my brothers, chasing it down.

This Saturday, I will be revisiting the Lure Course!

This time, I plan on catching it!

Say Yes to Stinky Fish!

  Come closer...I have a secret to tell.

Guess how I make my flowers grow tall....

 

My veggies grow big...

and have flowers as BIG as my head!!

Fish Fertilizer!

(puree of fish parts and fish poop)

What do you mean, I have bad breath?

You don't want my kisses?

Plants fur mom

I'm a lucky dog, my mom is easy to shop for.

If Stanzie and I get her some plants for Mother's Day, she is a happy mama.

How fortunate that we discovered on our college walk yesterday, it was the CCC annual plant sale.

They had lots of really good stuff...some veggies, herbs and flowers for $1.

I say...SHOP SHOP SHOP terrier mama, that is within my budget!

So, she got in a line, about a block long.

We came home and finished planting the veggie garden, made a couple of flower baskets for my Grandmas and all is good with the world!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!

Wyatt and Stanzie

Garden Gone Crazy

Some strange things have been happening in the garden...

Crazy things are popping up all over!

This row of onions that we planted.... Is a row of Onions-Potatoes-Foxglove!

Who did that...squirrels?

Volunteer Garlic 

Last year's 'purple spinach' is popping up in the tater patch!

AND...mom is stuffing Christmas lights into blue wine bottles!

Garden Gone Crazy

The Spiral Stairs

The beachy 'get-a-way' house has some crazy stairs!

If you want to watch a movie...you have to go UP.

I want to watch a movie!!

Going up is EASY!! 

YAY!  Look at ME!  I did it!

Yikes...how am I going to get down?

Here goes...one paw at a time.

Its No thing...I'm an Airedale!!

(They should put one of these on the agility course...I would ROCK!)
