It's such a very small world

I just got a call from the "Chloe's" - Ch KinLoch's Homer in the Gloamin' JE - mom Linda. She was setting up a time to bring her by on Wednesday to groom for the Specialty.
She told me the craziest story - she just met the owner's of "Ginny," an "Oliver" daughter that lives two blocks from where "Chloe's" dad works, Providence Hospital. Linda had left her wallet, keys and phone on the back of her vehicle at home - in SW Portland up on Council Crest. Chuck took her car to work and she got a call from Becky and her daughter Maddie who had found Linda's wallet on the street. As they were looking to see who it belonged to they noticed that her last name was Cairns. So when they called they made mention that they had a Cairn. Linda said that she did too. They asked where Linda got their Cairn and Linda said Vicki. Becky said that they had an "Oliver" daughter. Linda met with Maddie and Becky and brought "Chloe" to meet them.
Linda eventually found her cell phone and keys still on the bumper of the car in the parking lot!!

Born on May 15. I can't believe I haven't posted any pictures! We bred Hattie to Goren (Sully's dad). It is all boys and full of energy!

Single Double Stack

Oh my gosh. Check this out. Bill Wolfe built a crate dolly for a single crate or stacked double crates. Put a table and arm on top and you are set!



Thanks Bill! It is so cool. I am excited to use it in California.

National Weather Svc issues flood warning for Coeur d'Alene

Vicki and I arrived yesterday afternoon. We had a nice trip, stopped a few times for us to potty, once for the dogs to potty. We stopped at a Chocolate factory outside Tri-Cities... what an evil, evil place. Delicious but evil. When we arrived it was nice. We got our ex pens set up by Val, Dena and Casey's set up. Got the shared grooming (outside) set up and had dinner with Val and Dena. Then over to Dawn's motorhome, our overnight accommodations. Dawn is a wonderful hostess and has a great motorhome. We slept well, had a nice breakfast and espresso then off to the grooming area and ring.

Up this morning to rain... big time rain. It actually started about 3am. Ring time was 11:05 after 10 Norwich Terriers, oh, wait... was there 11? After all was said in done, I l got dumped but... ya win some, you loose some. More rain, and more rain... it has seldom let up all day and when it did we would grab dogs and try to get them to potty. Life at a dog show... in the rain.

Here we sit, 8:15pm at the fairgrounds, in the pouring rain. We've had a wonderful dinner, thanks to Val, and walked dogs in between downpours... And we mean downpours!! Puddles have formed in the grass, short legged dogs beware! Do you know what 6 women stuck in motorhomes do when it's raining out, do ya?
