It was a strange but wonderful weekend…
Committed to being trial secretary for WWWA’s ASFA trials in Roy, WA, I packed up the RV and headed down to the field on Friday. For the first time in a very long time, I didn’t run any of my own dogs, but it was a wonderful relaxed weekend [...]

I realize I haven’t updated the blog since the last RFF meets in June, so before reporting this weekend’s meet, here is a quick catch-up. We spent the summer at the dog shows, where I’d hoped to finish one or both of Lark’s conformation titles before she is bred this fall. Alas, the closest we [...]

I think it must be getting really boring for me to continue to post after each and every Racing For Fun meet about the wonderful time I had, and in any event there just aren’t enough superlatives in the dictionary. But I just can’t help it. There just isn’t a better group of people in [...]

I just received word from proud owner Sue McNeill that Fulani finished her LCM, and is now FC Serendipity Peregrine of GP, LCX, LCM, SR, OTR.
I am so proud of this great little runner, and even more grateful to Sue for giving Fulani (and half-sister Spice) such a great home, for keeping her fit, conditioned [...]

The dogs saw the muzzles and general mayhem ensued as they all tried, simultaneously, to stuff their faces [...]

I’ve been spending some time here and there over the last few weeks updating the website’s style after switching to the Thesis theme. You’ve probably noticed some changes to the navigation (drop-down menus and breadcrumbs), changes to the links in the right column, among others. Stay tuned for more as time permits…
Today, instead of going [...]

We’re home safe and sound from a long trip out to southern Idaho for the SISFA ASFA trials, where I went to run some whippets and judge some other breeds. Lark won the open stake on Saturday, FINALLY earning her first placement and finishing her ASFA field championship! I was starting to wonder if she [...]

We spent a fun weekend at WWWA’s ASFA trials in Roy, WA. Ellie won the open stake on Sunday to finish her field championship! I’m so pleased for her proud owner Jody Faldborg!
Lark added not just one, but TWO more second placements to her bloated collection and STILL just needs a first to finish her [...]
