Merry Christmas !!!

From our family to yours.....


MERRY CHRISTMAS !!

An Indian Summer Day in December

Oh boy, a sunny mild December day---time to get out and play some ball!

OK Mom, I'm ready! Mom......?

How about both Lady and I with our balls? Bet you can't resist that one!

Mom was so nice to us, she played ball with us 3 times before lunch time. Thanks Mom!

SNOW!!

Oh boy! I remember this stuff---it's SNOW!

Yup, tastes just like I remember it. Nice and cold too. And plenty enough to play in!

And this year I have Lady to share it with. But of course since I'm bigger, I get the snowballs that dad throws first. Move over please, Miss Lady.

Yahoooo, this is really fun.

Whatcha want to do next Lady? How about a game of chase?

Yessir, we are lovin' this!

Hope we have lots of this beautiful snow this year.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Mr. Wolf and his little sister Lady (and our family) want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!!

As we prepare for this holiday season, we give thanks for all of God's blessings in our lives!

Enjoying Fall

Summer's gone, and Wolf has been enjoying the beautiful Fall weather.

Yesterday he got to chase a woodchuck up a tree (yes, they can climb trees---especially with a 110 lb. dog after them!)

It's a good thing :)

ISSDC NE Fall Shiloh Specialty

Friday we all went up to New York to go to our club's NE Specialty Show----it was so much fun! They had it in a big State Park.

Mom took me in the ring, the judge was very nice and gave me a blue ribbon and a rosette to take home.

Lady watched while I did my best to make mom proud.

Mom insisted on taking this picture of my ribbons and rosettes ---I had nothing to do with this--as you can see I was fast asleep.

There were lots of fun things to do besides just Conformation---Rally-O, Shiloh games, Temperament Tests, a howling contest, and oh yeah---I earned my Therapy Dog International (TDI)! This resulted in both mom & dad wearing huge smiles the rest of the trip. And getting to sleep on the motel bed was a real treat!

Little sister Lady also went in for the 3-6 month puppy class. She came away with 2 second place ribbons---not bad for a newbie.

Here she is resting after her wins.

I really enjoyed seeing all my Shiloh buddies and meeting new ones. Lady and I slept all the way back home, zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Looking forward to the next event----Herding Trials this weekend---Can't wait to cheer all my fellow Shiloh friends on!

This is Okay!

I love playing on my back porch, chewing my bone and watching mom while she reads or enjoys the day.



Mom plays with me of course, but she has other things to do besides give me attention 24/7. But now....now that Lady is here, I have someone to play with all the time!

Of course she does bite me, take my bone away and pester me when I don't feel like playing....

.....but it IS fun to be chased, admired and adored by another Shiloh.

Mom says Lady looks up to me and wants to follow in my footsteps.

And, you gotta admit, she is pretty cute, eh?

Wolf gets a little "sister"

Wolf would like to introduce his new "sister"----My Lady Lemon of Crossroad (Lady). She'll be 5 months old in a few days, and she is a silver and cream sable Shiloh Shepherd. Also, she is a plush coat, while Wolf is a smooth coat. She is out of the Kisla/Odin 09 litter. Lady and Wolf seemed to hit it off right away, they started playing within seconds of meeting one another.


At first Wolf probably thought that she would be going back where she came from, but now he realizes she's here to stay.

Even though she takes his bones, his toys, his car seat and even his bed, he has accepted her with much patience and lots of play time!

They like doing things together, and Wolf enjoys showing Lady how to be a good Shiloh citizen.

It looks like they will be close friends :)

This has been a very exciting time for all of us!

Even more fun stuff coming!

I just found out that more fun is in store for us with our Shiloh friends.....

...... things like 2 picnics (where we get to run free together and play and chase one another to our hearts content, and have games and eat lots of goodies)

........and the Herding Trial (look out you silly woolies!)

.... and even a big dog show in New York, where we get to be in a motel again and watch all the Shilohs strut their stuff!

Wow, I'll have a lot to report on in the next couple months. Stay tuned :)

Buzzards!

Something new came into my yard the other day----buzzards!

There were 3 of them, and boy were they big! Mom sent me out after them and it was so much fun. They wait a long time before they fly off, so I got a real good look at them.

I think I'll wait around and see if mom needs me to chase any more of them away.
