The epic roadtrip with Princess Cheeseface continues. We hit the field on Sunday for group field training, and Mira was great. Just great. I'm so proud of her. She's had minimal real field work, but it's amazing what very strong instincts and a solid obedience foundation can do. Looking forward to running her in tests.
The other thing that made the day great (in addition to perfect weather, great people, paradisal training grounds, and my soul dog at my side) was that virtually all the dogs were Mira's close relatives. Loved having a family reunion with all the dogs working and loving it!
So now to the pictures -- your real reason for clicking this thread...
A bunch of black dogs in motion in harsh sunlight...and I was using a lens I've never used before. So be forgiving!
First up -- the two Baby Boys. These are Mira's half-brothers, from her mum's second litter. Born 2011.
