RoadTrip!

Who drives over 300 miles for a Havanese play date? Yes, Leslie, Tori, Dasher, Dora, and I packed up and went up to Tracy for an amazing havanese get together! There was every size, color, and anything Havanese you could imagine all packed into one back yard. Steve and Susan hosted this playdate and were amazing enough to offer to let us with our dogs, included my 5 month old puppy stay over!

One thing I was very excited for is Dasher's breeder was coming and bringing Dasher's sister Gracie. When we arrived, Gracie immediately knew who Dasher was and came running over and Dasher was scared out of his mind! He jumped back and hid behind Dora. He was very overwhelmed by this event at first. In fact, he drooled and barely moved! I just decided to let him get a grip and walked around. Then he walked up and smelled the breeder. He went nuts. Drool gone, and just loved seeing Kathy. In fact later in the day when he heard her talking he went running across the yard.

Dora was a bit overwhelmed too. She found her shady spot and watched the event from there. They set up an agility station and Dora made friends with a little girl who loves agility and went thru the course several times. She had the mommy save me look but it is good for her!

That night after a nap (while those without wagging tails went to a great english pub!), the kids played in the house and we all crashed pretty hardcore. The next morning was back on the road.
