Best of Cute

My favourite show couple, Jordyn and Stanley.

Jordyn's honey sent me some more photos of Jordyn showing Stanley in Junior Handling. I asked how Jordyn feels about showing in Juniors now that she's been in the "big" classes and apparently she still enjoys it because the judges talk to her and tell her how well she's handling the dog.

In this photo I thought she dropped something but it turns out it was intentional. She picked out this cow-dog toy for Stanley and tucks it in her blouse. She has taught him to fetch and he's crazy for his cow-dog toy so she uses that to her advantage in the ring.

Jordyn's signature is her flower and feather hairpieces and honey tells me she's spent a small fortune on them but the one below is special, honey made it herself.

More Winter Boxers

Here are some more photos of the snow dogs that their "mom" sent me last week.

*****

The first picture is Fenway lounging on the deck last week, in the sun. The rest are the rude awakening that awaited them this morning. April is a winter month. 30º with a cold sun forecast for this afternoon.

Beach Boxer

I have done a bad thing. I stole these pictures, but I'm hoping the owner won't mind. This is how the Mr and I knew we had the right real estate agent, this is his girlie Boxer.

Foster Sneak

I have posted before about how Brittney likes to steal the Brindle's toys. In fact she has a bit of a following as people often ask me what she has stolen lately. The other day she took the lizard, which is almost as big as she is and much longer, from right in front of us. The Brindle just stood there wagging his tail.

I was debating what photos to use today and really, I think this one stands alone. I had an early appointment and returned to this, thinking the Mr had been fooling around with her I asked him what happened. He says she must have done it while he was in the shower.

Earlier this morning there was the large navy bed, the blue rubber bone and Sally the Camel. She has added two of the Brindle's beds, his purple fleece and his sheepskin, the lizard, both hedgehogs, teddy bear, flying monkey, puppy and lambiekins.

Surviving the Snow

A bit ago I shared some photos of some Boxers working hard at staying warm. Well here are some more of the same gang when they brave the great outdoors.

The dog yard after one of the snow storms.

Rose inviting someone to play.

Fenway probably waiting for Rose to jump.

Sam checking the snow.

Minnie by the remaining woodpile which is now about half gone.

The last picture is where they all seem to gravitate to after an outing. The white dog with patches is my foster.  Nice dog. The little dog in the corner by the humidifier doesn't have a name.

Boxers and Brewskis

Yesterday Florida Boxer Rescue had a fund raising event at Hurricane Grill in Sarasota. The best part other the raising money? The beastie's were welcome!

Needless to say wee Brittney had to attend and show herself off. She was a star yesterday, so very brave. We were well prepared to leave early if it was too much for her but she lasted the whole afternoon and seemed to have a fun time. She even demonstrated her sneak skills by thieving some ice cubes from one of the other Boxers.

Maybe the best part though was near the start when she pulled my arm to get to the big white Boxer that was arriving. No idea why but she did like him. She also spent some time leaning on a big brindle guy but she may have been missing Max who stayed home yesterday.

I'm not going to try to identify the dogs I took photos of but please, enjoy.

Foster Dogs - Brittney

Brittney checking in from Florida Boxer Rescue. Things have been going very well for me in my foster home. My foster mama says I'm putting on some weight, especially muscle, and turning into quite the big strong girl.

I've got my own little exercise program you see. When my foster brother isn't paying attention I move his toys to the backyard. Big galoot like him, you have to keep him guessing.

I do like the yard here, there's lots to do. Sometimes I play hide and seek through the bush and laugh at everyone.

Sometimes I lounge around which is a huge step for a girl that was afraid of the outdoors just a few months ago. I've even been know to roll around in the dust, just for fun. Mostly though I like to run and just sniff everything, it's the most fun.

The biggest thing is I'm hoping for my own furever home soon. Maybe it's with you? If you think it might be please contact the nice people at www.flbr.org.
