Fall staycation

Months ago, before Lindsay even knew she was moving to Florida we signed up for the Dogwood Canyon 25k trail run. A few weeks agor the time had finally arrived! Lindsay drove 800 miles in one day with Kash and her dog to spend the weekend here so we can have some fun and of course  do the run!

We enjoyed the day before at top of the rock. It was chilly, but fun. 

Then came the big race! Definitely the hardest and longest race I’ve done. There were several monster hills, 18 water crossings, and over 2000 feet elevation gain. But I finished in my goal range with a time of 3:17. 




The next day we enjoyed the winery 

Seeing the trucks

And going to the aquarium 

Then it was time for ever to go back home and back to work. And after 3-4 days we weren’t limping anymore 😂😂

Fall fun

Some nice puppy pics 

Flint is still looking for a home. We do have an app in process that may work. 

Addies is getting picked up after thanksgiving. 

Nosework and agility

Shortly after champs we traveled to Oklahoma to give our NW2 a shot. Even though we hadn’t been practicing. But, Epic blew me away again. He rocked it. We picked up two placements as well first overall! I think he’s tired of me saying Legend was better than him lol. Now we get to spend the winter doing some training to prepare for NW3. 

The next weekend we went to agility. Again with no practice since we have been so busy. But we had a great time getting some Qs and also winning a prize in the costume contest. I had a Halloween shirt that said only here for the boos and epic was my booze!

The next weekend we squeezed in a day of AKC and he picked up a first and second in a big class of advanced interiors. And now we are done trialing for the year! Time to relax a bit and then regroup.
