A little recap, with pics

Hope everybody is enjoying their weekend! Whether at the field, house, or training spot. I'm just kicking back today and found myself reminiscing.

Duke just turned 1 year old! He's 73lbs with lots of muscle. I've had him 6 months and couldn't be happier, check out this recap.

Day 1: happy boy

Thank you very much. He's such a goof, the day he stops being so happy I'll be broken :/

Isn't that pic the greatest? He's so goofy I can't even begin. He'll do the darndest things. One time we were walking around the city and he hopped into a flowerpot that just contained dirt, when passerbys stopped to talk, they were like "how is not everybody stopping to look at a dog in the flower pot?" At that point he just laid in there.

He'll find a little puddle of water on a walk, and just lay in it. So funny

I had to look up the word debonair. I could totally see Thalie being very proud and confident, to act the fool in a puddle or dirt. Good luck with the June contest!
