Dogs
Being that I spend most of my down time with my wife and my dogs and my wife won't let me take pictures of her this is a place for me to dump my images of my dogs throughout the year.
Trinity is 11, Brady is 5 and they go every where together except for the therapy sessions, that's all Trinity because Brady would terrorize the hospitals and libraries that Trinity goes to every month.
Benny is an 8-year-old Bernese Mountain dog that lives in upstate New York. I got to spend a whole day with Benny, I met him nice and early at The Country Store at Jiminy Peak Ski Resort where he is a little bit of a local celebrity and basically runs the store when he's there. We then went back to his beautiful farm where he watched me eat lunch and then we went for a long walk around the countryside. We met some of his neighbors, rolled in the grass and enjoyed the unusually warm weather for this time of year. It was an absolutely wonderful day and I can't wait to see Benny again. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed spending the day with Benny.
From the Goldstock website; For those of you who have never attended, Goldstock is a celebration of our dogs and of rescue. The event was started in 1998 as a get together for members of the Golden@Hobbes e-mail list, and in support of Golden Retriever Rescue. Approximately 65 people and their goldens attended and a few thousand dollars was raised to help rescue. From that beginning, the event has grown to include over 30 rescue groups selling wonderful merchandise; more than 300 people from all over the US, as well as Canada and the UK; and well over 400 very happy dogs. In the 17 years of Goldstock, several hundred thousand dollars has been raised for rescue. You can learn more about Goldstock on their site wwww.goldstockcamp.com and maybe I'll see you there in 2015.
