Quick update for your Easter weekend…this beautiful day I took Corona out and cleaned him up. Finally, he is growing in a much healthier-looking summer coat where he had been bald in patches. He is still clinging on to some of the more stubborn long wiry winter coat...

Charmeon is coming along well in her training and is much better about steering. She starts out very forward but runs out of steam quickly as she’s not very fit, but she remains very level-headed, sweet, and easy to work with. She’s a powerful mover and a fun...

We had an emergency call with Dr. Hannah last week when Corona managed to crib a board so much that it broke, and then somehow Lucky managed to gouge himself on the pointed end of the board. He’s fine, but wasn’t too happy about it being touched for a few days...
