The Dead Fish

Petey ran along the shore with his nose in the air, and looking out in the lake. He jumped in the water and swam out a bit and finds a very old ripe dead fish! He proceeds to swim into shore and gulp the rotten disgusting fish down in two bites....ugh. Petey's form of Sushi!

Most hikes Petey never misses an opportunity to jump in the water and cool down. I am grateful we live where there is lots of water. He enjoys this part of his outings, and I never have to bathe him. Swimming daily is a win win situation.

So hard to get good pictures of the Boyz hiking. They are always in constant motion, running and enjoying every moment they are outside in Nature. I never tire of watching them run and track all the great scents they find.

Hike to AT

Its been quite a few months since I hike up to the top of the park to see the view of Greenwood Lake. I have been afraid to have Petey hike too far during the warm weather. I'm glad that we went. He seemed to have a blast, and it was the first time Monty had been up there with us. Gorgeous Day out temps only in the 60s. Perfect hiking weather.

Party Boyz

We threw our oldest son a college graduation party. We rented a tent, cooked gormet food, hired a couple of waitress's and had a blast. 75 people attended, including about 20 of our sons friends from college. They all spent the night. Both of my dogs were outstanding, they acted like true ambassadors for the breed. Petey has helped everyone he has ever met view Dobermans differently then they all remember. His temperament is sounder then any other dog I've spent time with. I love him deeply.

Tug the mellow way!

Boyz were playing tug, Petey laid down, Monty soon followed, and BOTH fell fast asleep. Silly boyz!

Hiking Buddies!

They are too cute together! I'm loving having two boyz!

Cardiologist Visit 8/11/10

Petey had his visit with the Cardiologist. According to his Echo, his disease is progressing quite quickly. He was now put on Pimobenden. His Holter came back good, less then 30 total VPCs all singles. We don't have to go back to the Doctor for six months. I'm happy that although the disease is now on the other side of his heart, over all the heart is handling the changes very well.

Lake George Vacation

We rented a gorgeous home in Lake George for a week. The dogs were able to come too. I had a nice time, we found a beautiful nature area for hiking. Petey had lots of fun.
