Pictures of the Red Heads
A simple task. All I want to do is get a picture of the three red-heads (Rusty, Kodiak, and Cheoah) as they are coming down the trail. So all I have to do is get down the trail in front of them, turn, keep the other three dogs from tripping me with their leashes while…

Guess what we got? Natasha is checking it out: So is Qannik, but he is being shy because Bricey revealed his secrets: I fought the dog food bag and the dog food bag won. *** Sigh *** Ok, let’s go check it out: Yep, we got fresh straw down in the dog lot. Since we…
