Sam goes horseback riding

Sam loves to ride horses and this weekend he took part in the TRAV horseshow in Lexington VA. He came in second in the show ring where he showed off his horsemanship skills and first in his class in the pole bending class. It was great fun - and I love those horses too.

CAST for kids fishing

Today, Sam and his dad - and of course me- went to a wonderful day of fishing put together by Ken, Sarah, and a wondeful orgnaization called CAST for kids at one of the state parks in VA. We had a wonderful time - and I especially enjoyed going on the boat with Captain Charlie. Sam caught three fish. Charlie was a little nervous of me as he explained he was a former U.S. Postal worker who had not had the best experiences with dogs. But Sam's dad told him I was a CCI dog and he was impressed with how calm I was. Charlie is a relly great fisherman and he helped Sam get the most from the ay. Thanks to all for such a wonderful day. See you next year.

A swim party

Sam's dad took me to the old town swim party. Lots of fun in the water - except I split open my front paw and ended up at the vet with a bandage. But I am much better now.
