Chance and Larsen prepare for a road trip.
An unexpected joy of getting our first Welsh Springer Spaniel has been meeting any number of enthusiasts for showing, hunting, rally, obedience, and just palling around with these engaging dogs.
Recently, Statesman's Tiz Now Tiz Then ("Chance") stopped by for an overnight visit. I had to give Larsen a lesson or two on hospitality. After some huffing and puffing, the dogs settled down nicely for the night. Larsen slept right along side of little Chance, pressed up against the mesh of Chance's wire crate. What makes these dogs tick?
On Wednesday, we headed for the beach with the dogs. We took a brief detour to drop Chance off at Kim Parkman's Pocotaligo Kennels, as Kim extended a helping hand to Chance's owner MaryAnne while MaryAnne attended to some family matters.
Pocotaligo Kennels does a great job with training and maintaining the dogs, but it is melancholy, for the human, to leave behind a happy little spaniel.

Kamp Kimmy.

It's tough to leave behind a happy little spaniel.
