Bungee Baby!

On The Road Again!

Greetings from our traveling house! We're off again, this time for a long weekend of spring camping to a favorite lake. As we're currently crawling through metro Toronto's rush hour traffic with full signal, I thought I'd put the low speed traffic jam time to good use with the racing fast high speed connection we're getting at the moment.

I received some fantastic "new" family photos today from Bungee's Auntie Helena in Finland. Helena owns Bungee's brother One (new photos of him next!) As you can see she takes the most beautiful photographs! I wanted to attach several of them to my post called "Play". But our family expert on all matters of the net insists I should not go back and add things to a blog that way. OK, a new post then. Here we go...

Baby Bungee - 5 weeks old!

Awwww! How adorable is this? I've never seen this one before! What a sweet puppy, making some plans about sheep I see :-))


Bungee at 5 weeks - already retrieving!

Way to go Mia teaching that puppy all she needs to know early! :->> Mia assures me she put all of her hardest courses and the obedience rulebook under all the puppy's pillows every night and they are prepared to pass with top scores!

Bungee tugging with her new mom at 9 weeks old, while attending her 1st family reunion!

Lots going on behind the scenes this picture does not show. This is more than just "puppy tugging" but puppy tugging in the presence of about 50 other dogs, all busy training obedience and agility, in various areas all around her on the field. This picture was taken at the annual kennel reunion at Tuorla, Finland; a fabulous event the likes of which I have never attended before. Not only is all that activity going on all around us, but I'd known Bungee fewer than 3 days at that point in time. What a big heart this little puppy has had from the beginning!

The point of all that is playing with the pups starts young!

Back to our road trip! The traffic is moving again, the cement of the city is turning to grassy hills now, and we'll be where we're going in no time at all. Time to dig out the camera and get ready for some grilling too.

Special thanks to Helena Tiainen for the beautiful photgraphs!
