Nellie's new family.

We had the pleasure of having Nellie's new family stay the week end with us to take Nellie home with them. It is so great to get to really know where our puppies are going. Nellie is going to have the BEST life ahead of her. Well loved.

We felt so fortunate to have Jeff and kelly stay here at the B&B while teaching training classes for dog used search and rescue. If you get a chance read Jeff's book. It is very interesting and well worth taking the time. We appreciate all the hard work Jeff and Kelly put in for such a worthy cause.
Thank you!

Our dream is  just about to be realized! We have been working really hard for the past several years now to open a Bed and Breakfast. We purchased an awesome cedar lodge that had not quite been finished and we have been striving to add the just the right touches to make it the most wonderful place to stay on the Columbia River Gorge.

We set our goals to open in Spring of 2010. We had been juggling between our ranch and the Bed and Breakfast, when our niece Sara and her husband Jason, announced that they were moving back to Oregon. They wanted to be closer to family.

Sara and Jason now live at the ranch. Sara has worked for several years as a Veterinarian Technician. She has such knowledge and skill that is greatly useful and appreciated. We are able to provide personal, hands on, in-house touches to all our dogs with the four housing set ups between both properties.

All of this had added so much more to the raising of our puppies. We feel that we have the best of both worlds. We have had the opportunity and pleasure of meeting several of our new families. They have either flown or driven in to pick up their new puppy or addition to their family by staying at our Bed and Breakfast and having that little extra bonding time.

We were able to get away for a few days and do some pre Olympics site seeing and some great skiing in Whistler, Canada. Thank you Kathy for helping us out. You are so talented on grooming our gang. And so helpful with the care given while we were away.

We had a great Christmas. We had several puppies make it an extra special christmas for their new families.

We had Scarlett Rose's (Elu puppy) new family fly in to hand carry her home. We so enjoyed being able to spend time and getting to know Al who Scarlett Rose will now be part of his family. We feel she couldn't of found a better home.

December 12, 2009 (update)

(He came in a close 2nd. Closest in history.) The Doak award was for the best running back. He was up against a running back for the Heisman. If they thought he was already the best stats proved it then why would the second place guy win? It was a East coast thing. Too bad for my nephew.

December 12, 2009

Personal note: My nephew has just won the Doak Walker award for College Football. Today Saturday the 12th he is up for the Heisman. So that is what we will be doing at 5:00 today. Watching to see. Our nephew plays for Stanford. Way to go Toby!!! You have worked hard to get to where you are.

McKenzie Bradford Adopted (Nicole / Tobin son)

November 4, 2009

We just had the best visit with Chuck and Kris. They drove up from San Diego and spent two nights here at the Lodge. They were able to play, see and pick out their new family member, Nicole's puppy McKenzie Bradford. It was great getting to know them. We feel that McKenzie will have the best home with them. Thank you Kris, Chuck and (Kristen).
