Till the snow is gone

We had been up the mountain couple times a week while the snow lasted.

MeMe and Moka brought their friends along too.

Then Morgan and Roxy got to come up. They were fitted with skijoring gear for a workout.

Scarlet got to come up with Morgan too. She was also required to skijor.

The snow was getting so sticking and we required 3 DP (dog-power) to skijor. 

That was probably our last skijor trip as the trail was breaking up in a few spots with the snow melting.

Moka is 5

Where did time go?

Moka is 5.

We started the celebration with a snowshoe hike with her mom Hermione, and daughter MeMe.

It was so funny mother and daughter had their tongues out like mirror image.

Happy dogs.

We finished the evening with Peanut butter banana pupcake.

MeMe and Morgan's sit/stay were so much better now.

Roxy, MeMe, Morgan, Moka, Hermione, Scarlet.

Ch MeMe

MeMe is now a Canadian Champion.

This was her first day of show in Chilliwack. 

Look at how she performed on this first show and compared to the last one and I was so proud of how fast she had learned and improved.

She took Winner Bitch, Best of Winners and Best puppy in Breed.

MeMe in Puppy Group.

MeMe was so easy going and patience. 

She was waiting for show time, resting on the grooming table.

This was the second show.

MeMe took Winner bitch again. 

The third show was the Western Canada Samoyed specialty.

I was showing Moka.

Our friend Teresa had kindly showed Hermione for us and won Best Veteran.

Frank showed MeMe as she won another Winner Bitch.

This was the fourth show. MeMe again took winner bitch and became a Champion.

This was the fifth show and also MeMe's first show as "Special". 

She must have known that she was competing against the adults and she stand still for examination, even fixed her own stack when the judge was examining her.

This was the sixth and the last show for the week.

MeMe showed like a "Pro". 

She stacked herself, stand still for the judge, never stopped wagging her tail.

She moved well. 

She had improved so much from the first, in only a few days. 

MeMe did 6 shows in 5 days. She showed her heart out.

She won every show.

Most of all, she never stopped wagging her tail.

She is a little trooper, a true working samoyed.
