We need a bigger house


The AKC dog show was in town recently so we deicded to go early on Sunday before my home playoff game as the Newfoundlands were showing that morning. We put Sailor in his kennel and headed for River Center in St Paul around 8:30 am. There are a lot of quirky people at the dog show! We walked around adn finally found a few Newfies. When I saw this guy, I looked at Todd and told him "we need a bigger house". He was a monster. but sweet as can be. His name is Levi and he weighs 148 lbs.

To the right is Monte, and look how gorgeous he looks. That's with lots of brushing for the show. Get the feeling that Sailor will hardly ever look like this.
All the Newfies at the show in the ring.

After the show, I had to get to the Metrodome for the Vikings game within a couple of hours, so we ran home to let Sailor out of his kennel. As soon as we walked in the house, we smelled it. He had pooed in his kennel, but it was diarreah, so we couldn't really fault him. I traced it back to the 20 or so chicken jerkey treats I had given him the night before. . . Racing off to the dome and now in a traffic jam. Made it just in time. Whew!
