This October we decided to foster and adopt three adult male cats from the Mississauga Humane Society. They are wonderful cats and Janey has taken a liking to Edward the part smokey Siamese - Tabby cat (8 years old). Eddie thinks he is a dog and spends most of his time with both Janey and Uly. Janey loves to give him a bath by licking him to death any chance she gets. We also have a short haired tabby called Percy and Bubba Louis a big black and furry part Persian and part Maine Coone. The cats love people especially children and have made the perfect companions to the dogs. I'm happy that the cats have found a family and that the dogs are both loving and kind to them.<br />

Janey loves to carry around her big bones and drop them everywhere so we can trip over them at every opportunity. Her other favourite is the basement freezer where she knows all the goodies are kept. She loves to stand in front of it hoping that the lid will magically pop open and a bar of ofal will pop out!</span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />

They have been very busy helping us with all the Dog Shows and Events this year. They started off with the All About Pets during Easter weekend and Janey Mac earned her Canine Good Neighbour certificate. They were charming and well behaved with all the large crowds and didn't show any signs of stress or being upset. In fact they were more upset when there was nothing to do and no one to meet. Then they both worked the big show. Woofstock 2010 this past June. Wow!! It started off with Janey participating in a celebrity look-alike contest at the King Edward Hotel. She almost placed first but came in a cool second as the princess from Avatar. What a good sport. She had fun and it showed. The following weekend she started off Woofstock and the fashion show on Saturday. Followed up by a well deserved break on Sunday. Ulysses worked Sunday for Janey and wowed the crowds and participated in the fashion show as well. What good sports. After that they helped celebrate George's 46th birthday with a houseful of guests (all dog lovers and owners) of course. Followed up by a huge Canada Day celebration (23 people in all) including 8 kids. That of course meant delicious bbq for both Janey and Uly in the form of chicken, pulled pork sandwiches and angus burgers. The dogs certainly had fun on Canada Day. They didn't mind the fireworks or sparklers. The weekend brought on more houseguests in the form of little cousines Maya and Jordan for Saturday and now the kids are off for the summer so the dogs are in for a lot of activity. Coming up this month will be the Niagara Dogfest, July 23-24 weekend in St. Catharine's. Here are a whole bunch of photos. Hopefully we will have more time to take some cool pictures of all our activities this summer.</span><br />

Janey will be turning 2 years old next month and Uly will be a mature 3 years old. Wow how time flies and how quickly my pups are mature dogs. Well in age they are mature but they are as goofy as when they were pups just bigger. Here are some recent photos I took of them quite intent on taking a cookie break after a long nap. It's hard work sleeping all morning. I wouldn't know but then again I'm the hard working human in the house .....</span><br />

Janey Mac is nearing the end of her second heat and it hasn't been bad at all. She's grown a wee bit more and soon I'll have to make a special coat for her for St. Patrick's Day. Uly was beautifully groomed but then Janey roughed him up so much he's a mess again. While Janey has been in heat Uly and I have had some time together walking our friend Lucky the chocolate Labrador. Uly and Lucky are good buddies and they are beautiful to watch together. They walk in tandom. </span>Vintage Boho-Shabby Chic http://www.blogger.com/profile/13982407215635367429noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268692545890925754.post-65255856575649925522010-01-10T18:35:00.000-08:002010-01-10T18:53:33.943-08:00It's a New Year 2010<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #073763; color: #d9ead3;">Well another year has gone by and both Janey Mac and Uly are getting older. Not always more mature on Janey's part but bigger. That's for sure. The brain fairy is still only visiting instead of staying permantly and she's a bit of a bruiser. Tough girl who's not really aware of her strength most times. She's also becoming a teenager / adult who definitely does not like to be challenged. She never starts a fight but can certainly finish one. I'll have to take some new photos of the upstart who has now not allowed to come with me to the leash-free dog park anymore since she was not amused over a little terrier growling at her and decided to clean house not once but twice. It took 3 of us to pull her off the terrified female dog who might want to reconsider picking fights with dogs a hundred pounds heavier than her. I had actually sat on Janey holding her by the tail while George was trying to put her leash back on and she walked towards the dog with me holding on for dear life. Another man (thank-you) who ever you are by adding some extra weight and holding her back end for me. She could have killed the other dog instantly but thankfully she was only out to teach it a harsh lesson about messing with her. Unfortunately it started to squeal like a rabbit, mouse whatever and her prey drive kicked in. Holy $#!$#@@ was she determined to just "go to town" on this poor terrier. Thankfully no physical marks on the dog but for sure it will need a life time of psycho therapy and is probably having nightmares of flying werewolves attacking it. Well what can we say. While she was fighting Uly was busy eating a tennis ball he took from the dog park. He managed to consume half of it while the fight was attended to and threw up the rest of it that night on his dog bed for me to have to wash the next day. At least for now all walks will be on lead and no more dog parks for a while. I really don't want to have to go out and buy a muzzle for Miss Tough B if I don't have too. She can happily run around our back yard and terrorize poor Uly. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #d9ead3;"><span style="background-color: #073763; color: #d9ead3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Here she is skulking around the livingroom with her spooky werewolf eyes. Of course she's a total coward with humans and a real sensitive marshmellow.</span> </span><br />

So we happily have all our decorations up this year. We hope all our friends have a wonderful holiday, a safe and happy one and we'll be back in the New Year!</strong></span><br />

<span style="color: #d9ead3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><strong>Here are some pictures I took as each year we have photos of our kids and our dogs celebrating each Christmas season. Uly was actually sulking because a cookie treat fell under the coat stand and he couldn't reach it so until I retrieved the treat he wasn't going to smile for the camera. </strong></span><br />

Janey and Uly certainly enjoyed the first snowfall. Not so much for myself who this year has to get a new winter coat (ruined the zipper off my old one) that I found out the hard way is no longer water resistant. Same with the boots. Time to go for the heavy artic gear. </span><br />
<span style="color: #d9ead3;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #d9ead3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I decided to grab the camera and take a break from sewing to see what the dogs were up to in the backyard. Janey found some frozen flip flops from the summer time and had fun digging them up. Uly found a few frozen toys that he dug up too and after a good game of chase and keep away they both started looking in to see where I was. I cracked up laughing because they have made the windows so dirty to look out of could can see the paw prints in the photos. </span><br />
<span style="color: #d9ead3;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #d9ead3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Christmas is just around the corner and I've bought both dogs some gourmet cookies that I've locked safely away in the office. Same with the presents. They'll just have to wait like the rest of us to see what Santa brought them. I'm guessing some squeaky toys and a few giant knuckle bones. Both love the smoked variety with a few good bully sticks thrown in. </span><br />

<span style="color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hi everyone. Janey-Mac and Uly have had a fun autumn without too much excitement other than Uly and his hot spots which are now improving. I guess all that rugged outdoorsy stuff was a bit too much for soft-pawed Uly. Both of them have been going out for their walks and going to the Leash-Free Parks, playing with their kids and stealing Pop Tarts. That is Janey's new mission in life to see who's not watching their pop tarts. Smores are her favourite!!! </span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Both of them have successfully destroyed almost all the grass in our backyard and it's always a graveyard of toys that go out there to be dismembered and die. LOL It's not a pretty sight. Janey did get a huge ball to play with that is actually a exercise ball for a horse. It's in one of her favourite colours Purple. </span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">She's also had a bit of the happy tail syndrome going on lately. She's so happy to see everyone she whips that tail into a frenzy and the force of it hitting a wall or door makes it bleed. Not so funny with some friends who have been on the receiving end of it and had blood splattered on their clothing. Of course the tail thing started in time for Halloween. How appropriate. Janey does have good timing. That is for sure. This year the dogs stayed home with me, shelling out candy to all the trick-or-treaters. I made sure to put the gate between them and the children since last year a little boy ran screaming down our stairs upon seeing Uly. Janey was whining, come back all I want to do is lick you to death. </span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Christmas is just around the corner and we are planning our decorating around what will survive the wolfbergers. That should be interesting. </span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Here are some recent pictures of the wolfbergers. Please forgive the ugly backyard. We've given up on that. Wolfbergers 1, humans 0.</span><br />

We didn't have to pay so we were able to use our money to buy lunch and ice cream and the dogs had a great time enjoying the cool breezes and the many people that stopped to meet them.

There were lots of people and of course the dogs were as much an attraction as the Falls. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373761034347975506" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 298px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4T90op8FX-xIcA2ZnW2EH9f5vruVKV3F0U-GgjTfKQ284mKimmGGV0qnS1mE1nITn1w-UxwXr8JuvJTVu8D1Kq16gZ6iBwMPzWk3FMIdUC2QHcliCg16HM92NFSU3rijzpVC1nh6ZXvs/s400/HPIM6610.JPG" border="0" /></div></div></div></div></div></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373761026955072114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 298px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNvLr9-0nI/AAAAAAAAA6I/hJETqhIzSIE/s400/HPIM6612.JPG" border="0" />Vintage Boho-Shabby Chic http://www.blogger.com/profile/13982407215635367429noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268692545890925754.post-62050280712681151292009-08-24T21:00:00.000-07:002009-08-24T21:50:42.133-07:00Day Trip to Devil's Monument and Halfway Log Dump<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlReI5K2I/AAAAAAAAA2w/tfBJ8IB6uwk/s1600-h/HPIM6465.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373750131205679970" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 238px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlReI5K2I/AAAAAAAAA2w/tfBJ8IB6uwk/s320/HPIM6465.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlQmgtnpI/AAAAAAAAA2g/CZC05b2wVik/s1600-h/HPIM6460.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373750116273200786" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 238px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlQmgtnpI/AAAAAAAAA2g/CZC05b2wVik/s320/HPIM6460.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div></div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlRNs6GEI/AAAAAAAAA2o/Civ1sLTGSJ4/s1600-h/HPIM6462.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373750126793332802" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 238px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlRNs6GEI/AAAAAAAAA2o/Civ1sLTGSJ4/s320/HPIM6462.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div>For the record this day trip was quite the adventure. It was a beautiful day, sunny but cool with a breeze. We decided to check out Cape Chin North and the Flower Pot Formations at Devil's Monument. We took the country back roads and parked our car. Then it was a hike through the Bruce Trail Forest (well-marked) down to the observation point to see the outcrop of rocks. No problem except the trail continued down a metal staircase that ended on the top part of boulders that were part of the cliff and a carved out escarpment of the flowerpot formation. The children saw that others were climbing down and that the views were spectacular including waterfalls and the carved out rocks etc. </div><div></div><div></div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlRNs6GEI/AAAAAAAAA2o/Civ1sLTGSJ4/s1600-h/HPIM6462.JPG"></a></div><div> </div><div>George and the dogs were too big and it was a treacherous descent. There was no way that the dogs could have made it down. The kids saw that a family with small children were climbing back up and that the view was to die for. </div><div> </div><div>Off went the kids so I left George behind as I took my chances and slowly made the descent down through the escarpment. </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlnrN5x6I/AAAAAAAAA24/-GoLSt-FhMk/s1600-h/HPIM6472.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373750512673474466" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 298px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNlnrN5x6I/AAAAAAAAA24/-GoLSt-FhMk/s400/HPIM6472.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div></div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNln6N3kSI/AAAAAAAAA3A/coPxSNe8aVI/s1600-h/HPIM6473.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373750516699861282" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 298px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNln6N3kSI/AAAAAAAAA3A/coPxSNe8aVI/s400/HPIM6473.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div> </div><div>We made it down to the Bay and the views were amazing.

It was along Emmett Lake Road and again we had to hike through quite a forest along the Bruce Trail that made the kids a bit uneasy. I can honestly admit that having the dogs with us made us feel better. Our oldest daughter found it a bit scary and decided she was going to walk Uly back through the forest. I think he knew she was scared and he was so good and walked nicely beside her just smiling. We got a bit lost and ended up on the wrong trail but a very nice lady and her son that were hiking with a young Shiloh Shepherd pointed us in the right direction and we found the pathway down to the stone grottoes and beach. </div><div></div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373751682884334274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 298px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNmryl6csI/AAAAAAAAA4Q/ZVcI_G3drXY/s400/HPIM6520.JPG" border="0" /></div><div>This was one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen.

Along the route (Highway 6) there were lots of local artisans and we stopped off at the Indian Craft Stop along the route and Cha Mao Zah. Both were family run and we loved the beautiful handmade arts and crafts. </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>The dogs also loved the owners and on our second run to Tobermory we stopped off at Cha Mao Zah. One of the most beautiful places we stopped at. Les took time to do little necklaces for the children and showed them some wood burning. He also fell in love with Uly. He had never met a Leonberger but I think he found his soul dog. Uly took such a liking to Les and didn't want to leave. We wanted to stop a second time to say by to </div><div> </div><div>Les and his wife Jennifer but the kids were exhausted after two hikes along the Bruce Trails we ran out of time. We told them if they really wanted to find out more about Leonbergers (we gave them an Leonberger Club of Ontario card with the website) and invited to come down and join us for Leopalooza in September. </div><div> </div><div>I think Uly has found a second home when we travel up north. Les and Jennifer had a mastiff so they loved our two friendly giants. </div><div> </div><div>Tobermory is definitely a place we will come back too and so is Cha Mao Zah. A long time ago I found out that my totem animals were a wolf, followed by a salmon. With this trip I also found myself drawn to the beautiful carved Great Horned Owl and George was drawn to turtles and the children each picked out their own special items. I found a walking stick with my wolf. The nicest part of the visit was the hospitality and kindness we were shown by both families. </div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Vintage Boho-Shabby Chic http://www.blogger.com/profile/13982407215635367429noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268692545890925754.post-67299847241481289912009-08-24T18:40:00.001-07:002009-08-24T19:15:12.444-07:00Tobermory<div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNEicNAkSI/AAAAAAAAAwY/cInj_yjaKbQ/s1600-h/HPIM6075.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373714138860130594" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 220px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNEicNAkSI/AAAAAAAAAwY/cInj_yjaKbQ/s320/HPIM6075.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>I think the biggest hit with the kids and the dogs were driving north up to Tobermory.

Uly especially loved the attention people gave him and he was up beside up feeling the spray of water and even stuck his head out the sides to get more water. I think he enjoyed looking at the shipwrecks in the harbour. When the craft stopped over top the wrecks Uly jumped up and looked overboard to see what everyone was looking at. Afterwards more browsing and being stopped by people on the pier to meet the dogs. </div><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNEG2cC9XI/AAAAAAAAAwQ/tTVB5y65K6o/s1600-h/HPIM6077.JPG"></a> </div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE82lvcMI/AAAAAAAAAww/rNwn8TEice4/s1600-h/HPIM6243.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373714592619786434" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 298px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE82lvcMI/AAAAAAAAAww/rNwn8TEice4/s400/HPIM6243.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNEGgoxaYI/AAAAAAAAAwI/llivSd7Mv_A/s1600-h/HPIM6069.JPG"></a></div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE82lvcMI/AAAAAAAAAww/rNwn8TEice4/s1600-h/HPIM6243.JPG"></a> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisa2ErkRoCMGLaGwTEIf6WQu2OltHliGsPBA0frp5-am_Wc8oG_wsZhyphenhyphen-SIju8Rn1QIptuETAzO_OZHjPki447MJZHnOsbZ20lVozds5Vq-FQqz578TtBgKS7VJIvC-6fmD74lLsDhzR8/s1600-h/HPIM6265.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373715143880593026" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 149px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisa2ErkRoCMGLaGwTEIf6WQu2OltHliGsPBA0frp5-am_Wc8oG_wsZhyphenhyphen-SIju8Rn1QIptuETAzO_OZHjPki447MJZHnOsbZ20lVozds5Vq-FQqz578TtBgKS7VJIvC-6fmD74lLsDhzR8/s200/HPIM6265.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNFdEnYT7I/AAAAAAAAAxg/CecbJT_A6Ko/s1600-h/HPIM6281.JPG"></a> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE9LbIvjI/AAAAAAAAAw4/VfkNyD_r1oU/s1600-h/HPIM6269.JPG"></a> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE9_oM4rI/AAAAAAAAAxI/oX0Gsx411-o/s1600-h/HPIM6262.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373714612225893042" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 298px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE9_oM4rI/AAAAAAAAAxI/oX0Gsx411-o/s400/HPIM6262.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE9UvZofI/AAAAAAAAAxA/NX_VI3xEFAM/s1600-h/HPIM6266.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373714600713363954" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 298px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE9UvZofI/AAAAAAAAAxA/NX_VI3xEFAM/s400/HPIM6266.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNFdEnYT7I/AAAAAAAAAxg/CecbJT_A6Ko/s1600-h/HPIM6281.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373715146140569522" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 149px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNFdEnYT7I/AAAAAAAAAxg/CecbJT_A6Ko/s200/HPIM6281.JPG" border="0" /></a> <div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNFJkrgPEI/AAAAAAAAAxQ/pZsG3y98gtc/s1600-h/HPIM6271.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373714811150416962" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 298px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNFJkrgPEI/AAAAAAAAAxQ/pZsG3y98gtc/s400/HPIM6271.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE9LbIvjI/AAAAAAAAAw4/VfkNyD_r1oU/s1600-h/HPIM6269.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373714598212451890" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 298px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpNE9LbIvjI/AAAAAAAAAw4/VfkNyD_r1oU/s400/HPIM6269.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>More ice cream and bought some fresh caught white fish for our dinner.

The cottage was right on the waters of Georgian Bay, Cape Chin South in the Northern Bruce Peninsula. The views were amazing, quiet and unspoiled. The log cabin was large, clean and comfortable with a full kitchen, three bedrooms, 2 washrooms but the views outside were the best! Janey-Mac and Uly were excited and kept looking out their windows to see where we were headed as we passed Wiarton and headed up Highway 6 and when we got to the corner of where we had to turn we were half way to the north pole according to the sign on the local corner/gas bar. We had really good weather although most of southern Ontario was hit with really bad storms and a tornado. We saw some of it up there but being on the peninsula the weather systems changed so fast that it never really rained in one spot for very long. </div><div><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpL6vF-PJPI/AAAAAAAAAoQ/2TPs7ndrNMQ/s1600-h/HPIM5906.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373632992370435314" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 149px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpL6vF-PJPI/AAAAAAAAAoQ/2TPs7ndrNMQ/s200/HPIM5906.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwOotNOu1eYzsC1hS05HzUVKnIJZAqtMM0lX4Y1XCf_HlowePp5yLnYk74cuK_JrHuDmOQVafPhvnAMeQ6PzFfm_4Z-THMvt6HdmS3lJiWZr5PNTm5XBd-YfYKOi7rTLTdLsM2kPO-RXU/s1600-h/HPIM5908.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373632985942271058" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 149px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwOotNOu1eYzsC1hS05HzUVKnIJZAqtMM0lX4Y1XCf_HlowePp5yLnYk74cuK_JrHuDmOQVafPhvnAMeQ6PzFfm_4Z-THMvt6HdmS3lJiWZr5PNTm5XBd-YfYKOi7rTLTdLsM2kPO-RXU/s200/HPIM5908.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div>We arrive at the cottage around 3:00 p.m. and the dogs were really excited (they went nuts exploring lawns and the waterfront. A bit tricky learning to climb up and down those stone stairs but it didn't take them long to figure it out. This was Janey-Mac's first family vacation as Uly has already gone up to the Great White North with us in 2007 as a pup. Both dogs were so good and well behaved. We had no trouble with them inside the cottage or anywhere we went. They were the best example of a good ambassador to their breeds. I think many people were won over by their personalities and how friendly they were. We were stopped so many times everywhere we went that even the kids started answering all the questions and they met many dogs up there. </div><div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373697371522186322" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 298px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzDwyjpdEF7tVP0PghhB_yrFKkhqxRUFHhYfRe1kauHwFpq4zXKYsOtfnepOM0-HXKmFdhGaFPjy8wLMq38wzCJESK_Y7_EoK4pRKiKqVauh-6WsOzLNzpud9-Bk1DOi42tSmiNJ6yth0/s400/HPIM6309.JPG" border="0" /><br /></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>George, Sidney and Janey-Mac did see a coyote on the property walking across the first couple of days but I guess once the coyote saw Janey-Mac and Uly it never came back. I have some wild and the best spooky eye pictures of my crazy loup-garous (Janey-Mac cleaning off the table after dinner) in the shade of dusk wins hands down. I'm sure if that is what the coyote saw then I know for sure why it never came back. We made sure to keep collars on both dogs that jingled considering Uly from a distance looked like a bear and Janey looked like a wolf. We startled a few people on some of our forest hikes along the Bruce Trails who thought they saw a wolf? </div><div></div><div></div><div></div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpL7PR8dslI/AAAAAAAAAoo/yyPL_uPl_9M/s1600-h/HPIM5915.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373633545340039762" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 154px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpL7PR8dslI/AAAAAAAAAoo/yyPL_uPl_9M/s200/HPIM5915.JPG" border="0" /></a> <div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpMzY7eESsI/AAAAAAAAAsw/OOS3EPdhslk/s1600-h/HPIM5926.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373695283756812994" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpMzY7eESsI/AAAAAAAAAsw/OOS3EPdhslk/s400/HPIM5926.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpMysjtfTVI/AAAAAAAAAsQ/Mee97nOb8jg/s1600-h/HPIM6020.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373694521464802642" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 298px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpMysjtfTVI/AAAAAAAAAsQ/Mee97nOb8jg/s400/HPIM6020.JPG" border="0" /></a><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373695304754778706" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 299px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IcowM2KERc8/SpMzaJsX0lI/AAAAAAAAAtI/flmlh_DKx2U/s400/HPIM5921.JPG" border="0" /> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>First thing the kids did is explore the waters and put their goggles on while the dogs patrolled the beach.

Oh well at least she will be done before we go away mid-August. Phew! Hasn't been fun but at least the end is in sight. Miss going places with her. We were suppose to go to the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Uxbridge</span> Highland Games with her but we ended up not taking either dog. Which was all for the best because near the end of the afternoon, the skies opened up and it poured so much rain in the next hour that roads and homes were flooded. We enjoyed the games and there will be a next time. We saw and played with the Scottish breeds. We met some Joanne from Susan's wolfhound <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">fun day</span> with her collies. We met some beautiful Scottish <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Deerhounds</span> and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Dandie</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Dinmonts</span>. The Gordon Setters were great fun and the kids had their fill of dog licks for at least an hour. I would say that the highlight was having the marching band come by while we were eating lunch under the trees and perform in the rain. Beautiful!!! Afterwards, my daughter was given the opportunity to test out the drums with both types of drumsticks. Very cool. She was thrilled. In spite of the downpour the kids loved the Scottish cattle and the vendors were great. We did some serious shopping. One golf shirt, one Irish <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">t-shirt</span> and Green Celtic <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">hoodie</span> (<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">shhh</span> - I know it's the Scottish Highland Games). A beautiful stone plaque with what else but the Celtic dancing dogs from the 7<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">th</span> century. Reminded me of Janey.</div><div> </div><div>I've included some photos from the games and some photos of Janey with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Uly</span>. Earlier today it was very hot and humid. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Uly</span> went around and sat on every air conditioning vent he could find. He was too exhausted from being chased by Janey in the backyard to even bother lifting his head. He <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">just</span> smiled! Well he'll have to put up with a horny hound for one to two weeks more.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Vintage Boho-Shabby Chic http://www.blogger.com/profile/13982407215635367429noreply@blogger.com2
