the pup and i had a busy weekend. friday after work we went to söderhamn with the i and two of the girls, to prepare for a lure coursing test and a doggy show. when we were done preparing we went to our hostel, and drank some wine and talked and ate blueberry muffins. the three dogs decided to share my very tiny and hard little bed with me, even though there were lots of empty beds available. (the day after we were told we had spent the night on the man-floor. i'm sure the woman-floor had nice soft big fluffy beds. and clean toilets. and roses in pots. huge mistake!)

saturday we went up early for the final preparations. then we lure coursed and doggy showed and carried things back and forth and talked to doggy people and looked at dogs and pointed out directions all day. the pup was too young to lure course with the real dogs, but he got to do a test-run when the big ones were done. his girlfriends did well in their races, and one of them was the second best in field! she got enormous piles of prizes.

sunday the pup and i went to a doggy class with the a-b and the princess l. it was really a two-day class, but we thought it would be better to miss only half of it than to miss it all. we had great fun, and the pup had half a kilo of meat balls. and the teacher said he was perfect. of course he is!

after that we were just tired. i still am. the pup is not.  ¶ 5:43 PM
