Lots of new pictures!!!

The food lady insists on taking a million pictures.

Why cant she just leave me and my Cuz alone?

"It's very important to have a good Cuz and a bad Cuz."

"What?"

"Seriously food lady, that's enough."

"I am NOT a dork!!!"

"OK, maybe I am a bit of a dork."

My little brother is getting huge.

The food lady says he is very handsome.

Sorry, but I don't see it.

I am the most handsome.

He hates wearing a collar.

Look at his ears.

He is the dork.

Ryder also has no idea that he has four legs.

I laugh at him a lot.

He is a dork.

Again, look at his ears!! DORK!!!

He does have a nice smile though.

The food lady is always talking about his eyelashes too.

I don't know what the big deal is.

Look at my teeth!!GRRRRRRRRRR

I love to run and fetch my Cuz.

Sometimes I just run for the heck of it.

But it's much better to run with my Cuz.

See?

What did I tell you?

The red Cuz is ok too.

HA!! Look what the food lady did to Ryder.

shhhh, better him than me.

This is my brother Jameson

He lives next door.

He is a good boy.

This was one of Ryder's first times in deep snow.

He was happy.

It was an unlimited supply of ice and water.

His two favorite things.

Doesn't he know cookies are better?

What a dork.

More dorky Ryder.

(but I really do love him. Don't tell anyone.)

Nothin' butt goldens

Brain trust.

OK, OK, I am a dork too

I should know by now that its just snow.

But I still fall for it every time.

Parking lot races.

Still winning!!!

shhhh, no one was chasing me

Food lady, there better be a good treat after this.

We certainly are handsome aren't we??

The food lady sometimes calls us "Frick and Frack"

Whatever does she mean by that??

Alright food lady, that's enough.

Christmas is almost here

Food lady, why can't it be winter all year round?

Dear Santa, please give me my lunch back.


You have got to be kidding me food lady.
This is NOT what I signed up for

Seriously, more pictures?

Leave us alone Food Lady. We are resting.

Can we get any peace around here?

Recent activities

We call this Ryder's "porn star" pose.

Seriously, THAT is my ottoman, not yours.

The food lady says we are two peas in a pod.

What is she talking about???

This is Ryder's mom, Callan, and his sister Ever.

Its hard to take a picture of four Goldens at once.

Look at my teeth! Ryder is not scared of them though.

This was our last trip to the beach.
I miss the beach.

Haven't posted in a while. We have been very busy!!

We had puppy agility camp in Wisconsin and this past weekend

we had an agility trial. I had lots of fun with the food

lady this weekend and in 10 runs, I got 8 Q's that included

5 first place finishes, 2 second place finishes and a third place.

My little brother is huge now. He is about 40 pounds.

Ryder is a good puppy. We like to play and wrestle.

I like to steal toys from him. He lets me.

He has no choice. I was here first.

What happened to my puppy???

My little puppy used to weigh 13 pounds.

He now weighs 36 pounds.

Holy crap! What happened???

This weekend the food people took us to the dog park in

Lake Forest. My aussie and Red Dog friends met us.

We had lots of fun!!!

We swam and fetched the cuz and ran for 2 hours.

It was great!!!

Grandma's house!

This weekend the food people took us to see Grandma.

Grandma lives in southern Illinois.

Grandma LOVES me. I am the only dog allowed in her house.

She likes to feed me stuff that the food people wouldn't feed me.

I don't complain. Grandma's know best right???

The food people also took me to an agility trial!

I had a great time. Saturday I ran very nicely for the food lady.

I got a 3rd place in Open JWW and finished my title.

I also got a 2nd place in Excellent A Standard!!!

Then the food people took me to get a cheeseburger!!!

Have I mentioned that I love cheeseburgers?? I DO!!

But once again, I had to share my cheeseburger with my little brother.

Its ok though, I like him.

He just better make sure he shares with me at some point!

Dockdogs Yorkville!!!

The food people took us to Dockdogs again this weekend.

I love Dockdogs. It's the best time ever.

The food man threw my cuz perfectly this weekend.

So perfect in fact, that I busted out some HUGE jumps.

I made the finals again too.

My last 2 jumps of the weekend were 20' 5" and 20' 7".

I also finished my Senior Jumper Regional title.

I love the food people.

My little brother also collected money for

"Chase Away K9 Cancer."

He did a good job. Who can resist a fuzzy, cute puppy?

Once again, I had a great weekend thanks to the food people.
