It's time for an update!

Greetings folks! 
I haven't had much free time so I haven't written on this post in a while. Much has been happening.

I have moved up in the ranks of agility. I am still stuck in AKC Open Standard but I am doing really well in Jumpers! I have gotten a bunch of first place runs! I just competed in my first USDAA trial---that was fun.

I love agility!

I really love agility--what isn't to love?

• There are tons of people who adore me. 
• I get to play and run fast. 
• I get LOTS of treats and praise.

I haven't run a bunch with Dad but I love running with Mom or Dad so it doesn't matter to me. The only thing I don't like? I really hate it when Mom takes Hasten out to run and leaves me behind. 

 We have been on so many hikes this summer and I really like those. I get really hot and my tongue hangs out but I don't really like to get in the water like my water-crazy sister. However, I have learned that getting in the streams does help--so I am getting better at it.

Here we go on a serious walk to the Arboretum!

This tree was cut down and Mom was sad--at least they turned it into a cool chair!

 My friend Fiona, who has lived with us most of my life, sadly went to live somewhere called "Florida."  I really loved her. We were the odd couple--she, with her long legs, me, with my short ones...we played together every day with my sister (and sometimes with Barclay too!) I hope she is doing well there. Mom says she is...

All 4 of us head out to a walk. 

Fiona, I looked for you out the window...hope you are good. 

In my free time, I love to climb on top of the aframe or dogwalk and look into the neighbors yard. I hear we are moving--sure hope I can look over the fence!!!

The table isn't bad--but doesn't give me much height!

 We had some fun with agility! 

Hasten and I both have brought home a bunch of ribbons!

One of my happiest moments is with people. I love it when people talk to me or even better, when they come to my house!!! If someone sits--I join them! 

Barclay got to go to school with mom this summer---he is so calm and just shows up in class with the students. I wish I could do that...maybe one day.

Barclay went to the public speaking class.

We have many adventures ahead of us and I can't wait until we get to go to another one of those places where you drive and then spend the night in a room, called a hotel. I LOVE these! We get to hang out, sniff a bunch of stuff and go to agility trials.

Maybe soon we can hit the road and trial again! I really hate being left behind--so hopefully...

That's all folks!

With nothing but adorable respect,

Ciaran, the world's cutest puppy.
