Confessions of a Lazy Tugger

Placer playing tug... laying down at his first day back on the job

This last weekend we got to head on up to San Rafael, CA to meet up with Phoenix's new family... and Placers litter mates at Fun Day. It was fun to get away- even if it was a super quick trip.

Don't worry that the litter mate pictures are on my husband's camera.. so you get my cell phone pictures for now.  Just picture 3 more Placers in the picture... all about the same size except one, the female- Palm. His brothers, Pacer and Pryor look just the same and both seem to be nice pups like Place. One of the raisers said that 2 of the "P" goldens (Peanut and Patriot) have already been CC'ed which surprises me with how nice Placer is and how well his other brother in Utah (Pilgrim) is doing. Here's our trip:

Alcatraz (his BFF and my co-raisers Guide Dog) and Placer 

We got to see Phoenix again. He wasn't too happy to have to wear his head collar, but he looks very proud to be a daddy and we even got to see his babies! (on the monitor, but still!) His Breeder Keepers are a wonderful family and love him a lot. Only 5 weeks until the puppies are ready for raisers! We can't wait to see what names they use! (We're hoping the really dark one in the middle is a Male.)

Phoenix sure has some cute babies... Almost White to Dark Red.

He's Official now!  Getting his bandanna.

Placer and his new buddy, Griffin. We brought Griffin home for his new raiser.

 Overall, it was a fun trip and a nice vacation. Hopefully we get to take another trip out there sometime in the future to watch Placer graduate and introduce Mr. "K" to his daddy and his predecessor.
