The Holidays and the Dizzy Dogs

With Thanksgiving just behind us and Christmas upon us, I always find myself wanting to hibernate at home with my hubby and dogs.  I want to decorate and eat.  So, I tend to drag myself out to throw a ball or go for a run because I know I need it even though I don't want to.  But, I have never regretted it after I have gone...only if I haven't so get off the couch....

For Thanksgiving this year we went to my parent's house as usual but different this year was that we were NOT in the RV and NOT going to the T-Cluster in Massachusetts as we have done in years past.  The cluster fell onto the weekend before Thanksgiving this year and I was just coming home from my business trip from China that week.  So, no T-cluster.  But, I did have lots of days of eating and running (yes, I went running) and snuggling with the pups and shopping... 
Right now we are gearing up for the Eukanuba cup in Orlando, Fl next week.  I have been planning this trip all year and Shawn is coming with too!  I will be showing Jr Mint in 2 days of the competition.

I am not running a dog in agility but two Dizzy Dogs will be there representin' as well!  First is my co-owned, bred by Japanese chin, Ch. Dizzy Flyin' Desperado MX MXJ "Desi" owned and handled by Rebecca McCorry.  Desi is a Kazi kid and is starting to close in on his MACh with Rebecca.  I am so proud of this team.  Second is my bred by shepherd, MACh6 Dizzy Park and Spark, "Spark", owned and handled by Gordon Simmions-Moake.  This Tang baby finished #1 this year.  I cannot wait to watch them run!

On another happy note...I just received my 1st box from Pet Gift Box!  This thing is pretty awesome.  NOW, I only share paid for stuff when it truly is worth the price and this box delivers!  Lots of toys and fun stuff.  Came packed full and I love that I can turn it on and off each month.  It makes a great gift as well.  I urge you to check out their website!  You can customize your box to the size of your dog and everything.  LOVE!   https://petgiftbox.com/

Draven feeling pretty stoked with all his new stuff!
 

Lastly, I received my conformation last evening that Tang and I are entered in the Westminster Agility Championship in February!  We didn't get in last year because it was random draw but luckily we got in this year.  I am super excited to show her there.  It is set up invitational style where the top 3 in each height will go to the finals and then it will go by breeds so there is diversity in the final.  I know Tangy still has the juice so if she and I can put 2 clean runs together, she will probably make finals.  And then we get to be on TV!  I would be thrilled so showcase my Tangarooo!!!!

 

Hug your dogs!  The holidays are upon us and they are the BEST GIFTS!
