Keegan in MI

[shais_mom]

Keegan, my mom and I all went away for a few days last week. We went to their cottage in Kalkaska MI. It was very nice and quiet and peaceful no cable tv and internet, and after yesterday when I got home- and back online I was ready to get in the car and go right back. :mad:
it was a bit chilly and with me on crutches unfortunately Keegan didn't get to swim. I just couldn't get around well enough.
My mom's cousins have cottages up there also and one of them was up and his wife brought over their 3 year old Schnauzer named Bailey. She's quite the cutie. But she didn't want ANNNNYYYYTHING to do with Keegan. She acted like Keegan does when I'm playing with other dogs, she started barking and jumping around and then pooped on the floor b/c her mom was making over Keegan. :eek:
I edited out her face in some of the pics (the human) b/c I don't think she'd appreciate having her pic posted.
I'll just post a couple here then add the link.
doing what she does best - rolling on her tennis balls

Thanks for looking.

Keegan and Bailey are both adorable. :D The first picture is my favorite.

[Donnaj4962]

What great pictures! Your Keegan is so adorable. I love the humanlike expressions!

My friend had a schnauzer named Bailey! She looked just like your Aunt's Bailey. His Bailey had to be PTS, and now he has a new schnauzer.... named "Bailey Too"!!!

Thanks for sharing the pics! THe cabin looks very nice!

[shais_mom]

Thanks! :D

[lizbud]

Aww Keegan, that Bailey doesn't know what she's missing. :) I'll bet
you would even share one of those precious tennis balls with her. :)

That looks like a neat place to have. So close to the water.

We went to their cottage in Kalkaska, MI.

Is that Pine Street, off Crawford Lake Road, overlooking Crawford Lake?

:eek: :)


That's not a "cottage" ~ That's a HOUSE by the Lake!!

:D


Nice "Pad"!

How much :eek: SNOW in the winter?
Is there a Snow Escape Hatch in the roof?

yupper it is! :D
uhhhh -
i've seen drifts as tall as the garage.
A snow hatch would be a good idea!

SNOW?
uhhhh -
I've seen drifts as tall as the garage.
A snow hatch would be a good idea!

But that begs the Question ...
After exiting the Snow Hatch ~~~ WHERE does one GO?

Reminds me of winter in Star Lake, New York, as a toddler I vividly remember snows up
to the SECOND Story windows ... "escape" was via M&D's Bedroom WINDOW!
Then *tunnel back in* to find the front door.

Tell Mr. Dad the "estate" needs a Golf Cart ... so you wouldn't have to *Crutch*
the BRD down for a swim! Keegan could get the hang of Golf Cart riding!

:D

I love the first picture, it certainly looks like Keegan is having a blast! :D
She is such a pretty girl, I adore the coloring she has.
Glad to hear you had a good time.

[ramanth]

What fun! I wish we still had a cottage on the lake. Nice photos. :D

[chocolatepuppy]

Those are some very nice pictures of Keegan. She is so pretty. I would play with her! :D

[shais_mom]

Thanks everyone! :)

[jennielynn1970]

OOH! What a really nice place! It looks so peaceful and serene. Keegan is just gorgeous!

Bailey cracked me up... with those eyebrows she looked like she was ticked off, lol.

What a happy girl! :) Great pics Staci!

[critter crazy]

Great pics!! Keegan is a Gorgeous Dog! Bailey is a littke Cutie!!:)

[Daisy and Delilah]

It looks like Keegan had a blast!! I know it's pretty cool up there in Michigan right now and I know it was beautiful.

Bailey is a cutie patootie and Keegan is as gorgeous as always!! :)

[cmayer31]

Ahh, I love the first picture posted of Keegan rolling on her ball! Great pictures, and I'm sure she'll understand not being able to swim in the lake this time. :)

[4 Dog Mother]

Wow, what a great "cottage!" I wish my parents had one like that. Keegan looks so sad that Bailey wouldn't play with her. But she always has her tennis balls. Glad you were able to get away and find a little time to relax.

[anna_66]

Sounds like a great time. Too bad Keegan didn't have a friend to play with, but I'm sure she kept busy with her tennis balls!

[pitc9]

Wow, what a beautiful place!
I love the pic of the BRD that Amy reposted!
What a happy girl!

[cloverfdx]

Lovely photos Staci :D. Keegan is such a pretty girl, but then i do have a soft spot for BRDs ;).

Thanks for sharing with us.

[gini]

Oh Staci - what great pictures. Isn't Keegan just the cutest - I can just hear her snorting as she rolls around on her ball.

Little Miss Bailey is a cutie - she sure doesn't know what fun she is missing.

[shais_mom]

Thanks! :)
that's my background on my computer right now ;)

[cyber-sibes]

I'm glad you got away for a few days - you need the break! (but not literally, you know what I mean ;)) Poor Keegan, she looks so forlorn with no one to play with. But obviously the BRD knows how to have a good time! She's such a sweetie!

[RobiLee]

Yea! Its the Big Red Dog! Love seeing that girl. Glad you got to get away for a few days. I'm a bit jealous I want a cottage to escape to. No fair!

Lots of love and hugs coming to you and the Big Red Dog!

[Ginger's Mom]

Oh Keegan, that sure did look like at lot of fun. And you look so cute rolling around on the grass. I like your collar, it looks very pretty on you.
