    After we went for a few loops, we stopped for a break and had some snacks and water.

    Mom undid our tuglines(those are the ones on the back of our harnesses). We got tangled up! As my Mom likes to say, we were tangled to beat the band. She says weird things!

    I was helping Pacer be brave. He was a little afraid of all the people and commotion around.

    He got tuckered out before me so Franklin ran beside me for a few loops.

    Lookit that weird thing we had to pass! It's a wooly mammoth! We were helping out at a open house for a museum place about mammoths and other ice age stuff and the transportation museum. That's why there were dogsled rides, cuz sled doggers are part of the transportation history here!

    I got a few more pictures yet!

    My Mom's friend, Ms. Pat, came to be our handler. Her job was to keep us from getting tangled with the other teams while we were waiting to go; keep Anvik from chewing his harness up, cuz he does that when he has to wait to run! And when Mom was out with us, Ms. Pat took care of the two doggers who stayed behind. She gave us treats and water and took pictures too!

    Franklin's sisters were there and were running with one of the other teams! This is Gracie...gee, no family resemblence there! They all look just alike! Franklin and Gracie even sound alike when they woooooooooooooooooo. Crazy!

    Paxil made very good friends with this little girl. Paxil didn't seem like she was feeling 100% good, so she only came for a couple loops. Then Mom left her behind to lounge in the sun. This little girl spent all afternoon just petting Paxil. They both seemed to enjoy it!

    After a whole bunch of loops, we got to lay around for awhile. Mom gave us baited water and snacks.

    I wasn't quite as tired as some of the other dogs so I was snooping in the truck!

    When we were done our snacks, we got put back in the boxes and we came home! It was a very fun day. Mom said we ROCKED! We didn't cause any troubles; we were nice to all the people who came by; we went around the loop with no troubles, even when we were getting tired. Next year, we will probably go help out too!

    Now Mom and I both need naps. Having fun can be hard work too!

    WOOOOOOOO

    Tehya, I'm amazed at the fun you have! I am so jealous! It looks like a good day was had by all. By golly Tamara, you sure do have an all white Pacer. I should have known that before I asked you about your friends white dog in your other thread.

    Tehya, I just love it when you take your paws to the computer. How else could we ever experience the fun that occurs *way up north* (oops I was starting to sing). I sure would have loved to have taken one of the rides on your sled, but I bet you'd really have been tuckered out after hauling me around.

    I hope Paxil is feeling better today. That little girl looks like she is *one of us*...PTers that is. We recognize our own kind. heehee.

    Anyway, thank you for sharing your day. Good dog!

    We were supposed to do the rides day a long time ago, but it got cancelled cuz it was too cold. We haven't been out on the sled for a couple weeks, but we hadda go help cuz we promised we would! We are glad we did too, cuz it was lots of fun! Mom says we are done running for this season now. Our trail at home is wrecked and it's getting kinda warm for running.

    WOOOOO

    Paxil is feeling better today. She ate most of her dinner tonight. She's never been a good eater and she wouldn't touch anything last night. I think she just overheated a bit yesterday. For a dog that sleeps beside the woodstove, she has a very thick coat.
