Thank you for this blogging event. I do post up pictures of me along with my Chesapeakes and MK so my regular readers already know what I look like. So I am posting up pictures of me for the new bloggers coming to visit my blog, plus none of you know the answers to the questions we have been asked so  you will learn something new about me.

So here goes…….

I am the current owner of 3 Chesapeake Bay Retrievers and 1 Marsh Kitty. I have been blogging about their adventures since 11/17/11. I am married and have been for almost 18 years. I am so glad he is into the animals as much as I am or I wouldn’t be able to support my habit. I try to train along with my husband when he is home our dogs for hunting and UKC, AKC hunt test competitions. I just started showing my young chessies in UKC, AKC conformation shows. Recently I got Gamblers UKC Grand Champion title. Glory is currently showing in AKC conformation. I have done lure coursing and dock jumping with them also. Anything dog related I am there. I recently lost my heart/foundation dog of Sand Spring Norman but in his illness I gained a cat! At one time I owned 6 cats but haven’t had any for a few years until now when little 1.3# Marsh Kitty entered our lives.

Let the pictures tell you!

 

I am a avid hunter, here I am with Norman and our first banded mallard.

Our house is filled with stuff we have harvested over the years.

I kiss ducks.

I can shoot with the best of them.

I just love my puppies.

If I could be a hoarder I would.

I used to ride my horse up a foot wide trail in the Colorado mts to shoot elk.

One of my best adventures was Alligator hunting and yes I kiss gators too.

So there you have it a couple crazy things about me!
