A Dog's Life: Spring tracking in North Carolina
http://ayla-adogslife.blogspot.com/2009/04/spring-tracking-in-nc.html
Wednesday, April 8, 2009. Spring tracking in North Carolina. Sandi and I met Niamh and her person Barbara this morning at our friend Rob's farm. Typical for this time of year, the weather is crazy. We've had warm sunny days after much rain, and then last night we had a freeze. Makes the farmers a bit nervous, but it was perfect tracking weather! At one point I found something really dead and exciting near the track, but Sandi called me back to water and rescent, and it helped me refocus and get back to t...

A Dog's Life: December 2008
http://ayla-adogslife.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 7, 2008. Finally - I am in a "Parade" (and I'm exhausted). Wow - no one told me how much excitement there was in a "holiday parade." It started out exciting - but I had no idea! I'm really glad I was with my dog and people friends with Paws4Ever (formerly APS of Orange County), because there were a few times it was really nutty with all the clapping and cheering, and the fire truck right behind us honking (he was told he couldn't use his siren! I wonder what kind of holiday this is?

A Dog's Life: A lucky day for me!
http://ayla-adogslife.blogspot.com/2009/02/lucky-day-for-me.html
Friday, February 13, 2009. A lucky day for me! It is always a good sign when Sandi loads me in the car in the morning to take me to the barn. Chances are really good that it means when the horses are fed and the barn chores are done, I will get to track! It was a beautiful morning with a blue sky and a little breezy. He has piles of hardwood and equipment here by his wood barn. What I wouldn't give to root around checking out critters in that barn! Check out her blog "Setter Tails" at my links section.

Tuesday, August 4, 2009. Dog Days of Summer! Once it got hot, the tracking fields were high with orchard grass and the snakes came out, we took a break from tracking in N.C. - and I've been on vacation! I haven't done much training this summer, and I know that soon Sandi and I will have to get back to work, but until then.Jump in, the water is fine! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Dog Days of Summer!

A Dog's Life: November 2008
http://ayla-adogslife.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 6, 2008. Well, It has been ages since Sandi has taken time to post on my blog. I've been really bored. We haven't tracked because of the snakes and the farmers who let us use their fields have been harvesting wheat, hay, etc. Sandi has been showing my big sister Ruby to finish two Rally titles - I have been neglected. And a bunch of different kinds/flavors of dog treats. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A Glorious Day Well, It has been ages since Sand. View my complete profile.

A Dog's Life: February 2008
http://ayla-adogslife.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 7, 2008. Sandi is telling me that this coming weekend is going to be very exciting and fun. We are going to a 2-day VST tracking workshop in Pinehurst, NC. I can't think that far ahead really, all I am thinking about is today. This morning we headed off early to run in the dog park, and what do you know! There was Jenn and Big Sandy, Bernie, and a puppy. Turns out the puppy was Royal! Finally we got to meet and play and RUN. We ran a lot. It was great! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A Dog's Life: tracking with Gretchen
http://ayla-adogslife.blogspot.com/2009/03/tracking-with-gretchen.html
Monday, March 16, 2009. This morning I was loaded into the car to go to the barn - a VERY good sign. My tracking gear was in the car and I was psyched! After Sandi did her barn chores we hit the road to Sanford, NC to meet our tracking coach Gretchen Stephenson. She finished her AKC CT tracking title this winter with one of her Weims, Obie. Gretchen was one of our first teachers in tracking. We met at a large park, which was mostly under water thanks to the previous 5 days of steady rain. Well done Cousi...
