There are not enough words to say thank you to this wonderful little dog.

NFC AFC Tavi retired from competition this week after suffering an achilles injury.

We are all so very disappointed to not be able to defend our National win as she was having the best year of her life, with 4 Open wins, but we are so very grateful that her injury can be treated and rehabbed. She is in great spirits.

She owes us nothing. We owe her everything.

Suffice to say, there has been a lot of tears in our camp these past few days, reliving all the amazing memories she has given us.

Tavi was extra happy to hear she is no longer on a diet. She will be thrilled to receive any treats you may have for her when you see her next.

*Team Tavi*

Retrieving For Love Poison bird land blinds this morning!

Retrieving For Love Seminar A little tidbit of the GREAT stuff we are learning today.

Happy Tuesday. ❤️

A wonderful day with our four legged family. Merry Christmas to all. Kenny & Marcy

Roading me more than the dogs. ❤️

Tor to the tenth series. ❤️

After a long day training puppies yesterday, sometimes it’s nice to give them all a mental health day.

1/2 of Horsetooth is home in Colorado safe and sound! The other 1/2 is at a trial in Nebraska. A beautiful day to check out the new pond and let the dogs have a run! Thank you Georges Acreage for the great work on the pond. Will start filling it soon!
