Personally, I don't mind summers in Phoenix except how they impact our Shelties. Poor guys get such limited time to play.

We are entered in the Tucson shows November 7 - 10.
RILLITO PARK RACE TRACK • 4502 North 1st Ave, Tucson AZ 85718

These are outdoor shows so at least there won't be a jumbotron with monster truck ads to distract Dexter.

Yesterday morning Dexter started acting like he had something in his throat. He kept clearing his throat and clearing his throat... Both Keith and I checked and couldn't find anything stuck. So, I went out to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and gave him a small slice of cheese. No problem eating that - or the 2nd piece I gave him.

Today I went to the fridge to get cream for my coffee. And I hear a little cough cough behind me. Guess who?
