Poor old guy isn’t doing too well. It’s a struggle for him to get up and move around. He’s still eating though. Only the finest foods, mind!
My website host sold out to another company. I have been so pleased with the service from Webstrike Solutions over the years, I hope that the new host is as good. My site was ported to the new servers last week so it’s time to test that everything’s working as it should.

I picked up two 16×20 canvases from the Post Office today. I have to say, I’m really pleased with how they turned out. They were created in Painter from two jumping photos of Shelties Shelby and Jordan. They were printed and stretched in Newfoundland. It’s great to find reliable printing services in Canada.
I’m afraid the photo of the canvases don’t really do them justice so I’m linking in the files before printing.

Saturday, I was in Rochester and had time to visit the George Eastman House. What an impressive place – and what an amazing man George Eastman was!
There were a couple of exhibits running. One was entitled
TruthBeauty: Pictorialism and the Photograph as Art, 1845-1945
The other was an exhibition by Andy Lock. I was very impressed with this one. The series was called “Orchard Park” and the photographs were created by projecting the original images onto fluorescent green walls and fixing the image before it faded. I hope I got the description right. It was very unusual.

I ran out of dog biscuits yesterday. Desperate times call for desperate measures – today I’m going to try baking my own!
I found a couple of tins of cheap no-name salmon in the back of the cupboard. I know I have cheese and flour too. Off I went to google some recipes. I what seems to be the perfect recipe for me to try on Shirley Chong’s very informative website (she also has some great training tips there too).
I think I’ll try “Orion’s Fish Crunchies”. Shirley wisely says “If they burn a little on the bottom, don’t worry – most dogs are not connoisseurs and will love them burned”. PERFECT!
This past weekend there was an obedience trial held by the OVGRC at tThe Training Hall in Carp. I was there to take title shots – and any other shots people wanted me to take 🙂
Little Tali was one of the dogs to title that weekend
