Ike is doing great in the frozen land of Minnesota


IKE is not sure if he can say hi to Lois' cat. She likes to tease the new pups in training. He did really well on this shot-did not try to chase her. Goood Boy...



IKE snuggling with Lois' Lab Golden Retriever cross TRINITY, all nice and warm after a fun romp in the snow!


IKE laying down on the big dog bed. Almost tired, but yet does not want to miss a thing inside the house...


Hi all,

IKE & I went to fellow puppy raiser - Lois Bauer's house on Saturday. Boy did we all have fun!!! She needed a puppy fix & IKE needs to visit more places... Lois had her digital camera handy and took the following wonderful photos... Thought that we could use a break on the blog from the beautiful green grass of CA, for the MN reality of winter.....A little humor!! IKE is doing wonderfully, enjoying puppy class & meeting new human and dog friends, plus a well seasoned CCI Puppy Raiser kitty (Lois's). IKE's winter coat is slow to come in but we are still trying! In the first photo, IKE is standing in the snow. A rare calm moment. Otherwise he was running back and forth and up and down & mostly flying through the air as he would leap up onto her wooden deck-instead of using the stairs...
From Debbie, Ike's puppy raiser
Patty adds:
I think Izzy and Ike look a lot alike. Some of the litter had very fluffy and thick coats, while others had more sleek coats - I think this is the difference between Sequoia's and Halor's coats. Izzy and Inca look very different in class - Izzy's coat is the sleeker variety while Inca is more fluffy. By the way, I'll stick with the green grass to live in, but appreciate the miserable cold Debbie has been experiencing - I survived 14 months in Bismarck, North Dakota a long time ago...
