It's sort of a good news/bad news story today, with no photos. Dennis and I went on vacation and Izzy went to stay with friends and puppy raisers Paul and Kerry. She had a terrific time and we were looking forward to picking her up when we got back. On Saturday came the email from our son that Izzy had gone into heat. We knew it was coming ~ just not when.
As it happens, this is a great time for Izzy to go into heat - she can be there, get her hips x-rayed, get her one year shots, and still come home in time for about 2 1/2 months of training before February turn-in. The bad news is that Izzy went on the CCI underground railroad from Chico to Lincoln to Rocklin to Santa Rosa without a stop in Cameron Park. We managed to get her a ticket which was good for us travel time and gas-wise, but I feel really bad that I won't see her for another 3 or so weeks.
So, it's nice to be back home but it's a bit sad to be without our girl Izzy. The other three girls are happy to have us here and even might be happy to not have Izzy... Skippy is thrilled to have someone who pays attention to him back in the house and the chickens did quite well under Jon's care.

i am sorry that you had to go to girl camp but at least you will be home in time for the holidays and way before you have to go to college. If you get any inside scoops while you are up there at cci, let me know. I'm extremely worried about this "college thing"

She'll do great at the Kennels! I really shows you how important the early learning is in the CCI world!
