Loki and Harper

One of the greatest things about having hunting dogs is having friends that also have hunting dogs and train with the same trainer. It makes it much easier when we say were training this weekend and not having to explain why and what for each time. Over the last year while training Odin we have become great friends with Lisa and her Pointer girls- Erin, Daphne and Harper. Were lucky that she lives in Shoreline and is always up for training with our boys.

Yesterday we headed over for the afternoon to do some backyard training before heading back to Chris's place in Eagle Creek next weekend to tighten up on the basics for Odin and Harper and to let Loki play with a birdy. 

After a while Loki and Harper decided that they were done with the bird stuff and it was playtime. Being that they are both puppies, Harper is 8 months old and Loki is almost 11 weeks they got along great and chased each other for about 2 hours before collapsing and falling asleep. Amidst all of this running and playing Loki stumbled upon the pond in the backyard and decided it was prime location to follow the others and get a drink. We all watched as he hovered over the pond and then fell in since it was a bit of out of his reach. Luckily Ben was there to pull him out before he got freaked by the water and later we caught him trying to get into the pond again. Guess he's a water dog as well.

Even though Loki had already fallen in the pond once...

...He sure wasn't 'fraid a nuthin!

Were definitely looking forward to another doggie play date very soon.
