What's so Special About This?
It's a bikini made of lagotto hair! That's right... this garment was crafted by Judith from the lovingly-culled hair of her lagotto. Click on the image to see a larger picture.

Games and Playtime for the Dogs

Vando declares, “No room for me in there!”

Adrina takes her turn cooling off.

These dogs have such wonderful temperaments and get along in a group very well. They need lots of exercise but they are very pleasant in a pack.
Other Shots

Adrina loves to chase sticks so much that we have to tell her to go take a rest.

Cooling off from the Arizona sun in the shade of the house.

I have spent a little time teaching Adrina to hunt for truffles in the Arizona dessert. We made a truffle by putting some dry rice in the toe of a sock wrapped in a little mesh bag.
I put truffle infused oil on the sock. Adrina is able to find it buried in the soil. She has a great nose and loves this “game”.
