Dear Freckles: Mom says that a lot of non-traditional breeds are being used for sledding these days. In some cases, greyhounds are being bred into traditional sledding breeds, imparting their larger hearts, greater red cell count, and greater lung capacity (but still limited by their lack of winter protection). Mom says Jaz would never pull, and I agree. She flunked out of racing for being a scardy-cat, and she'd probably be afraid of this too. The breeds making progress in the sport of particular interest to mom are poodles and German Shorthair Pointers. Since my breed was developed 120 or so years ago by crossing the progenitor of the French Poodle with the English Pointer (one of the progenitors of the the German Shorthair Pointer), and since I love to pull on my leash (unless mom makes me heel) and love plowing through snow, mom thought this would be a no-brainer of a sport for me. Do you have any idea how hyper I am and how hard mom has to work every night to tire me out so I can be good? Mom assures me it will be fun, and that it will keep me in great shape for BIRD finding. (Did someone say BIRDS???) About the look: I'm constantly giving mom "looks." You would too if you had to live with this lady. Sometimes she dresses me up in costumes, like the this Halloween, the , or the . If you were me, you'd be wary whenever that fruitcake got out her camera and told you to pose too! I . I'm happy for mom's company whenever she joins me in it... (even though we both know she's a little off her proverbial rocker.) I do want to thank you for your concern, Freckles. Mom told me that you're a very busy dog with a lot of supervising of other dogs to do. For your sake, I hope none are as rambunctious as I! Love, Izzy

Happy 2nd birthday, Grant! Steph, I know so many people call the 2's "Terrible" but I teach a 2 year old class one morning a week and I absolutely love it! Enjoy all his questions, all his explorations, all his energy, even though it might be hard. He's learning through all of this! Have fun! Sheryl
