http://www.theperfectstockdog.com/stockdog_visitors/2008/0801.htm January 2008 - As you can see, clean-up from the ice storm is still going on, but we're gaining. Ben works at it almost every day. Goose hunting has been good. Naw, Ben doesn't goose hunt. Neighbors Jamie and his son Jacob do. Dr. Liz Fullbright, Cross 7 Vet, got a new Standard Poodle pup. We've had some folks in and out looking at dogs and dropping dogs off for training. The Martin Herron family, Quapaw, Oklahoma took home Brazos. Ben's started Angel and Tom early. Tom already went to Gary McGee, Vinita, Oklahoma and Gary's using him on his goat herd. Lambing has started and the temperatures continue to go up and down. Ben's started throwing on a green log or two from the recently cut wood. We've been through a lot of wood this winter. But we figure each day gets us that much closer to spring. We hope all of you are faring well, too. |

http://www.theperfectstockdog.com/stockdog_visitors/2007/0709.htm December 2007 - Wow ! This year will be remembered as the year of ice storms. We had a little of the January and February storms, but very little time without electricity and water. This December one wreaked havoc on our corner of Oklahoma. Our power went off in the wee hours of December 8th and came back on mid-afternoon December 16th. Some folks have just now had theirs restored and others are still waiting. Our outage was simply an "inconvenience" as we counted our blessings with a wood stove, propane water heaters, oil lamps and rural water. We did suck it up a little on the 3rd or 4th day when the water stopped, but they had it running again by late afternoon. Our neighborhood spent most of the time checking on each other. Some had generators and when they could, shared them. To be honest, we had mixed emotions when the lights came back on. Thanks to all who stopped in, called and sent cards this holiday season. We appreciate you. |

http://www.theperfectstockdog.com/stockdog_visitors/2007/0708.htm October - November 2007 - Where do the days go? The time change really shortened our work day....or, made us get up earlier? We're still confused. Ben's kept busy training outside dogs, hauling in firewood, inspecting and fixing all those little things to get us ready for winter. John and Karen Tate, Seneca, Missouri have been over a couple times. Allen Sanders, Bluejacket, Oklahoma has been in and out and about. He and Ben went to the OKC and Tulsa State Fair Cattle Dog Trials and leaving Thanksgiving weekend for Steve Sturtz's in San Angelo, Texas. More dog trading. Son Blaine, wife Karen and grandsons A.J. and Joseph got to visit in October. Leslie spent a week in Houston the first part of November at the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association annual conference. Everyone's been in and out, bringing and picking up dogs. Bill Hannan, Trezevant, Tennessee and John and Misty Tutor, Demascus, Arkansas. Matt and Liz Fullbright purchased a place north of Vinita on Highway 2 for their Cross 7 Veterinary Clinic. The big move was mid October. Happy Veteran's and Thanksgiving Days !! Safe travel. |
