Photo Courtesy of Durango Herald 23 Sept. 2008Jim, Doug, Aspen and I ran the Animas Mountain Mug Run on Sunday 22 Sept. and our picture appeared in the local paper the next day. I guess the photographer liked the dawgs! The run is the last in a summer long series here in Durango. They are all trail runs of varing lengths and all dog friendly. It's nice in a town where dogs are so much a part of the lifestyle that they allow them in these events. Doug and Aspen are sporting their fancy new bandanas they were given that morning. Jim and I received handmade ceramic coffee mugs created by a local artist. Doug, our labrador, was almost 8 months old at the time of the run. This was his first official event and was all excited by the commotion. Aspen, our golden retriever, is a seasoned veteran and remained calm and steady. Doug is growing everyday and is dwarfing our dear Aspen in size, yet she remains the alfa of the backyard. Aspen will be three in February and Doug will be 9 months old tomorrow. They get along splendidly and despite all the new dogs that have moved in the neighboring yards recently, they remain relatively speachless. It's nice to know that our dogs aren't the barky ones of the neighborhood.
Happy Trails!
