The end of summer is always a busy time in the Valley. For Chaudron it's been a busy time too. A time of learning and growth for sure, but he's had fun along the way. He has been out lots to different Valley events, meeting and greeting the public. The hardest part for Chaudron must be standing still to talk with so many folks about what kind of dog he is and where is he from etc. etc. People will come from across the town lawn just to ask and pet him....some even want a picture. I think in another year this little region will be well educated on this breed of dog! He has gotten some friends along the way who know him and will spot him from across a street, shouting his name. But he's a dog, for the most part he takes it all in stride.
The first weekend of the month was the New Market Fall Festival...lots of sites, sounds, and smells...oh and yummy food. This past weekend he attended the Edinburg Ole Time Festival and then a rather large childrens party...thoroughly exhausted by the end of the weekend after the kids were finished with him. But the cake was so good. Last weekend it was the final swim at the county pool, all for the dogs. Here is a picture of him shaking it off, thanks to Jean Fogle, author of "Salty Dogs". She was snapping away at dock diving dogs and dogs just blissing out hanging with each other at the pool. Here is a link to her site. http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/dogaholics/
