We finally got Chloe to the groomers for a haircut. She was a big mop.
Chloe Bubble Chaser
Filmed Chloe chasing some bubbles in the backyard on the GoPro at 60fps and then played it back at 15fps.
Spring Cut
I finally took Chloe in for a haircut, as always she was turning into a shaggy mop and with the spring melt, it was making for a messy dog after she came in from outside. The before….
…and the after.
She was a tired pup after coming home.

Two More Sleeps…
Only a couple of more days, where has the time gone. We have had our tree up for three weeks, we had cut it down back on December 2 after the Family Bonspiel. Here is a picture of the tree waiting to be tied down to the car. We bought it at Agrams and had it freshly cut down (from the rafters).
It turned out to be a good tree, there were a lot of trees hanging that day and it was hard to spin them around.
Susan and the girls did their usual good job of decorating the tree.
Here is Gillian and Chloe before she headed off to work today. She got a lot of hours this weekend, tomorrow morning I’m dropping her off on my way to work as she starts at 6:00 am.
Santa Chloe.
Santa Chloe’s helper…Chloe Elf.
I borrowed a 10-20mm wide angle lens from one of the guys at work. This is the type of lens they use for real estate photos. Makes the rooms look a little bigger.
Chloe
Chloe is getting a little shaggy looking. When I downloaded the pictures from this week, I found this one that one of the girls had taken this morning. I trimmed around her eyes this morning, but she’ll need the full cut soon.
Gardening
Angela and Claudia were planting some seeds, except Chloe got ahold of their pots.
And the chase was on.
Captured and scolded.
Chloe slipped through their net and was now a few steps ahead of Angela.
Her exercise done, she gave the pots back and it was time to relax.
Haircut
Chloe went to the groomers today for a good trim, here are the before and…
…after shots.
R.I.P. Mickey
We got word that Mickey (Lori and Dale’s dog) passed away today. His health had deteriorated recently and he was having a hard time earlier in the week. Here is Chloe and Mickey in August 2010.

Walk In The Forest
Claudia, Chloe and I went for a walk in the forest on Sunday. While we were at the park, a train went by and Chloe was barking at it.
Claudia found a small hill that would make a good toboggan hill.
Claudia figured she didn’t need a sled.
Chloe Pics
I have been using Chloe to practise my focusing and camera settings. It is challenging trying to photograph a black dog.

Hoping to do some time lapse photography of the front hall to try and see what Chloe does throughout the day. I imagine it is a lot of this. I’m going to do some video of her on the treadmill.
