May. 16, 2008 • Dog Show Field Trip

Posted in Home Education



This topic for this week's Heart of the Matter Online Meme is recent field trips.

We had a really fun and informative day at a dog show in March.

The terrier races were extremely amusing.

I was quite impressed with some of the creative and educational displays.

Looks like fun. I think the agility and herding would be interesting to watch. I didn't even know dog shows had herding.

I've never been to a dog show before. We've only seen them on TV. The duck herding would have been fun to watch.

The dogs and ducks are too cute! It reminded me of the movie, "Babe."
