SNOW SHERPA:

Rey, an Alaskan Malamute, never complains. When his family goes backpacking, this mega-strong member of the Working Group carries 30 per cent of his body weight in camping gear for 120-plus miles.

After taking Chloe to her first lure coursing event, Cori Solomon’s Saluki ran off and spent three days and two nights lost in the wilderness. The dog community and local neighbors came together to help find Chloe.

SWEET 17 PARTY:

Before blowing out her candle treats at the show, Nugget, a 17-year-old French Bulldog, makes her final show appearance in the Veterans class. FYI, the typical life span of a Frenchie is 9 to 12 years. In October, Nugget will celebrate again when the dog’s owner, Dr. Jennifer Arthington, marries Nugget’s handler, Stephen Cabral. The couple have been dog show friends for 36 years.
