When we took our trip to Canada for the Canadian Regionals, we stopped for an overnight stay at Streamside Campground and Golf Course to break up our trip.

Our campsite:

Beautiful views… the campground backed up to the golf course.

Rita and Lager officially touching ground in New York to stay the night! Now we can officially add New York to their States Visited Map! Click HERE to see Lager’s Map… and click HERE to see Margarita’s Map!

The food we ordered from the restaurant was great too! … A perfect stop-over !

PV Pets hosted Pet Palooza this year. For this event we did not have to camp, as it was only about an hour away from our home!

When we could only make the last day (Saturday) of the Pets in the Park event in Delaware, we decided at the event to make a spontaneous trip to Fairfax, VA, where we could catch the last day of the event (Sunday Spoilers – haha!) …And Sunday Spoilers we were … Cello, Hooch, and Lager ALL made finals! It was a fun last-minute thing to do, and Margarita got to stay in a hotel (Comfort Inn, University Center) for the very first time, and did wonderfully!

Margarita got to stay in a hotel for the first time (the Comfort Inn, University Center) when we made a spontaneous decision to be “Sunday Spoilers” at the Celebrate Fairfax Festival dock diving competition!

Rita did SO well during her first hotel stay! She made herself right at home, and was very content.

Exhausted !

Dock-Dogs-tired when she didn’t even dock-dog! Hahaha!

I am so proud of this little girl and how well she did!
