Icelandic Sheepdog Vinlands Kria and her Partner Caitlin

 Here are some great recent photos of Icelandic Sheepdog Vinlands Kria at home, the training building and with Caitlin

Kria was 11.4 lbs at our vet check last week. We learned back feet on the balance disk at agility. Caitlin bought a glow collar because it’s so hard to see her in the dark she blends in.

Kria - The Icelandic Sheepdog - learning agility

 What can I say - Icelandic Sheepdogs love snow and ice and cold. Must be bred in the bone. Not too surprisingly, these recent photos all happened in the last week. 

Kria is really enjoying the extra yardage after we increased the fence length. We doubled the fenced in area! She loved playing in the 4 inches of surprise snow this morning. She especially enjoys eating it.. yum!

Icelandic Sheepdogs Vinlands Birna and Miss Timber

 

Hi Jaime

Here are some recent pics of Birna and Timber...hanging out in the back yard and (Birna) enjoying her new bed! We use a long lead to practise our recalls outside. She is doing a great job with recalls. And Timber is getting more exercise (as am I).... good for all concerned!

Vinlands Birna

Birna is doing great. She is a happy, smart, confident, loving puppy, and she adores Timber-a super role model!

Birna

I have been walking Birna into our little downtown to get her used to people, noises (a train goes by periodically) and all sorts of interesting things/sounds. We are even learning to sit outside our favorite French patisserie...very important!!

Birna

All in all, both Timber and Birna are doing great!!

Birna and Miss Timber

All the best,

Sally and Daniel
