I was reading one of your posts, and I too get asked all the time what he is. When I tell them, they look at me like I have 2 horns coming out of my head. lol lol. I've only met a few who actually know what he is. Roz at the TD in Newcastle also has Standards, as well as a family member from The Candy Cottage. Maybe we could meet up sometime - perhaps the park? Anyways, it's great to know there is another Standard lover close to me. Janet

Wow! I grew up in Sunny Corner! Small village so maybe we have met. I would really like to talk to someone here about grooming etc. Im at my wits end. His hair is 5-6" long and allot of work.

I recently went to the vet up there (on another matter) and was pleasantly surprised. Dexter will be attending her from now on. He is 7 mo now and will soon need to be neutered.

Funny I drive a school bus and today, when the kids and I were leaving Croft Elementary, I seen a vehicle with what looked like a standard in the back. I was tempted to follow them to find a groomer, but I couldnt...lol. Im going to pm you my phone number and perhaps you could call when you have a minute. I would appreciate it. Thks

Thank-you. There are sooo many beautiful places in Canada but there is something really special about New Brunswick. They don't call us the picture province for nothing..lol.
But seriously, I've traveled to almost all of Canada appreciating the beauty of every province. I love the Rockies, and Vancouver. Have family there. Hubby works in Baffin island and Nunavit in northern Quebec, travelling home monthly. Its a harsh life up there but still so beautiful. The pictures are awe inspiring. I hope to see it myself someday.
We are so lucky to live here. And if you are ever to NB please look us up.

I have also been to Vancouver, Calgary, Montreal and to Drumheller, Alberta along with the Canadian Rockies. I would love to see more of the maritimes and the far north.

In the US I have been to California, Hawaii, Washington, Oregon, Florida,Texas, all around the northeast, mid-atlantic/south-atlantic states and the midwest. Alaska and the desert southwest are high on my US travel destinations. Right now Lily and I are in Massachusetts for a weekend of obedience and agility trials. She is a very well traveled dog!

He sure is! I wish I had seen all those states. My daughter was in NY last November. She absolutely loved it. I hope to go back with her next time. Hope to take in a little Broadway at the same time.

I wish I could say that I had been all of those places recently enough for Lily to have been along for all of the ride, but she is in Massachusetts with me this weekend for trials and she has been all around NY, CT, NJ, PA and MD. If you make it to NYC let me know when you are going to be in town. I went to graduate school in the city and would be happy to try to show you around a bit.
