4 years have flown by...

This has been an amazing weekend. Great weather, great food, great people and last, but not least, a celebration today for our lovely brown boy Freddie for his birthday. I can hardly believe that he is already 4 years old! Where does the time go??

Almost 3 years old winning 2nd place in trial (Fox) in Italy
It seems like just yesterday that we were driving 6 hours to Paris in anticipation to pick up this little guy:
Adorable, no?
                                 
He changed our lives forever and with this little brown dog, we caught the "dackel bug." Freddie is a wonderful companion, loves just about everyone he meets-including kids-, an all too good watchdog, and a great working dog. He may not have Baxter beat in titles in front of his name, but he has the working trials to make up for it! He's excellent on fox and we hope to work him under the ground here in Sweden as well, though this time on badger.

Since it was close to 18C (~65F) today, Simon and the boys took a morning stroll on the beach while I was getting brunch ready, followed by an afternoon walk through the forest. Now there are two tired dachshunds in my living room as Simon and I relax, enjoying the rest of our Easter Sunday.


Happy 4th Birthday Freddie and Happy Easter to all of our readers!
