Beautiful pics!! I LOVE the first pic. I can read their minds now...."Something's wrong with this picture. I'm pretty sure we are supposed to be on the other side of this gate!" I had no idea that precision made something like that. We have precision kennels, but I've never seen a round pen for them. Great idea!
I LOVE the wildlife pictures too! We lived in Colorado for 6 years, and I really miss it. It was incredibly beautiful.

Well, LOVE the pics! You dogs are BEAUTIFUL!!! Beautiful family too!

I love those outdoor pens... we have two and as you can see we put them together out in front of the RV so we have a little fenced in yard for camping...so much better than leashed getting tangled all the time!

Thank you!

looks like the dogs had a great time! Luna would go absolutely NUTS if she saw a bunny or deer over a fence. Great pictures!

OMG it was horrible the whiny and crying they did at the bunnies, prairie dogs and deer! It drove me nuts! and walking them with those animals running all over was quite the chore!

I need to try one of those. They don't jump out, even with bunnies around?

If left unsupervised I am sure they would jump out... though they do come in a taller heighst too... mine know better to do it with us around, they are just good at following rules...I would take them for a walk, then put them in there and I would go into the RV to get their breakfast and then come out to give it to them and they wouldn't jump out...

Looks like a great vacation ! While you travel do you see many or any other GSP's ? & do most people know that your pup's are GSP's ?
Nice pic's !

Looks like a fantastic holiday (bye bye summer ) - great photos.  I would love to try one of those cages but do they have any sort of bottom on them? I ask because i'm sure if Keely saw a bunny or duck (scottish campsite wildlife ) we would be witness to a crazy cage running around the campsite - but we get tired of using a tie-out line too - they're a pest!  Looks like you visited some amazing places

no bottom, thats what is great cuz they can still potty while in there.... I think if Keely started to take off after the bunny the sides would collapse on her before being able to have a run away cage, lol!

I have not seen any other GSP's and most people don't approach me to even ask what they are... I guess I put off bad vibes... most people tell me that they think I am a snob till they actually get a chance to know me, lol! and of course while walking them both by myself with all the wildlife I am sure I looked like an out of control mess... I do have people ask on occasion if I have hunted with them so I figure they know the breed or at least have an idea...

The other thing that is funny is it is a 50/50 split they either say oh the white one is so pretty or wow the speckled one is gorgeous!

Sounds and looks like you had a great vacation. Loved all the pictures of the dogs and the
surroundings. Your furkids are very nice looking GSP's. There sure was the wildlife around to
give them a good tease. ;-) I swear my Lucy would have done her best to try and climb out
of the pen.

Great pictures!! Brave to camp with 2 dogs. You are well prepared with portable fences and long leashes for the water. So much energy to share with 2 boys and 2 sons to help. Sounds like you had a great family fun vacation.


Marie and Rocky, a tall, high energy GSP
