I jump for joy!!!!!
Times are tough, aren't they?
The news is relentlessly grim: jobs, economy, terrorism, wars, and the environment. It's been getting so bad that I grimaced all through December when I heard the words, "tis the season to be jolly".
My peeps are hunkered down, paring down to basics, gettin' real and living simply. I am very proud of them. They hardly complain even though Ms. A. could use a new pair of sneakers and Mr. A. hasn't seen a t-bone in a long while. The cold hard realization of just how much they DOhave makes them forge ahead, face the challenges and look at the bright side—steaks are artery cloggers and the sneakers still have treads.
Luckily for me, there has been no change in Mr. Fenway's lifestyle. That's where they draw the line. I get my fresh meat, liver, oils, special shampoos, conditioners, classes, vet visits and trial entries paid for in full. But the fact of the matter is that just being with them and playing is plenty good enough for me. We have a tight little family in Fenway Land and an endless supply of love.
Isn't that what it's all about anyway?
Ready to launch like an arrow!
I can jump and still keep my eye on Frisbee!
Now that's multi-tasking...
In flight!
I've got clearance!
I'm soaring above the jumps!
This is the best way to have fun!

Wow, awesome jumps Fenway!
Mom is saving a lot on herself too, but like your Mom, she doesn't really save on me (which I am very thankful for...I love my fresh meat too!)
Can't wait to see you in action this year! *grins* Hope you have a great year ahead!

Great jumps Fenway!!! Beautiful action pictures. My mom takes care of me and those cats of hers too and she never has much for herself but we are a happy group. I'm trying to eat my mom out of her budget with Busy Bones but she has a limit on them now since I seem to be getting a little overweight in this bad weather. Several zoomies around the backyard isn't quite enough exercise vs. the food intake or so she says!! Love, Hollydog
Hi, Fenway!
Yes. My mom does the same thing. She almost never spends any money on her but if we talk about me.... that is another story!
She does not earn a lot of money so she says she works just to pay for my needs!
But... the best thing she does for me is to spend all her free time with me! and I love that!
I wish you and your family the best this 2010!
Kisses and hugs

Happy New Year to you Fenway and all at home!!
2009 has been a really tough (read: bad) year in many aspects, and we can only hope that 2010 is a better year for all.
Your joy is their joy, Fenway! We have also seen #1 pare down, but never on anything that makes our lives healthy, fun and comfortable! We're very lucky, aren't we?
Woofs,
Tommy (and the rest of the Poupounette Gang)
We are just loving your action shots, Fenway! Do your hoomans shovel away the snow so you can have grass for your jumps?
Love ya lots
Maggie and MItch
Woof! Woof! back from my long holiday break. Happy New Year! Hope you guys had a great holiday ... I see from your older post you had some delish cookies, Oh oh!!! Things/Life in general might be tough but it is great to JUMP for Joy and celebrate the New Year! Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
Go Fenway!
Our humans actually take more care over our diet etc than they do their own... so we totally understand how they put you first..hehe
We hope you all have a great 2010!
Happy New Year to you Fenway!
So sorry about the delayed response.. mom's been a bit lapsed on commenting. You are looking good on that agility course. Always a star! Don't forget to enter Mango Minster's contest!
Good to hear from you!

Of course you have all the love Fenway! Love your photos. Check out my blog for a Train Your Dog Photo Contest.
Your friends,

PL2 has to save on herself because she spends all they have on us!! he hee( that is how it should be anyway) we can't BELEIVE how high you go!!!!! Lvoe A+A
You have serious skills Fenway! And it sounds like you have a great arrangement despite the economy. :)
Hi Fenway,
I like your jumps :) Hope things get better soon for your Mom and Dad. The humans all seem to be in the same boat. I don't know what that means, I just heard them talking about it.
By the way, it sounds like you eat a raw diet? Is that true? My Duchess is studying that now so she can switch us to raw.
Kisses,
