Schmavitz is 8!

Our little poodle is 8 today!  One of Schmavitz’s favorite things to do is go for rides in the car.  Boy was he in luck today, as we were on a road trip!  After work last night, we drove up to Grand Junction as Jenny needed to get some work done there today.  Once Jenny was finally done making the rounds we hit the road and started making our way towards Reno.

Our nephew, Jake, is graduating this weekend and we decided we wanted to bring all the pups…thus the road trip.  It was a really pretty drive through Utah, and since both of us come from a desert, we can appreciate the beauty of Nevada too.  Schmav was in heaven!  We stopped at two dog parks; one in Sandy, UT and the other in Winnemucca, NV.  Actually, in Winnemucca we just stopped at an elementary school — fenced in soccer field, woo hoo!  The dog park in UT was awesome though — if you are ever driving through it’s very convenient to the highway (300 East 9980 South, Sandy, UT 84070.)

Schmav celebrated with some vanilla ice cream and he got a few new toys.  Pretty perfect day in the eyes of our sweet poodle!
