March Madness

While the college basketball season is wrapping up, we are getting ready for the show season to get kicked into high gear. Leslie and Chris have pretty much planned out their schedule through the end of May. Go check it out at www.labradoritekennels.com. This weekend you can find us in York, PA.

If you look at the schedule you will see we will be on the road a lot. That means we will be spending a lot of time in Hercules. For those who don’t know Hercules, or Herc, as we call him, is a 2005 GMC Savannah Box Truck that has been retro-fitted into a show dog luxury sedan. Herc lets me and my friends travel in style to shows, with our chauffeur Leslie or Chris.

Herc as you can tell was an old Penske rental truck, but Leslie and Chris rescued him. They put two air-conditioners, heat alarm, and crates in him to keep us comfortable. Herc’s heat alarm is set up to make sure we stay cool even at the hot outdoor summer shows. The heat alarm can page Chris up to 2 miles away, although he is never that far. Herc even has a futon, or I think that is what Leslie call its. I call it a bed, cause I get to take naps in it while we are at the shows. 

So check back next week to find out how the show went this weekend.
