Petting, scratching, and cuddling a dog could be as soothing to the mind and heart as deep meditation and almost as good for the soul as prayer. ~Dean Koontz~

This past weekend Glory, Gambler, Tom, Willow and I attended the 30th year of the Badger Kennel Club WI Dog Fair. We represented the Chesapeake Bay Retriever. Of all the photos I took this is my most favorite one. Gambler did so well again this year at the dog fair. This would mark his 3rd year attending. He was calm and stood like a statue until someone came up to pet him and learn about the breed. By the end of the day he was ready for a nap so this little girl curled up next to him and took a short cat nap. There were many dogs and people walking around the expo center and these two were not phased by it.
