Thought you guys might get a kick out of a short video of Sydney playing with her new favorite toy - the Kong! There's a little cheesy flavored treat at the bottom, and she will spend as much time as needed to get to it!

The hunt is on right now to find a boarding kennel for the Christmas holiday. Janine and I are going to be traveling to California (both the bay area and Tahoe), and the last thing Sydney needs is the stress of air travel. The trick is finding a kennel with room - most places filled up 6-12 months ago and have multi-page waiting lists. Luckily I've been able to find 3 out of the dozen I've called that do have space, but we need to check them out first before we trust them with our pup.

Sorry if the blog is getting a little too puppy oriented right now, but she's a definite source of bloggable goodness. *melt* :-)
