Camping Dog

Over Labor Day weekend my family and some of our friends from California all went camping at this awesome campground called Walker River Resort. It is very pet friendly and accommodates everyone. There is a pool/hot tub, dirt bike riding, hiking, shooting, golfing, and the river! It is a great place for the entire family there should be something for everyone!

We have been going there for the past 4 years a few times each summer, but I have not taken a Guide Dog Puppy with me, I always found puppy sitters for them. This time I decided I would like to take Ryder and give him all the experiences they had to offer. He did way better than I expected. He now knows he has hormones so every time we passed a dog or he saw/heard a dog he would do the annoying whine and after a few times of getting really good corrections and using the food protocall, he was very good!

We went on a lot of hikes, he loved swimming, & he was not so impressed with sleeping in a tent with me, but he got over himself. Lol.
I think this sign is funny, dogs are totally allowed. They are all over the campground so I am assuming they don't want the dogs doing their business on the grass, therefor the signs.

I have not said much about Corona on this blog, but he is doing well he is still very young in the brain (even though he is 10 months old) but he has come a long way. So this is Corona & Ryder sleeping after a long hike and play in the river.
I love this picture, it looks like they are SO aggressive but they are really just playing in the river and cooling off.

One last picture before we had to leave and head home and get ready for school. I was really impressed with how well he did and I hope he can go camping again before he gets recalled.

Have a good week everyone!
Katlynn & Ryder

P.S. I am pretty sure I will be attending the Sacramento Fun Day, so if anyone is planning to going please let me know! Maybe we can meet up and say hi!
