This post is to update some news I posted about back in September. The episode of Across Indiana (WFYI/Indianapolis PBS 20) has aired. The segment can be seen online here. It is the segment titled “Travels with Darby.”

About a week ago I was contacted by Daniele at Petable-Portraits.com regarding Daniele doing a portrait of one of my dogs. Since I have a ton of pictures of Beau, and Ranger isn’t done turning into a little dog yet (he’s going through some crazy growth spurts), I chose Beau as the subject of the…
Today I got to briefly meet a very cool Cowboy, Mr. John Wayne Haynes. He is traveling from his home in Michigan to New Mexico to visit his family.

Ranger is taking to the clicker very well and I can see…
Last night I was visited by some friends (Carlye and Craig from Cross Check Catahoulas). They left a new little friend at my house, a littermate to their own little girl “J Cross’ Ammunition”. J Cross’ Currahee–a.k.a. “Ranger”.
