Rocky Mountain Roundup

The Teton Valley, Driggs Idaho, provided a beautiful setting for the 2004 Roundup.  It was a great opportunity to meet some of the wonderful Spinoni and their owners from the western part of the county. The weather was perfect as you can see from the photos below. A cool, clear mountain stream provided a nice dip for the Spins to cool off in the afternoon, when the temperature climbed into the upper 80's! The best part was there were no mosquitoes! All the folks from Wisconsin could really appreciate that! The dogs really enjoyed the company of other Spinoni; they even accepted the little St. Bernard puppy who showed up. 

"The food was terrific! From western BBQ beef to Diana's homemade lasagna! A special thanks to all the people who helped pull this together! The grounds had a nice Western touch thanks to Barbara. The grooming demo, hunt demo and agility demos were interesting and informative.  Thanks to those folks for imparting their wisdom and experience. " Mike & Marge

"We would like to offer a special thank you to all of those kind friends (& their fur covered companions) who helped make the 4th Annual Rocky Mountain Grouse Rouster's Round up possible. We could not have done it alone.
For those who could not make it, you're invited next year to share in the fun filled events. We had a full day of fun in the sun. It started with a informative talk & demonstration on the Spinone standard and grooming. Next came another talk on basic training, hunt training and a short hunting demonstration with a Spinone & German Wirehair. Next came a fabulous meal consisting of lasagna, Beef brisket with Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ, potato salad, fruit & vegetable plate and much more. Followed by an Agility lesson & demonstration moving into the evening with the good old cowboy camp fire. Again thank you for all the help. With out you it would not have been possible."
