Not much happening on the Abby front, she has not been in any serious trouble in a while. We went on our annual October ride last weekend to get apples; it’s about a 5-hour ride round trip, and of course we took the dogs with us.  It was a beautiful weekend, and the dogs loved the ride.  Abby loves to stick her head out the window, her long black ears flap in the wind, smelling all the apple trees, pear trees, just enjoying life. Maggie on the other hand, just lays down in the back seat, and pretty much just sleeps until we come to a stop, then she sticks her head out the window. 

Its amazing to me how many people will come up to us and ask if Abby is a standard poodle, I guess you just don’t see them around that much.
