Last Thursday we headed to the city of Regina!<\/p>\n

Some of you may remember Shaylah’s note a while back (which I can’t seem to find the photo for anywhere in the archives!) which included her plea for a puppy.<\/p>\n

Shaylah has wanted a puppy for MANY years now. She’s waited patiently (some times lol)<\/em> for a long time now and was finally rewarded for her patience last week.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meet Bentley.
\nHe’s 3\/4 Corgi, 1\/4 Chihuahua!<\/p>\n

Yes, a rather odd mix, however it’s a perfect mix for Shaylah! She really wanted a Corgi, but I felt a full grown Corgi was a bit too big for her. She wants it to sleep with her, and be an indoor dog, but living on a farm means an indoor dog needs LOTS of baths! A pure bred Corgi can get really heavy! Since she’s only 12, I felt this breed mix created the perfect sized Corgi for Shaylah!<\/p>\n

\"It's<\/a><\/p>\n

He’s pretty funny, and cute!<\/p>\n

He definitely looks ALL Corgi. It should be interesting to see just how big he grows to be. His breeder is expecting him to be about 16 pounds full grown. I’m hoping she’s right. Most of our dogs have all gone ‘oversized’, except for my runt of a Chihuahua, Teagan, who tips the scales at 2 pounds, 7 ounces!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On our way to Regina we had to stop by the horse facility that boarded our 5 horses while we were busy putting up fences the first week we were here.<\/p>\n

This drive took us through Fort Qu’Appelle.<\/p>\n

When most people think of Saskatchewan, they imagine completely flat, barren, land.
\nHowever, as we’ve been discovering, there’s actually a lot more to see in Saskatchewan then most realize.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And as we’ve been discovering, even the flat ‘barren’ land in these parts isn’t so ‘barren’ after all!<\/p>\n
