Reno & Lake Tahoe

Where do we start? This has been a fun filled weekend! On Friday we drove from Sacramento to Reno, which takes about 2 hours. Battier is a great traveler and just sleeps in the back the entire way.
When we arrived in Reno we took everything up to the condo that we needed and then we met up with friends at the Brew Fest. It was almost over by the time we arrived, but Battier did very well walking around the crowds, bands and  vendors. 
The streets were blocked off by the Eldorado in downtown Reno for the event. 
It was pretty windy as you can see Battier's ears blowing in the wind. Next stop was to the Reno Aces baseball game, this is Minor league baseball and it was pretty fun. 
People loved meeting Battier and learning about CCI. I try to make time to share information about the organization when I can, you never know who might be interested in puppy raising or maybe know of someone that would like to apy for a dog. 
Someone had dropped popcorn by us. Battier didn't even look at it. Before I too this picture she was sleeping with popcorn all over her back.  

On Saturday we drove to Lake Tahoe, it's about an hour from Reno. Battier got to swim in the beautiful lake! 
The water is pretty cold so I like to have the puppies wear life jackets just in case. 
We stayed at the lake for about 3 hours. It was a very beautiful day. Battier definitely had fun swimming! I have more photos from my Nikon that'll post soon. 

After the lake we drove back to Reno. Battier was pretty tired on the way home. She fell asleep with her head up, I wish I could have gotten a picture. Battier relaxed in the condo before another busy night. 

We went to a casino and Battier did very well with all the sights and sounds. After that we went to see a movie, Battier's first in the theater! It was the new Tom Cruise movie, The Edge of Tomorrow. Battier slept the entire time. After the movie we went to get sushi on the river front. Battier is definitely a great puppy! 

Overall we've had a lot of great experiences this weekend. 

Sunday started out with a long walk by the river that runs through downtown Reno. It was a beautiful day. Battier saw a lot of different types of dogs, people on skateboards, kids playing in the river and a lot different things. Downtown is a great place to train a puppy! Battier does very well with her "hurry" on cement, she'll go whenever I tell her to.
Practicing up along with some other commands. 

Checking out the Truckee river. 


We walked around the river for a second time! It's just such a nice day out. 
After the walk we went to Target. A great place for training. I worked on some unders with Battier.


Time to relax a little. Watching the World Cup. Go USA!!
