Josephine County Fair Grants Pass, Oregon |

This day was a little on the long side, about 14 hours from bed back to bed... The Jo-Co Fair was 2.5 hours north of us, (Alex & Me)... 2.5 + 2.5 = 5 hours That leaves about 8 hours to walk around the fair waiting for the events to start and about one hour to get a little lost on the way home...Alex the Service Dog did fantastic, I really don't know how or why he puts up with me, the only thing that I can think of is that thing called
|

< This is what the Service Dogger sees as they try to participate in Life... As it turned out this was the only Enemy of the day...We met hundreds of good people...We even met lots of Doberman Lovers... |

^ This police officer was working his dog ^ way out in the field, my camera was at ten power yet Alex was watching (without binoculars) this dog attack the guy in the bite suit with great interest... We saw them later and closer Alex minded his manners and didn't make a sound, You could tell that he was watching though...

^ Alex led the way out off leash ^ It was easier and safer that way... He knew where to go and keep looking back for me and I would just point... We pasted a deputy at the bottom... No Problem :-) |
