BIG trouble

Hello young humans,

Now that I have posted pictures of Blueline, he is busy studying up on Jay Feely's pro kicking statistics. That leaves me time to work on my Blog. As the race gets closer, I get a lot more mail these days. Lots more people from ALL OVER look at the website and my dog blog. I hope many of them are cute chicks.

You just won't believe the letter I got today. I want you all to see what I have to deal with being a race reporter. Here it is:

Dear Breakaway,

First let me say that I have the Utt-er moooo-st respect for those dogs that try to race and report on the race. With that said, I would like to have the opportunity to BEEF up the race reporting and also enter a team of BEEFed. I think it's time to have a team with some real mooooomeat on their bones pulling first acrossed the finish line instead of those scrawny little mutts that have been. You'll find pictures of moooooo-meeeee and moooooooooo-my team attached. Feel free to include them as possible entries on your web site. Of course, the First place prize would have to change for us to enter along with the senior reporter. You should also know that I pictured alone would be leading the rest of the pictured team. You may not want to let them dogs see our pictures because we are very intimidating to them scrawning little guys, hahaha-Moooooooo.

Browny & the Gang

As if that wasn't bad enough, here is a picture of Browny's team:

If any of you own a herding dog like a collie or an australian shepherd, I wish you would have them email me. Some of these letters are just plain ridiculous! What do you think he means, "the race reporter would have to change!?!"

Ahem, now back to the important stuff: As you know, all the races are full. We have LOTS of new dog teams (not bovine either) coming in for the races for the first time this year. These dogs will be nervous and trying their best to please their mushers. As a reminder, DO NOT bring your pets to the races. Racing dogs need to concentrate on their job, just like you have to concentrate when you are in school.

I want to especially welcome all the new dog teams to the races this year. Do you know that we have a team coming up here from Tennessee to run in the Jack Pine 30? They are malamutes also and their musher said everyone will know they are coming when he yells "gee-y'all, haw-y'all". Reminds me of the movie about the Jamaican Bobsled Team in the Olympics. Be sure and look this team up if you get to watch the Jack Pine 30 this year and welcome them.

Best of luck to all the new teams and see you soon at race headquarters in the Holiday Inn of Marquette.

Love,

Breakaway
