Hiking tour on August 27th, 2011

For the sixth time we invited owners of House-Barrett dogs to join us on a hiking tour

This time we hiked in the valley of the Rhine River in St. Goar

The weather was not too good in the morning, but yet almost all the families, who had registred for this trip did make it. This time we had the largest group, about 47 people and 27 beautiful House-Barrett dogs. Later on during the day the weather dig get better and at times the sun was shining

Again families joined us from all over Germany and other countries.

We think, that everybody loved this hike. The hike only was about 6 miles long, not too long, so everybody were able to make this trip easily.

We want to thank all the families who joined us to make this wonderful day happen.

Next year we for sure will plan another tour. We do have plans to make this tour in September and again Hundemama will think of something very nice. At the beginning of next year we will announce the day when this hike in 2012 will take place.

We wish everybody the very best for the future
