I wanted to share this picture of Gracie that was taken at Goldstock Camp.

Goldstock Camp is a weekend long celebration of dogs as well as a fundraiser for Golden Rescues.

Goldstock is held every Labor Day weekend in the Poconos. It is held at a children's camp, and families stay in cabins with their dogs.  There are all kinds of activities including dock diving into a lake.

This was our first time there, and there were about 300 other Goldens and their families.

I thought this picture was really cute. Gracie was 10 weeks old.

Here is the link to the photographer's fiicker account with some more great Goldstock pics.

Gracie was one of 2 Tripawds there.  | Gracie |Image Enlarger

I am providing the link to give credit to the photographer.

Gracie was having trouble learning to walk with a regular collar. She didn't realize she was attached to a leash, and kept falling over sideways. She wasn't big enough for a Ruff Wear harness ,  so I got her the little pink harness you see in the picture. She is doing much better with that and can now walk just fine on a leash. My husband calls this little pink harness her training bra LOL.

My sweet golden Mackenzie.  She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2  although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home.  She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009.  She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes.  I love you Mackenzie!

Gracie is a sweet heart!  She is just beautiful and what a great photo.  I'm so glad she's adjusting to the training bra - it looks really cute on her.

OMGosh - If you want the definition of adorable cuddly cuteness - you just take one look at Gracie!! Isn't that the sweetest picture? 300 goldens in one place, I don't know if I could stand all the cuteness.

OMD!  She is so cute!!! I just want to kiss her nose!  And I laughed at your husband's comment - that was pretty funny!

Holly joined the world of tripawds on 12/29/2009. She has a big little sister, Zuzu, who idolizes Holly and tries to make all of her toys into tripawds in Holly's honor. And she's enjoying life one hop at a time!
