While the
hounds enjoy the snow, they also welcome constant access to
heated indoor kennel. They come in and out at will, and
spend many hours outside. |
|
They always
come in for a nice, toasty snooze after spending a time outdoors
romping in the snow. |

Topsfield in the
Spring |
|
|
|
|

|
|
Topsfield in the
spring is a beautiful site, especially after a long, cold
winter. All of us, including the hounds enjoy spending
lots of time outdoors. |
|
The Basset
Hound puppies especially
like outings with Claudia. |

Travel to the
shows in the spring is a little simpler, as we can bring either
the Motorhome or the Born Free & Travel Trailer. The dogs
have access to air conditioning to give relief from the heat,
and enjoy their travels to the shows. |

Training, Trophy and Play
Room |
|
The training, trophy and play
room is a place where our hounds spend time with our Topsfield Family.
The floors are matted for training and there is a permanent ramp in
front of mirrors which gives us a chance to see how the dogs look.
This room gives us a great place to work with the dogs, especially in the
winter.

The couch is a
great place to relax (usually, it's the dogs on the
couch not as pictured below with Bryan & Claudia).
For playtime, the large toy box filled with the dogs favorite
toys and bones always provides items for entertainment. It's a wonderful place to
simply enjoy the hounds and let them enjoy
themselves. |

In addition
to having the space to train and relax, the
room also gives us the space to do fun, casual puppy photos,
and no, the puppy pictured below didn't get to drink the beer! |
