You can look at the rest, but come back for the best!



I was raised on a ranch in Florence, South Dakota. My family raised Paint and Quarter horses for performance events in Team Roping, Cutting, Barrel Racing, Calf Roping. My father trained cutting horses and competed in NCHA shows, My Brother rode Saddle Broncs, and was a header for Team Roping. I competed in Barrels, Poles, Team, and Breakaway Roping, and both Shane and I competed in The Cutting. My mother was the support of our family, always with video camera In hand. She and dad hauled my brother Shane and I up and down the road every weekend to Rodeo after Rodeo.
I still compete today, mostly with just hauling to The big barrel races. I love this sport, and wouldn't Trade anything in the world for it. You won't ever Know what true excitement is until you've ridden a Fast horse. This is the life I have chosen, and it has Rewarded me greatly. Growing up on the ranch was The greatest opportunity a person could have. Living In Gods country, being taught morals, ethics, and Hard Work.
I met my husband, Clay in 2002
We were blessed with twins in January 2005
A boy and a girl, (Shaelyn and Sloan)
They love Puppies and Horses

Just a Dog
From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a dog," or, "that's a lot of money for just a dog." They don't understand the distance traveled, the time spent, or the costs involved for "just a dog."
Some of my proudest moments have come about with "just a dog." Many hours have passed and my only company was "just a dog," but I did not once feel slighted.
Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by "just a dog," and in those days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a dog" gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day.
If you, too, think it's "just a dog," then you will probably understand phases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise." "Just a dog" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure unbridled joy. "Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better person.
Because of "just a dog" I will rise early, take long walks and look longingly to the future. So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a dog" but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past, and the pure joy of the moment.
"Just a dog" brings out what's good in me and diverts my thoughts away from myself and the worries of the day.
I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just a dog" but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a human."
So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog." just smile, because they "just don't understand."
