My favorite time of year is coming upon us. I love fall and Sacramento does fall pretty well. Cool mornings, warm days.

I took the morning off and went walking along the American River. 4 miles of prettiness! We saw, I kid you not, a seal in the River. Apparently, he/she comes inland for the fish!
 
Have you see the cabat in the current catalog IRL? The one in black, new light grey and mist.

I saw it today at the boutique and it's pretty awesome.
Yes! It is soooooo Beautiful!!!!

But may I ask our dear experienced BV experts, your thoughts on the narrow fettucce? I have seen even the regular ones broke apart before (after a long time use) ... If it happens on this bag, I will be heartbroken....

Thanks a lot in advance!!!!
 
Yep, look at those feet indeed. Did you get his DNA profile back yet? How much does Rhyn weigh now? Looking more like a German Shepherd/Rotteweiler cross. :p
Yes, got his DNA test results back: He is 25% Norwegian Elkhound, 25% Australian Cattle Dog, 25% Mixed Breed, and the last 25% evenly divided between Collie and German Shepherd.

As of this past Sunday evening, he weighed 21 pounds. He is 14 weeks old day!

The leather doesn't generally just 'break apart'. If you've ever had a chance to look closely at how the leather is woven you'd see that it's actually almost double in thickness to insure that it doesn't. Many many generations of BV owners can attest to the sturdiness of the weave.
