The doggy playground - 1 acre. Donated by a loving individual.
I broke my promise!
I know, I told you the postings would come daily, but alas… training is grueling. This is not your average “fluffy sit, down, yes yes… atta girl” Actually, I let someone borrow my laptop.
I have concluded our training is beyond veterinary school 101 – 501. Today we have learned what resistance is, how dogs demonstrate it, what my emotional state should be when I give a correction, timing of corrections and what a set-up is. But, it’s very fun and an interactive environment.
Speaking of environment, we had another day of temperatures in the low 80’s – beautiful.
Now finally.. a PICTURE! Scroll below and then go about your way. JUST KIDDING! I have my dog but I’m unable to reveal her name and breed. You will have to wait until Friday. Until then, please enjoy the photos.
Random Tidbits…
- We do not have cable TV at home; I have total access to the “dish network” here. I’m constantly reminded how trashy television is. First of all, why do we need the oprah winfrey network? I don’t like Dr. Phil 24/7. ESPN, ABC, NBC, Comcast suits me well. I settled with game 6 of the Stanley cup playoffs. Boston Vs. Vancouver. Hockey is incredibly gruesome. 27 seconds into the game a player was checked into the boards and fractured his vertebrae.
- The fruit is fresh off the local farms. SO DARN GOOD. Strawberries, strawberries, strawberries.. someone please make me shortcake!
- One of the instructors, Ken, is an avid biker and runner. He has incredibly big calves.
- I would live in California. Not sure about Alicia.
- I really miss my family!
