My husband is currently going to school. He, like me, went right out of high school and then dropped out. College is so much different than High School. It took us a while to mature enough to go back and get our degrees. Now I sometimes wish I could go back and study [...]

I have a shopping weakness… and it’s related to the dogs. I love to buy dog things and sometimes I just can’t stop myself. And I probably spend too much time looking online for dog things. I have bought Jet a Halloween collar that I’ll blog about when it comes. But quite often [...]

I take the dogs to ’school’ quite a bit. We have private lessons and group lessons and we do a lot of homework, too. We have to do homework because that is where most of the learning takes place. We get an overview in class, and then we go home and work at home. [...]

I love doing dog sports… flyball, agility, obedience.. and I want to try others such as go to ground (after i get a Farmdog lol), and other things. And I’d love to have more endurance. As I write this, I actually have Mono, the test came back and so I feel like I [...]

Ugh.. have you done your Christmas shopping yet? I have not. I’ve bought like one thing, online, and I have to go buy more. But hopefully I’ll be getting that done next weekend. If I want to buy online I’m going to have to get going, since shipping takes a while! And I [...]

So… I haven’t been posting in a couple of days, instead I’ve been napping, cleaning the kitchen a little bit, doing some dog training, and kinda goofing off. Well, relaxing goofing off really. Which I need more of, and I don’t get enough of, and so I’m going to get some!
And did you know [...]

Even though I’m a bit burned out on my dogs sports, I still love doing them, and so do the dogs. I want to train more… trial less, and that is my plan for the next while. Through the winter i hope to get Tatum and Muffit on the flyball box, and doing jumps. [...]

You know, I have said for four (or has it been five?) years now, ever since I started doing agility, that we need to have holodecks like in Star Trek where we can practice in an authentic competition environment. I would so love that. Train there, work through all the distractions… but maybe [...]

I’m Lovin’ my dogs. And I’m really having a great time blogging about them! In fact, of all my six blogs (yeah I think it’s up to six now) this one is my favorite one to update and keep on top of. And in order to blog when I want and have a [...]

Well, what else would my dream job be? I love working with dogs. And I would love to do it full time. working with the people would be harder, I’m sure, than the dogs. But I hope I can develop the observational skills I know are so critical.
I made this little video.. [...]
