Graduation & Fun

Spicy had her last class of her 1st round of obedience. It was a fun night but there is a reason why they say LEAVE YOUR TREAT in your bag vs. in your hand and this is it. She grabbed the treat and kept heeling after and until I showed the photo to Nathan he hadn't a clue she grabbed a piece of the treat as it was so seamless.

She's trouble. heh

She got a ribbon last night and won a prize for getting so many dog bones from all these games we played. We were hoping Frannie would beat us but we know all the tricks like getting one to hold a down from musical mats by plying with treats. Frannie did amazing too and ran faster than Spice. Spice tends to prance and hop and Frannie runs like the wind.

Before class Spice had a bath and then suddenly she had blood on her paws and on her beard. That mommy of hers was worried and checking all parts of her and then realized Spice has teeth dropping and I bet all her siblings and half siblings from this crew do too. Happy chewing. Tell your mom and dad to give you some cool soothers and if you are not eating well, this too will pass.

The Teaka heads to her forever home tomorrow to join her half sibling Dash. They are going to have a grand time together. I just feel it. They are both so full of life.

Mommy also vacates the house for the weekend tomorrow so Nathan is it till Sunday or Monday. We shall see how he juggles it all. Me, I will be soaking in all this genetic data, sipping gin and tonics and doing nothing.

Seeing I got most of the dogs washed it should be a piece of cake for Nathan but then again, maybe not. Will he love me on Sunday? Time will tell. Yvonne says if Nathan doesn't want to come get me, I can return on Monday Oh boy...

Congratulations to Spice and Frannie on their graduation!
Great action picture and telling us what was happening in this photo. Is Spice destined for agility?

Enjoy your seminar on the weekend, and we hope Nathan still has hair left when you return...LOL!
