Missed

Ferris is looking for you. I think he misses you more than any of the other dogs. Be prepared to get mobbed when you come home whenever it is that you will be back.

Shannon is doing nicely, but it sure would have been very so much nicer if things had worked out so that you could have been here to help with her training and Yuliya's training. That's right, Brandy's owner is signing on as an adult apprentice. Of course she is already ahead of Shannon since she has put in a very hard 3 months getting Brandy into some sort of decent shape.

Major complaint to you; when are you going to learn how to spell and punctuate? Your entries are down right painful to read. Just be thankful I'm not one of your profs, cause if I were, all your papers would come back to you bleeding to death from the attack of the red pencil. See there are these little, yet really big problems with things like, did you mean 'our or are'; 'there or their or they're'; 'were or we're'? And I didn't even think about the lack of little items such as comma's and assorted other nuisance marks called punctuation. Think I'll get you a copy of "Eats shoots and leaves" and plan on quizzing you on each chapter.

Think about the difference in meaning between "Eats shoots and leaves" and Eats, shoots, and leaves". The addition of two commas totally changes the meaning of the four words forming the sentence.

Lecture over, now I do feel better. Remember Susan and Eppy? Remember I asked her to b ring her grandson with her? Well, she is continuing to bring him and since he is being homed schooled, I get to start another really young trainer. Right now his job call for him to show up here on Mondays and Fridays with his bike and scooter. He spends his time climbing the trees, riding his bike right around and through were we are training, plus throwing walnuts over the fence and doing the always and ever present job of scooping poop. Oh, and she is bringing him and his scooter to class on Thursday evenings.

Got a new dumbbell that fits Ellie. We are going to start teaching her to retrieve and plan on videoing the process. Remember Sanity's puppy dumbbell? Well just for fun Sam now has Rugby retrieving it. I'll try and get some shots of him doing it on Thursday evening. Maybe will have Sanity retrieve Rugby's dumbbell, just for grins and giggles.

Miss you much.
