As you can see, keeping this blog up to date has not been one of my strong points recently (apologies to Kyria and Terry!) but I'll do my best to remedy the situation :)
Wow! So much has happened lately! I hope all of you have been checking the other awesome blogs-you'll see wonderful accounts of graduation (incredible to say the least) and Jack's most recent fundraiser, the Turkey Trot 5K race (complete with pictures on Jack's blog-thank you Eliot!) I just have to note here that I beat Jason in the 5K race! yahoo! (It doesn't count that he was pushing Fiona in the jogging stroller :)
I am bursting with pride for "my" dogs: WYATT, SOLOMON, CAMDEN, CAYLIE and LILLY. I name these dogs only because they are the ones I have (or will be) working with the most. I can hardly believe they've graduated....the culmination of TONS of hard work, dedication and much love. I am blessed in SO many ways. Having my family come to graduation with me: Jason, Fiona and my mom and dad (who traveled from Ohio) to experience the most rewarding p4p day of the year. Also, getting to see the dogs I've invested myself in so much working with (and being loved by) their families. Terry, Kyria, Heidi and I all know it's a job well done when we see the dogs so bonded to their families, working happily and willingly for them. It is such an incredible privilege to be involved in bringing each dog and family together. I am grateful for each one of my families allowing me to enter into their lives to work with them and their amazing kids while bringing them together with one of our dogs....I absolutely LOVE my job!
