I HAVE TOLD THE CHINESE MENU STORY MANY TIMES.... BUT FOR ANY NEW COMMERS,HERE IT IS AGAIN.... WE WANTED TO ODRER CHINESE FOOD AFTER MAIL CALL ONE NIGHT AND THE CAMERA AND SOUND WERE STILL ON-- THE MENU WAS NOT IN IT'S USUAL PLACE... WITHIN MINUTES THE PHONE RANG AND A CAMERA PERSON FROM NEW YORK SAID...."IT IS IN YOUR CENTER DESK DRAWER ---- AND IT WAS-- ?AN INVASION OF PRIVACY??? NO... THIS AN ASSET I NEED TO USE MORE OFTEN..... IF I PUT TOMORROW'S DR APT IN THIS DD DO YOU SUPPOSE THE CP'S COULD KEEP TRACK AND BE SURE I GO DOWN THE DRIVEWAY ABOUT 1:30????

I AM TOTALLY ENJOYING THE BOOK SOMEONE SENT YESTERDAY-- PICKING UP BY ROBIN NAGLE-- THE STORY OF NEW YORK'S TRASH-- I AM ONLY ON CHAPTER 3 AND BEEN SHOCKED AND EDUCATED MANY TIMES OVER--- LIKE THE CITY'S TRASH IS SHIPPED AS FAR AWAY AS SOUTH CAROLINA.... I DID KNOW ABOUT THE COAL MINES OF PENNA-- BUT SOUTH CAROLINA????
I HAVE READ SEVERAL OTHER SIMILAR- BOOKS--- GARBOLOGY BEING ONE OF THEM--- NOW THIS ( SO FAR) IS A VERY WELL WRITTEN STUDY BY A WOMAN WHO IS AN ARCHOLOXXXXX WHATEVER WHO WRITES VERY REALISTICALLY.. MAYBE THIS IS THE BOOK ALL HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS SHOULD BE FORCED OT READ. IT CERTAINLY HAS ALOT MORE VALUE THAT THE #$%^&*() I WAS FORCED TO READ... IN LATIN... ABOUT GREEK PEOPLE WITH TWIGS ON THEIR HEADS.
MY FATHER WAS IN THE HEAVY EQUIPMENT BUSINESS-- AND I DON'T KNOW IF HE WAS THE ONE BUT HE SURE GOT IN THE BUSINESS OF SUPPLYING TRACTORS TO "FILL THE SWAMPS IN NEW JERSEY WITH MANHATTAN TRASH..."
THAT WAS BEFORE SWAMPS WERE WORSHIPED LIKE THEY ARE NOW.

MOVING ON

I GET VERY ANNOYED AT THE FACT THAT I ONCE HAD EVERY DOG ON THE PROPERTY KNOWIN G HOW TO USE THE YUPPY PUPPY
NOW IT JUST DOESN'T GET DONE.
WE "HAD A MEETING" TO TRY AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO MOVE 31 PUPS ALONG WITHOUT HAVEING A FACTORY ATMOSPHERE..
THE PLAN "A" IS TO ROTATE PUPS IN DIFFERNT ENVIRONMENTS
THE KITCHEN WITH INTERN FOR YUPPY TRAINING- WITH ME AT MY DESK--
THE GUEST HOUSE FOR VETERAN WITH BEARD COOKIE TRAINING
THE PUPPY HILL WITH A PEN OF CHICKENS TO LEARN TO IGNORE
CAR RIDES SOME JUST AROUND THE BLOCK TO GET RID OF NERVES
MEGAN TRIPS TO THE REAL WORLD - VEST ON...
AND OVERNIGHTS.
THAT IS A GOOD GOAL---SHOULD WORK-- I HATE TO SAY BUT WE WILL HAVE TO KEEP TRACK OF PUPS ON PAPER
I WONDER HOW TO HAVE THE PAPERWORK GO WITHTHE DOG..
PROBLEM IS WE HAVE TOO MANY NO NO NO NO NO NOT TOO MANY DOGS...
BUT TOO MANY TO REMEMBER WHO HAS GONE AS FAR AS LIFTING FOOT IN YUPPY TRAINING
MAYBE EACH "STATION" KEEPS A CLIPBOARD OF PUPPY PROGRESS

CARLENE,
CARLENE,
JUST CAME BACK FROM VOLUNTEERING AT SERVICE DOG PROJECT. MY FIRST TIME SINCE I CAME ACROSS SDP IN "BOOKFACE" BY AN AD FROM EXPLORE IN WHICH THE PICTURE THEY HAD WAS OF SERVICE DOG PROJECT. AS AN ANIMAL LOVER I CLICKED ON IT AND THE "ORCAS" WERE JUST 1 OR 2 WEEKS OLD....AND AS MOST OF CP's FELL IN LOVE WITH THE PUPS.
STARTED READING ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS PURPOSE AND HAVE BEEN A SUPPORTER SINCE. THE CLOSEST ENCOUNTER WITH SDP WAS WHEN I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE PRESENT AT GEORGE'S AWARD CEREMONY AND MEET THE WONDERFUL BURTON FAMILY.
THIS WAS MY SECOND ATTEMPT TO GO AND VOLUNTEER AND THANKFULLY IT WAS POSSIBLE. THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THE COMMENTS OF EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN THERE AND CANNOT WAIT TO BACK, IS GOING YOURSELF. THROUGH THE CAMS WE SEE THE DOGS, FALL IN LOVE WITH THEM, PICK FAVORITES, ENJOY THEIR GOOFINESS AND A MINIMAL ART OF THEIR TRAINING. HOWEVER, BEYOND THE VIEW RANGE OF THE CAMS YOU CANNOT IMAGINE THE ORGANIZATION, WORK, PHYSICAL EFFORT OF EMPLOYEES AND VOLUNTEERS AND THE SCHEDULING NEEDED TO PRODUCE THE EXCELLENCE OF A GEORGE, LYDIA, WENDY, ETHEL AND ALL THE OTHERS THAT ARE CHANGING LIVES. EVEN THE ONES WHO DON'T MAKE THE CUT TO BE SERVICE DOGS, BECOME "PERFECT PETS" BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEY ARE RAISED. IT WAS HARD WORK NO DOUBT, BUT LEFT WITH A GRIN ON MY FACE AND A HUGE SMILE IN MY HEART!!!
MY HAT'S OFF TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN IMPROVING OTHER PEOPLES LIVES.
HUGS TO ALL.........Vanessa

**************
CAMERA PEOPLE DAILY ARE SENDING ME COMMENTS ABOUT WHO TO BREED TO WHO AND WHY.... SO HERE IS A BLOODLINE OF ONE A DAY???
THERE ARE 2 ELEMENTS TO MY CHOICES-- ONE IS HOW MANY GENERATIONS BACK MIGHT THEY HAVE A COMMON ANCESTER... AND WHO HAS DIRECT LINE BACK TO WHAT ANCESTERS
SO.... BENTLEY-- FATHER IS BUMPY WHO IS THUMPER WHO IS MR ADAMS( CANADIAN)AND
MOTHER LINDSAY FROM BITSY WHO IS BMW KENNEL( LONG ISLAND, NY)
BENTLEY'S MOTHER --- OLIVE WHO'S DAD IS BOBBY ( HUNGARIAN---- GOOD DOG)
AND OLIVE'S MOM IS LUNA ( BAILEY'S SISTER) FROM DEAGLE (BELGIUM-- SUPER DOG)
SO TO BREED HIM TO SCARLOTT-- FROM DENMARK-- IS LOVELY--- AND SO ARE THE PUPS... LIKE GEORGE--- MAYBE A LITTLE TALL BUT DARN GOOD. KEPT TONY AS POSSIBLE BREEDER- HE IS SHORTER...
THIS GETS SO SCREWED UP IT MAY NOT GO ANYWHERE BUT FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO LOVE THIS KIND OF THING -- HAVE AT IT.
I WILL TRY AND DO A DOG A DAY???
