baby things-- #1 DR.POL IS ADAMATE ABOUT THESE ARE NOT BABIES... THEY ARE PUPPIES AND FOALS #2--- lanie is doing fine... likes to have company-- she is not totally huge... but the last few days is usally when theY pack it on... and she is a big dog to hide babies in theere..
#3--- janine has 2 about to foal and would like to bring them here and swap for "barbie and friend" -- i said pk... bpth barbie aqnd friend have been peopleized and should do ok... that gives us 2 pregos to watch over.. i said ok because i think all you camera people are becoming baby watchers- and for us to deal is probably the best thing to offer these 2 pregos-- keeping in mind... we assume pregnant.... we can baRRICADE THE FRONT OF THAT STALL WITH AN OUTSIDE AREA-- AND JUST MAKE ALL THE REST GO UP THE HILL AND AROUND TO GET TO THE HAY PILE-- I COULD BUY ANOTHER GATE AND TAKJE THE WALL DOWN BETWEEN THE STALLS... I HAVE BEEN RESISTING THAT JUST IN CASE WE INHERIT A MISERABLE UNFRIENDLY HORSE... I SUPPOSE THE TANNER SHED WOULD COVER THAT.. LET ME THINK.....

SPEAKING OF PREGNANT MARES... TO FINISH YESTERDAYS TOPIC OF PREGNANT MARES URINE ( PREMARIN)
which is processed by pfizer as premarin-- i do know a little about the "waste product" which is the foals-- i have seen bunches of 20 or so-- some only days old- shuffled into an auction ring in new hampshire having come from the urine farms in canada...
i do believe there is a generic product--- but also... if pregnant mares throw this in thier urine, how about pregnant women?? ... most of whom could easily and happily bottle their urine and sell it to pfizter. has anyone asked the question of pfizter? maybe we should???

Dear Ms. White and Service Dog Project staff and trainers,
I would like to take the opportunity to say Thank You to Ms. White, and Service Dog Project for being my biggest inspiration.
When training my 6th Great Dane I started to need a Service Dog for heavy mobility work. I was paralyzed in 2001 had back surgery so I could walk but have spinal cord damage and get nerve impingement and cant feel my legs and I fall. I have server Psoriatic arthritis throughout my body which is causing joints to fuse, loosing use of my fingers hands and wrists feet and ankles. my spine is now full of arthritic degeneration. as a result I fall and hurt myself badly several times, was almost run over by a truck when I fell in the road and couldn't move to get up. My Doctors said time for a wheel chair again. I said no way. the town I live in is a small rural town in Hinton Alberta Canada. there are no elevators everything is 2 and 3 floor walk ups so wheelchairs don't work well here nor do walkers. and in the deep snows we get in winter they are dangerous. so I said Service Dog. my Doctors supported me in this.
Service Dog Project gave me the inspiration and support to train Vincent as my mobility Service Dog. Vincent is now 19 mos old, and just passed his Govt. of Alberta Service Dog Public Access Certification test and is now an officially certified Mobility Service Dog.
I had to take the opportunity to thank all of you for your love, support, training tips and suggestions to help get us thru some very dark and difficult times in training. I couldn't have done it without all of you...
My sincere love and thanks,
Jane Dresden and Vincent
