WHAT ARE OUR STATS?????? OUR DOGS ARE TERRIFFIC-- NO PROBLEM THERE.... .... OK HOW DO WE COMPARE WITH TEH "BIGGIES"?
CANINE COMPANIOON FOR INDEPENDENCE (CCI) PUTS OUT 366 DOGS A YEAR -- WITH AN INCOME OF 22 MILLION $$ AND A STAFF OF 255--- SO THE INCOME PER DOG IS $60,500 WITH 1.4 DOGS PER STAFF....
WE PUT OUT 22 DOGS PER YEAR WITH AN INCOME OF $600,000 AND STAFF OF 14 OR $27,000 PER DOG AND 1.5 DOGS PER STAFF.
THE BIGGIE IN NEW ENGLAND AND TEH OLD TIMER IS NEADS-- THEY PUT OUT 37 DOGS PER YEAR WITH INCOME OF 2.3 MILLION -- STAFF OF 41 -- $62.600 PER DOG AND .9 DOGS PER STAFF.. SO WE ARE NOT DOING BADLY....
THEIR CEO'S MAKE $350,000 AND I FEEL GUILTY WHEN SDP PAYS FOR VOLUNTEERS S DINNER AND I EAT SOME MYSELF.

BEING AFFILIAted with ASSISTANCE DOGS INTERNATIONAL IS CRITICAL-- especially FOR OUR VETERANS WHO'S DOGS HAVE VET INSURANCE COVERAGE AS LONG AS WE ARE ACCREDITED BY ADI.
NOW THE BAD PART.... WE ARE DUE TO BE RE- ACCREDITED IN 2020 ( EVERY 5 YEARS)- AND THERE IS AN ADI INSPE3CTOR GUY FROM AUSTRALIA WHO WANTS TO INSPECT US EARLIER.... MAYBE TO FIND OUT HOW WE OPERATE SO EFFICIENTLY WITH SUCH TERRIFFIC DOGS....
I AM DELIGHTED TO SHARE OUR INFORMATION AND METHODS..... HOWEVER.....
THEY HAVE GIVEN US A LIST OF CRAPOLA-- STUFF TO DO...AND SEND TO HIM BEFORE HE COMES-- LAST TIME WE DID THIS... BY ACTUAL COUNT... WE WENT THRU 5 CASES/REAMS OF PAPER TO PUT TOGETHER 6 LOOSELEAF NOTEBOOKS OF LEGALISTIC CRAP... AND TO BE HOnEST... THEY NEVER REALLY "INSPECTED" OUR ACTUAL ANIMALS IN TEH FLESH.
I SHOULD BE USED TO THIS... TEH DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE IS EXACTLY LIKE THAT.... LAST TIME THEY WERE HERE SOME WOMAN WAS NOT GOING TO APPROVE OF US BECAUSE MY ANIMALS DID NOT HAVE AN INDIVIDUAL NUMBER-- I SAID THEY HAD NAMES.... SHE WOULD NOT ACCEPT THAT... SO I USED SOME OF MY LANGUAGE "THAT WOULD MAKE A SAILOR BLUSH" AND TOLD HER TO LEAVE...
AND THEN THERE WAS TEH SPCA-- BACK WHEN I WAS DOING ANIMAL "DEMOS" AT CORPORATE TRADE SHOWS ETC-- AND I HAD PURCHASED 100 BABY CHICKENS FOR A DEMO-- WE DID TEH DEMO--- AND GOT BAck home to find the spca waiting for us-- they had been told we were terrible and killed chicks...-- i did not give tehm teh crate of chicks to count, i said the chicks were in there long enough so i spilled them onto the floor of a stall...and watched as 2 people tried to count the very active yellow fluffy things. they kept getting 102.
why were they so insistant on checking on our 100 chicks when teh hattchery just tossed teh male chicks into a garbage can.... could it be the publicity we could have provided???
being chicken watcher at one of the jobs was the least favorite position- reason being overly protective parents who felt their kid had every right to pick up a chick and squeeze it.
*****
short doggie... had a terrible night with the pups.... gaBBY DOES NOT LIKE VANESSA... SO I HAD TO GET UP AND STRAIGHTEN OUT PUPPIES 4 TIMES OVERNIGHT... PLUS WE LOST ELECTRICITY SEVERAL TIMES... I DID NOT REALIZE THAT THE LOSS OF ELECT. SHUTS OFF THE A/C IN TEH DEAGLE AND NUTT HOUSES--- THEY NEED TO BE PHYSICALLY RESTARTED-- OUR INSTANT START GENERATOR IS NOT QUITE INSTANT... AC/ QUIT ALONG WITH COMPUTERS...
ROUGH DAY COMING
