WHAT A GREAT SANTA-- AND ALL THAT WHITE BEARD IS REAL!
WE had a great stewing on all levels
many new faces---
lotsa loose dogs--( no dog fights)
marks music
barbara's hams--in addition to lotsa other food -- mostly eaten
****
and bud won the $500 -- it is always fun to have someone win who is actually here so we all can enjoy the fun..
***
bud 2 was here with family and indy--wants to work on visiting vets with indy-- we can do that...
****
annie--- #401 ---the first service dog i put out--- was here with melissa-- so we had 3 of that litter annie bella and lindsay-
***
with so many creative people in attendence it rolled !
the rest of the pictures---- in tabloo form ---will be forthcoming
and people coming to work here for the next few days do not need to bring lunch--- we have barbara's ham in sandwich form---

i am delighted jade and pistol are doing soooo well.
jade intends to walk across the stage to get her diploma in 2 weeks -- and i do not doubt she can do it
but i am a nervous wreck...
i am scared the audience will stand burst into applause at which time pistol--- who has only been with jade a very short time--- will decide it is a fire drill or some such----and bolt out the door- dragging jade with her.
but what do i know.
i figure jade is destined to make the front page one way or another-- it is a great thing that jade is so cheerful- she can handle either with a smile...

Pistol is doing so good! We are flip flopping between going at a walking pace and going 90 mph. We have the one step crawl nearly perfected. We went for a walk yesterday and the pace was ideal. I have taken her to a bunch of events with clapping and she is completely fine with that. Now I am going to bring her to some really crowded events and confirm that she can handle graduation. We have 2 weeks to practice but she is so eager to please I am confident she could do it tomorrow. :)

steve is due in the guest house to meet the dogs... today probably around noon 3.5 hour car ride to get here
*****************
today is recovery day
things like get the amish buggy back in the arena
and all those christmas packages--- we should be able to do something creative with them... they have that final touch barbara and crew puts on things--- silver bows etc
i get them wrapped in red paper with duct tape--- but these have the final touch...
*********************
puppys to the fairground--- things like that today
and........ we made $1400 on last months wall
GUESS WHAT?
NAG TIME FOR JANUARY www.memsaic.com/app/launch.cfm?sid=0FD5CCB2AAE9D7
AND FOR THOSE MATH TYPES--- SINCE WE SOLD 140 TICKETS --- THAT GAVE YOU A CHANCE ON 1 IN 140 ON WINNING THE $500
EVEN IF WE SELL ALL THE NUMBERS THE ODD WOULD BE 1 IN 350
STILL FAR BETTER THAN ANY OLD MASS LOTTERY !!!
(don't figure it is me nagging--- these dogs insist on a square meal !!)
