Ever Wonder why?

Ever wonder why some folks have tons of friends? I have always wondered why it is that some have tons of friends and others have a select few? Do those that have tons of friends have tons they can count on or just a few? I am just one of those people that isn't so easy to get to know. I have a select few friends. I have always been that way from the time I was young. My brother is the person who has tons. He is far more social than I. I am far more distrusting of people. I am not sure why we are so different in this area but we are. I am totaly loyal to my true friends and would never do anything to hurt them and everything I can to help. I don't think that all the hurt I have been through in my life caused me to be this way but I think it just afirmed how I have always been. Maybe this is why I have dogs, who knows.

CHESTER DID IT!!!


You go Chester! He passed his pet therapy test today. Doesn't he look like the dog for the job? This is Chester giving my granny some lovin'. I think he is going to love his new job. I can' wait until Monday. We will be doing our first supervised visit on Monday and our second on Tuesday. I am sure we will be doing visits on our own in no time.

Guess what I did?


Say hello to the newest CGC holder at our house! I know, I can't hardly believe it myself. Mr. Bentley Drew passed his test. I am certian that being worn out played a major roll in his success. I am so excited that all of our boys have earned their CGC's.

Tick Tock...goes the clock!! The Pet therapy test draws near. I am so excited about Chester taking this test. This has been a long term goal for me it was just a matter of having the right dog for the job and there isn't a doubt in my mind that Chester is the right dog for the job. This boy loves kids and I just can't imagine him doing anything else. I will post the results of the test sometime Saturday late afternoon.

What to be is the question?

I am pretty sure the answer should be ready to go. I am totally excited about Saturday. We took Chester to the park today and he was happily mobbed by 3 very young little girls and he never offered even once to jump on them. If he does his pet therapy test this way...he will be great. I am so excited about this test. I am sure that I will be a bit nervous the day of the test.

Bentley and I are going tracking in the morning. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day. Tracking in the morning, public manners CGC testing at 7 we will attend but are not testing as Chester has already passed this test. I am trying to decided if I would like to test Bentley or not. He has obility class prior to this at 6. We will see if I am feeling brave enough. I might just so I know what I need to work on. He is a great dog but he is still fairly young so I won't be tore up if he doesn't pass. My Grandparents are coming into town on Friday so I am excited to get to see them. They will be spending the night, they are looking forward to seeing the boys. Bentley and I have rally class Thursday night and I am working too. I know that is a lot of dog classes right now. I enjoy it so. I think Bradley needs to get to go with me some to classes. He is getting a little bummed that he hasn't been in a while.
