Home Sweet Home!

Back home today and received a great welcome from the family! Britt and Jim out did themselves taking care of Dodger and the whole gang! I received a very loud reception when I walked in the door of whimpering, high pitched barking,jumping, licking and I was brought many toys to play with all at midnight last night! It was great! Overall the conference was great, some of my favorites.. the lecture with Behavior Analyst, Susan Schnieder and I will attempt to read her book, The Science of Consequences; How they Affect Genes, Change the Brain and Impact our World! Emma Parsons was outstanding as usual in her reactivit/aggression sessions and Ken Ramirez's segment on Nosework was a real eye opener as far as training and some of the new services dogs can do with their noses, such as helping in Wildlife Conservation. I may see a job for Dixie! Only one session that did not set well with me, couldn't seem to agree with trainers viewpoint on many aspects of their lecture. So glad to be home, taking today to rest and spend time with the dogs and family, back at work tomorrow! Can't wait to bring on some new classes and add some things to our old classes! Our sweet clients are in for a real treat I think! Click!
