New Moon

Well first of I wanted to thank everyone who commented on my last post. I have realized just how hard it is and wasn't sure what to do about Mara so thank you.

Well as the post says I went to New Moon tonight with a friend and took Mara along with me. No it was not the midnight showing. This is one of the best outings she has gone on with me. What I mean is that she impressed me that she just settled down and slept through the whole movie. As for how the movie was I thought is was good. I do have to say though that Jacob in the movie is more attractive then Edward. It's not that I'm not an Edward fan. I just like Jacob better in the movie and Edward in the book so I guess you could say that I am divided. Well here are some pictures.

Mara getting her wiggles out after the

movie.

Of course after the movie I had to come

home and take a picture of Mara with the

book.

Question

Well first of let me start with the pictures that I promised yesterday. Well here they are.

Beautiful little Mara.

Mara with my cat Sylvester.

Mara after puppy class yesterday.

Now for my one question.

* For those of you that have raised transfer puppies how have you gotten used to them. Why I asked this is because I have had a really hard time getting used to Mara personality. I mean for some reason I keep thinking that she would be better of with someone else. I can't bring myself to do it though. There is a part of me that loves her dearly but since the day that I got her me and her just haven't clicked like me and Journey. I mean for some reason it feels like Journey was my dog. I mean from the moment I got him he just felt like mine. I really didn't mind starting him for the High School program but theres a part of me that wished he wouldn't have gone. I guess I know why I started him for the High School program though. Well thats all for know. I leave you with a few more pictures of Journey since I have been in contact with his new raiser since he went to her. Well here they are.

Journ in his create which he loved

some much even when I had him.

High School Raising Program.

A couple post ago I ask people suggestions for post and someone ask me to explain more about the High School Raising Program that I have raised 3 pups for. So is a little bit more about it.

Well with being a starter raiser its basically like doing a regular puppy except you feel like you need to work a little harder with the puppies to get the stuff right. Like with my experiences I have felt the need to give the puppies a little bit of a start with all the commands. With what its like not being able to finish them its kind of sad cause you put all the work into starting them and then they half to go to a raiser how hasn't really had the experience of raising a guide dog puppy before but yet its kind of fun to see how they are going to work out with there new raiser. Here is a newspaper article with the first time high school program or something like that.
