4Paws sent out their letters of greeting to the kids in the January/February class last night. The dogs being assigned "write" short letters to their new human friends introducing themselves. So far, a golden retriever, papillon, white standard poodle, and border collie/pyreness have been introduced. I'm waiting to see if there are any more dogs in this group. What a mixed bunch of breeds, huh? I wonder if Laura is going to be getting one of the standard poodles from the same litter as this one? Honestly, I'm not big on white dogs as they show all the gunk around their eyes and mouth...lots of cleaning needed. But really...that's not the important thing. Most importantly, the dog is just right for Laura and we trust 4Paws to make the best match. And if it's a poodle, I've read and heard nothing more than how smart and devoted they are to their human friends. Perfect!
Next step is to book the hotel. We'll be gone from Monday through Saturday or Sunday. Classes run from Tuesday morning until Saturday late afternoon, when we have graduation. Here's hoping I pass training! Jamie will probably stay home with the boys until Thursday, and I'll go down with Laura for the first few days of training. It's going to be here before we know it!
