Hi Maryannie!!!
This pup is DARLING!!! Sorry it's taken so long to reply. Our computer has been on the fritz.
It needed a new hard drive, but to transfer everything from the old to the new, I needed the original CD that came with
the computer...... ah well.....
Guess what?? I thought it might be fun for Jake to do dock-dog with Shadow, so I
signed them up for a class. Well, while we were there, Matty got really put out at me, for not including Rose in the class. When
I tried to explain that she probably wouldn't like it, since she's getting kinda elderly. All that did was make it worst.
So, tonight we went to dock-dog class, and I added Rose to the class.
You won't believe.... she LOVES it!!! LOL!!
She's always loved water. But, I really didn't think she'd be up for jumping off a dock after a ball or toy. She really
doesn't care about toys at all. But, part of the class is teaching them to go over obstacles. She just trotted down the
ramp, all along the dock, I said, "Over, Rose", and off she went!!! They kept asking, "How old is she???". The younger
dogs go tearing down and off the dock, and do major KA_BOOOOOMMM belly-flops. Then, here comes Rose.... head held high,
ever careful not to step outside her little ladylike self.... trot, trot, trot, gentle splash!!!! LOL!!!! We mustn't
lose our dignity, while enjoying an evening swim. She was so AWESOME!!!!
OMG!!! You should have heard the class!!!
The instructors were thrilled, everyone exploded in cheers and applause!! They said, "She doesn't even care about a
toy, she goes just because you ask her to!!!". Isnt' that the cutest thing, ever!!!???? Everyone was SO impressed with
her!!! When she had to wait for the other dogs to go, she got SO excited waiting for her turn!!! She NEVER whines, but
as her turn got closer, and closer, she'd actually wiggle and whine a little!!!! The boys thought I should tell her
to quit, but I told them that we WANT her to get a little excited for the game!!!
Oh boy..... I just couldn't wait
to tell you!!! Holey moley... I sure love that little Rosita Bonita!!!! My sweet little velcro girl!!! :-)
