my incredible black bear went WAY too soon! I am overwhelmed by the people IRL that she touched. this little guy is saving my sanity by keeping me busy and focused in helping him to be the phenomenal dog that she was. being her first cousin (their mothers are sisters) they share many of the same traits. he makes a lot of the same snorts, and mumbles when he is procssing information like she did. he does some ofthe same goofy stuff. he also has not had to work like she did, so has a rather carefree view of the world that she had lost. the training is keeping me busy and focussed. that I had a dog that didn't think twice about going through airport security, boarding a plane and being totally chill for up to 8 hours, vs, a dog that walks into the glass doors of the pet store, and then splays out in a total "Bambi" in same store... yeah, a lot of work, a lot of focus!
I am certainly working on living ling and prospering! ;o)
