Sunday

Jillian seems to have made a full recovery already post spaying on Thursday. She is again doing the bunny hop for her chow. Lucy thinks she is the cat's pajamas with her new hair do. Kirby has finally stopped hissing and growling at her - which didn't phase Lucy but... stopped the dogs in their tracks. They did not know what to make of this primal animal growling in their house.

Last school reading day for Timber. All the kids got their bookmarks filled and will receive a book at our final celebration. The pencils I ordered have not arrived yet!

Jillian is getting spayed today. I go pick her up and Lucy the cat (got shaved - lion cut) after 4PM...

Thursday, May 14th

Almost the last school day for Timber. She did her first writer dog today - she got petted by me for 10 minutes(to occupy her) while the boy wrote... Plans made for the last days. All the kids will get their final books at our good bye party. I ordered some pencils for the kids "I love my reader dog" to give them then.

May 8th

Pet therapy with Rissa today and 1000 errands in between visits. I got a cute "Mother's Day" card from the girlz :) Working on making the cards and puppy pails to sell this summer for READer dog book $$. I must study this weekend for a test on Monday and then down to business producing the pails! Naturally Rissa enjoyed her visits and all the people she met...

Thursday, May 7th

Timber did her thing at school. I interrogated the kids on the types of books they might want Timber to give them next (their last)... "Hunting, Lobstering, Dragons, Ricky Ricotta... Naturally I have ZERO of those books! Only a few more sessions with Timber's kids and then the final party in June. We will attend Cirra's final party in Northeast Harbor in June also. One of the kids needs to write better so the reading teacher asked if he could write to Timber our next few sessions - "sure" - she can be "Writer Dog".. he was actually excited that he would be the first to "write" to Timber... whatever to get him excited to learn...

Dog Scout meeting today. A lovely walk along a shore path in Bucksport and then a picnic lunch at a member's(Sherry) house on Verona Island. Pictured are 3 of the smallest dog scouts (Trance, Molly and Wendy). Next month is letterboxing on the dog scout meeting. Rissa chats it up with Molly about this dog scout thing... :)

Thursday April 30th

School day for Timber. 2 of her girls got books today and plans were made to finish up the kids by the end of May. We will have a final day with the classes and Rissa (they will get certificates) and we will attend the assembly and have our party on 6/12 with Timber's kids.

Bri's READer dog tea in Blue Hill




Rissa and I attended Bri's Tea to mark the end of their sessions until the fall. Cirra also attended. The kids that read to Bri all got books, snacks and said good bye to Bri for the summer. One little girl read her new book to Rissa!
