The pics from the yard sale with Jill didn't come out - oh well. We missed Tremont READer dog this week and the Acadia pick up day - worked to many and long into the night hours that I didn't wake up in time to go... oh well. Hopefully tomorrow the girlz will get their first swim of 2011 in!

Dog Scout yard sale today. We hauled and set up yesterday and today was the sale. We were successful but not as much $$ as last year. We think the April date vs. the June date made a difference in the number of people that came. Timber loves the yard sale as I usually bring her home a new baby - this time a Siamese cat! Jillian went to the yard sale as my sales associate and official greeter. I hope to have a picture of that soon.

Timber had REAder dog at the Somesville library. Cute little girls read to her and she wagged and layed on their laps. Got a call from the vet - ALL of Rissa's lab work in range - all levels within normal limits! Yippee!

Vet

All 3 dogs and Lucy cat went to the vet on Monday. Every one's weight was good. all heart worm and Lyme negative. Rissa had some blood work done as she is 12.5 and starting to act her age a bit more. All in all - a good visit except for my wallet :)

Sunday 4/10/11

Took Rissa visiting at Birch Bay Village. She absolutely KNOWS when her collar goes on that she is going there. The other 2 were in the car - when we got there - she came right to the front and jumped out- she knew it was her time to visit! The girlz in the car actually had 2 residents visit them in the car. Not a usual circumstance but happened twice today. It is always fun for people to see all 3 colors in the car together. Tomorrow the vet's for a routine check up and heart worm test etc... All 3 dogs and Lucy the cat to docs tomorrow - bring my wallet!

April 7th

Timber went to Tremont School today. She was so happy to see her "kids"

April 6th

Tonight the Dog Scout troop was invited to the island cub scout meeting. We had stations on grooming, bite prevention, training and what the dog scouts are/do. The "dens" circulated to each station. Jillian and I were the dog bite prevention station. Each practiced greeting a dog, took a pledge on bite prevention and each got their own handout I had made a few years ago on bite prevention. Jillian was a peach and so gentle and good with all the kids. She enjoyed herself!

Prez service award

Received 2 presidential service awards today for volunteering. One as an individual and one as part of the Dog Scout troop. Third year in a row!
