<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Those of you with dogs have probably seen "the look". Yesterday was Christmas Eve and we had family here celebrating. I had the dogs blocked from the living room so they wouldn't interfere with the gift opening. Gage kept coming to the gate and giving me "the look". After the third time, I decided I had better go check to see what he was telling me. On entering the kitchen I discovered the problem. It seems that his mother Gia and our guest dog Boomer each had a corner of the table cloth and were gently pulling the food toward the edge. I think they were being easy to keep from being caught. Drats! That little tattle tale Gage ratted them out. And now he is worn out and dreaming of his reward.</span>LaDonnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07354617542949691819noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6274464145826578488.post-4853226316221085292011-12-12T05:25:00.001-05:002011-12-12T05:39:53.965-05:00Gage & Littermates turn 6<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BhZ3KcM3TpM/TuXWlv33uzI/AAAAAAAAB2k/nsivmucoMis/s1600/pager+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BhZ3KcM3TpM/TuXWlv33uzI/AAAAAAAAB2k/nsivmucoMis/s320/pager+6.jpg" width="320" /></a> <span style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;">This past Saturday Gage and his litter mates celebrated another birthday. How quickly those six years have gone. I was so pleased to hear from some of the owners and to receive these two photos. The first is sister Pager. Melissa reports that she is a wonderful girl.

Our sons family is fostering a German Short Hair Pointer and they brought her along to spend some time with our family. Gage immediately fell in love with Greta. He spent the last two days trying to make her realize that he is the man for her. They were fun to watch. Gia was very relaxed with Greta too. Though Gia didn't play with her, she seemed content to watch as Greta and Gage played.</span></div>LaDonnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07354617542949691819noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6274464145826578488.post-43948318580389484112011-11-18T08:41:00.001-05:002011-11-18T08:42:10.722-05:00Crate Trained<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Lisa and Jim are so proud of this hard working little brown girl and we are proud of all of them. Jim has been running Jazz in agility and the two of them qualify on nearly every run and place in the ribbons as well. Jazz and Lisa have also completed 6 of the 10 RAE wins that they need for that championship. To top all of that off, Jazz and Lisa have now received Jazz' Obedience Companion Dog title with another first place win. What a great team! Congratulations to you all.</span></div>LaDonnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07354617542949691819noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6274464145826578488.post-48798933486607624652011-10-04T13:11:00.000-04:002011-10-04T15:39:31.732-04:00My Heart is Blessed<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Gage and I had pet therapy at the home this morning. It is always such a
blessing to share this sweet dog with others. Today was a very special blessing.
The woman in this picture is a new resident and she is blind. When she was
brought to the area where we do our visits, I was told that she was unsure about
coming because she would not be able to see what was going on. Unsolicited by
anyone Gage gently climbed up on the couch next to her and wiggled his butt
right into her. As she petted and felt him all over, I described to her what he
looked like. She then said, " today I saw and what I see is a magnificent
animal". How blessed my heart was by that.
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /><span style="color: #990000;"></span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">The other thing
that happened was that one of my favorite residents recently spent two weeks in
the hospital. She has been back at the home for a couple of weeks but has
refused to leave her room because she is now confined to a wheel chair. When we
arrived I asked about her and was told that she would not come out. I asked one
of the staff if they would just go tell her that Gage was there to see her. By
golly, it wasn't long and there she came wheeling herself out to the group. I
was thrilled and so was the staff. What a blessing this little spotted dog is to
so many. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: blue;"> We here at Kingdom Dalmatians are so proud of our resident therapy dogs.

<br /><div><span style="font-size:180%;color:#6600cc;">Little Miss <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Gia</span> brought many smiles this week during a pet therapy session. The staff was so pleased to hear one of the residents actually laugh out loud when she saw <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Gia</span> wearing her tutu. They had never even seen this particular resident smile. It is so rewarding when you know that these dogs can bring so much joy to others. <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Gia</span> did a great job, doing tricks and letting the old folks pet to their hearts content. Good girl G.</span></div>

She and owner Lisa work so beautifully together in all that they pursue.
