The day started out rough. I woke still tired from day 6, but had to take care of the dogs and get out to Physical Therapy (long and boring story.) PT brought me to tears, so they surprised me with the great pleasure of six injections to top off my normal two hour ordeal...I mean routine. On my way home, I realized the tears weren't just the physical pain I was feeling, but some physical and emotional fatigue that I believed I could just ignore. It's exhausting trying to prove people wrong. |

Today was a disappointment....in myself, not the dog. I know better than to blame the dog. An effective teacher has an exemplary student. What's great about today is that although I am a dog trainer, I am still an average person. My husband is away for two weeks, I homeschool my kids, I have two dogs that I dote on, I run a business and my kids' social and extracurriclar lives are busy!! I am not fishing for sympathy...at all. Just painting the picture. Average people are busy and average people mess up with dogs. |

Day three with Noel was relatively uneventful. She continues to progress with her housetraining. She has had no accidents today. What Noel needs is what all dogs need; their needs to be met. Once you know what a dog needs, it's then all about finding a human who can provide for the needs. As I went through my day today, Noel's predicament kept coming to the forefront of my mind. Why aren't dogs needs being met? Why am I teaching an 8 month old what should have been learned many months ago? |
