I am saluting a veteran/veterans who truly have no say. In fact though not officially drafted, they really had no say in having to serve, yet they served with the greatest of honor, often quite heroicly; even though wounded. I am speaking here of the dogs that bled and died alongside our troops. And so it is that I am now working to salute and thank these forgotten troops via their own day - K9 Veterans Day -an annual day for all time, in honor of all the dogs of all our wars. And it you wish to help, just drop me a line, and know in advance that there is no cost for your support, just a desire to honor the dogs.

Hi Joe,
You asked me to make a note of what I would like to learn from our next level of dog training.
1. Recall
2. Control running up and barking at people at the dog park
3. Healing off leash
4. Bark on command for protection
I think this is a pretty big order but is neccessary for Tigger to be a good citizen. I appreciate any and all the help I can get.
Thanks,
Francie
