This may be the first time I’ve trained my own service dog – it’s the first time I’ve needed one! – but it isn’t the first dog I’ve trained, by far. And my training methods aren’t based upon anything but my instincts and my desire to have a great relationship with my dogs. 40 years …

Maisie Monday – Feb 21, 2022 Edition
As mentioned in my earlier News and Updates message I am going to do a few Maisie Mondays. And rather than go back and repeat Maisie’s story and how we came to be a team, you can follow these links to get the backstory: GOTCHA Day – Something Very Cool Happened Yesterday! I plan to …

Oh That Maisie!
So my girl is so good about everything, all the time, she never misses a beat…but then today…. One of Maisie’s tasks is to deliver things between Pete and I. She saves us a ton of steps, plus the painful ordeal of getting up from my corner for me… Anyway, we have an internet hotspot, …

Friday Fotos (?) Dec. 3, 2021
OK, I’m not sure if Friday “Fotos” will be a thing or not. But I had a few to share from this week, and today is Friday, so… First are some pics of wildlife you can scroll through. These are taken through my window, as usual, hence the quality takes a bit of a hit. …

VIDEO – A Little Walkabout Yesterday
A friend had asked what it was like where we are now parked, so I turned on my phone’s camera while I had Maisie outside yesterday and recorded this for her. This video is also available on my Rumble account, my GabTV channel, or Savior Connect.

UPDATE on Pete
It is now Thursday evening. I thought I was posting little updates all along in my chat box – but there’s nothing there. (You can see what happened in tonight’s note there.) I was able to talk to Pete on Tuesday, after talking to the staff for an update. I was shocked when I heard …
