And Janda is coming with me to graduation tomorrow, so if anyone else is going, we’ll both see you there!

I suppose I should update. Life’s been VERY slow here. We’ve been snowed in for almost a week, and I hate it. So does Tianna. We stil have about a foot of snow, but my dad put chains on our car, and we’re going to venture up to the grocery store so that I can [...]

Mellow Fellow
Fellow is very calm and laid-back. BUT, I’m looking forward to taking Vortex again. I love that little puppy. Fellow is so so so calm that he almost has no personality. I like Vortex’s spunky personality.

And here you thought that meant I was getting a puppy. I’m so mean aren’t I?
Well if you thought I was getting a pupper, you’re partly right, and partly wrong. So I suppose I should start with the non-guide dog part of the news, or you won’t read it …
So here’s the story… [...]

Well, it looks like no more starter pups for little ‘ol me. Our CFR wants the starter raisers to work with them for longer than a month, and that’s just not possible for me. So sadly, I’ll have to say goodbye to my dream of having one last starter pup. Too bad, because my parents [...]

Wow I can’t believe I’ve reached 100 posts….weeiirrdd…
Well with his raiser’s permission, I’d like to introduce you to Lawrence’s brother, Lorenzo.
Like most of the “L” litter, Lorenzo made it all the way to phase 10. However, he was career changed and is now living with his raisers’ niece.
One thing I’ve noticed about this litter is [...]

Well, graduation is officially over. Lawrence and his partner are back home, and I’m sure they’re having a good ‘ol time.
I’m creating a password protected page for Lawrence’s graduation and pictures since they involve people pictures that I don’t want to post publicly. So if you’d like to see the page, comment, and have your e-mail [...]

Well…the graduation is tomorrow. I know I’m going to get 5 thousand comments saying “everything will be fine” but here’s what I’m thinking/worrying about…
I was supposed to call Lawrence’s partner last night at about 5. Things happened and I didn’t get a chance to call until later, and he was busy. I was [...]

As promised (before I got my Lawrence news…) here are my pictures of Mr. Vortex
Oh wait! Who’s the gorgeous yellow lab in the harness? Could it be Lawrence????
Yes, my dear friends, Lawrence’s partner has been e-mailing me, and I’m so excited for the match. He’s the man’s 8th guide, and they seem to [...]

well it sure came a roundabout way, but I have some news on my little guy (Lawrence). As you all know, the October class was decided last week (I think) and I was sad that once again Lawrence decided to wait this graduation out. I decided that after the graduation I’d call GDB and ask [...]
