What a week

Well by now most of you all know that we will be moving to Atlanta Georgia. The move will take place sometime around late summer early fall. I am a little sad because I have such wonderful friends here in Texas. However, I am getting a little excited to meet new friends and be closer to our families. I have been promised a huge flat yard so I can continue to train Toby in agility. I have been told by several people that Georgia has some top notch schools for agility. So that is what is making me so excited about the move.

Last night Toby and I had basic obedience class. We did very well if I might say! I have been working on Toby's sits. He still wants to rock back into a slopping sit from time to time but for the most part he is doing great. I have been told that he has to develop different muscles before he will be able to hold a straight sit with out rocking back. The poor guy! During out sit stay exercise after a while I could see his front legs shaking a bit. I thing they were getting tired because he needs those muscle to be stronger. Once he develops those muscles I think he will be just fine.

After class I visited with a new comer to the class. Crystal and her dog Beacon has joined the class. Toby and I were in a class with her out at DDS. I was surprised to see her. Anyway we got talking after class about our dogs when she asked me if I wanted another Sheltie. Her neighbor found the cutest Sheltie in her yard about two weeks ago. Something about this Sheltie stood out in my mind. A couple of weeks ago I got an email from a friend that lives just a little way from me in the Duck Creek Home owners association area. The email was about someone looking for a Sheltie that had run off. So I got the information as to where this Sheltie was and went home to call my friend. You see I am one of those who delete all of my old emails so I no longer had all of the information about where this Sheltie belong. My friend was able to look up the old email and she gave me the number. I called this lady to tell her that I might know where her dog was. I know it was a long shot but something in my gut told me it was her dog. Well about an hour later I got this call from the lady who was looking for her Sheltie. IT WAS HERS! She thought that her dog was long gone but she was driving home with her baby. You could tell she was just busting with happiness. I was very happy for her. I just could not imagine loosing Toby. That would absolutely break my heart! The night ended on a happy note.
