hey, granny......I work just down the way from your doctor's office if you need me to come yell at them for you. ....mm I'll have been in the office for a bit so should be more than ready to snap a few necks at that point......Get some good sleep. Wish you had someone going with you. PLEASE tell the doc everything and stand up for yourself. Don't get swept under the rug K? Promise? Ask about your hand too. I';ll be thinking about you all day. So glad your appt is finally here!
So glad to hear all this. That church lady who said labs were untrainable past a certain age had me worried. Actually, I've really gotten a surprising amount of criticism for adopting a senior dog. Thickening my skin for the day I start adopting teens, I guess.Ask me a simple question about a dog, you get a novel! Miss Sienna. She's 99% Lab I think, but I see Dobie spots on cheeks. [COLOR=141823]Sienna was scheduled to be "put down" the day Kip rescued her from a high kill county shelter in San Bernardino. She had pneumonia, weighed 38 lbs.Out here, in a shelter, "ya sneeze, ya die." @campingshaws . pics of Ben was such a reminder. Kip's 10 yo service dog had to retire, Kip wanted to rescue. Kip worked hard for 6 mos to nurse her back, then I began her training. So much for this street dog to learn. Obedience, then socialization. About a year later, last April, she started task training. Baby girl was such a great student. She graduated last month with full public access. She opens and closes doors and drawers, turns lights on and off, retrieves dropped items to hand, will "get the phone" anywhere in the house, carry light purchases, push elevator and handicap buttons, bark to get help if Kip falls and so much more. The spirit of a throwaway dog. Here's another pic. I have videos of her task work but can't upload them.[/COLOR]
