Darlah and Nathan,
Am I correct in thinking that this is Darlah's birthday today? If so Happy Birthday Darlah. Today Coco, Doozie and I attended a workshop on Sport Detection or sniffer training. The girls had to find the box that contained a scent canister holding a Q tip that has been dipped in wintergreen 24 hour earlier from a group of six identical boxes. They both did very well but Coco was reluctant to put her head in the box the first time. Later she identified the correct box by taking a bow at it. She is such a good little problem solver. Doozie was a natural, took to it right away.
They are both tuckered out now.
Lot of love

Shannon let us know this:
Levon graduated from obedience class today. He won "best settle stay," "best recall," and, most importantly (I think), "the happiest dog" award.

Huge bravo, Shannon!!!
