Duchess says...

Hey guys!
Did you miss me? Seems like my handler has been HOGGING the blog lately :( Sorry about that, I'll have a "little" talk with her soon...
My handler got the letter in the mail yesterday... from SEGDI (the guide dog school). Which means the "IFT" date is official... Toby, Rocky, Spike, Cassie, & I WILL be leaving next month down to FL, and WON'T be coming back.
But I'm told we will have LOTS OF FUN!!

On to other stuff -
My handler has been busy trying to expose me to many things. I think the goose is scary, it looks at me with a "odd" face. And when my handler showed me the horses... well, let's just say. It wasn't pretty... "Those things" are BIG.

My handler has gotten many good comments on how well I behave in town! I have even attended a 1 hour YMCA class. All my handler did though was "dance" to music, and I was stuck doing a 1 hour down-stay, that was sure hard.
She was afraid I wouldn't stay that long, but I proved her wrong. I wanted to be just like Toby! (he attends 3 one hour YMCA classes EACH week!).

Enjoy the pictures & videos down below.

I'm going to finish having a "Freaky Friday". I heard something about my handler introducing me to a HORSE! I thought it looked big enough on the other side of the fence... now I have to MEET IT!
Wish me luck.

(Movie of Duchess watching "Zumba", the 1 hour class at the YMCA. She was laying down in coat, but behaved quite well)
(Movie of Duchess meeting "Milo" the pig. Right after this movie was taken... she pulled her collar off & ran back to the house - I tightened her collar up a little more after that!)

Pawesome...

When my handler was teaching me how to work a blog, she had me read through some posts Toby had done over the last month(s).
I was starting to think, "Why does Toby get all the comments, and I'm left with just a couple?"
Until I came upon this word:
PAWESOME - No wonder he gets all the readers!
What the pup is pawesome?
My handler saw my "face", so she looked at the word, laughed, then explained what it meant.
Evidently "Pawesome" means "awesome" - but you add a "p" at the beginning. So it's "dogarized".
Since I'm new at all this stuff, I had no idea what it meant, now I'm kind a embarrassed I didn't know what the word was...
Oh well, I'll get over it.
Have a PAWESOME Monday, and enjoy the PAWESOME pictures my PAWESOME handler took with her PAWESOME camera!

So does that mean I'm gonna get a whole bunch of PAWESOME comments, from PAWESOME bloggers??
