I am a male yellow Lab. My birth date is September 4th 2011. I am in training to be a guide dog for the blind. (guide dog school -Southeastern Guide Dogs) I'm my raiser's fifth guide dog puppy. She will keep me for (about) 1 year, then I will head off to harness training! Please feel free to follow my blog and keep up with: Brandon's Life... As a guide dog in training

I Did It For Toby -

1 week before Toby "left" (went back to school) I decided to start running. (as in - 3 miles running!).
I ran twice with Toby before he left, and kept it up after he was gone, then decided to enter a 5k race.
Of course this race had to be AFTER Toby was gone :( So he wouldn't be here to cheer me on.
This race was last Saturday.
With over 180 people running (and walking!) it, I happened to get a prize... a trophy... for second OVERALL female. Yes, I was the SECOND female to cross the finish line!

Toby would have been proud to see me finish and I wish he was still with me, but he has much better things to do!
I'm happy to have won a trophy, since I just started running 2 1/2 weeks ago I was quite surprised!
On a different note, Tracker came over today. We had so much fun playing together! I wonder how long I will be having him over for - a couple more days, another week? Either way, Liberty is LOVING him. He is her new "play buddy" and she waits by the door each morning for me to run over to pick him up!
I'm off to do another race "for" Toby this weekend, wish me luck!
