WOW, it's been such a long time since I updated the
website!
I finally graduated from UNH at Manchester in December. Hurrah!
I had my surgery in January and am healing very well. I am just now
able to slowly resume some of my normal activities. Guess that means
I won't have a good excuse to get help in the rattery from my daughter.
Sigh.
Ok, I am officially sick of snow! I don't participate
in outdoor winter sports, etc, so I am anxiously awaiting for spring.
This snow bank is actually 8 feet high.
We had a little melting over the past week, so the bank
is now just below my car's roof. Unfortunately, today we recieved
another 3 inches. :-(
There hadn't been any litters for what seems like a
very long time, as there were very few in 2010. However, I hope that
will change this year or I will lose a couple of lines. The year has
a good start with 2 litters on the ground now. Other pairings have
been made recently so keeping fingers crossed the females were not
too old to have their first litter.
In 2010 I had been training my dog, Drako in narcotic
search and attended a protection seminar by a well-known trainer.
Drako loves to work and performs extremely well.
On the other hand, my daughter hit a snag with Xena's
behavior in agility, so they did not start competing last year. :-(
Hopefully it'll be straightened out so they can get out there this
year.
