AN EDUCATION - Books, Behaviorists and Teaching Myself

My dogs are one of the best gifts my life has given me. I feel so lucky to have them in my life as I do. I also feel it is my job to give them a lucky life. They need care and safety and jobs and love and limits and fun!



Luna IS a present!


Foster Dog is a Wise One


While it is my job to lead our life together, my dogs often teach me how to do that. Lately, Perfect Luna has been a little sassy and I've been concerned her Role Model status might not be as ideal for Foster and I'd been thinking... I don't see her lack of listening to my command to come out of the woods as completely her fault. My dogs have taught me that their "faults" are also my fault, and together we'll figure out how to be "perfect" again. Usually, we figure it out by me going back to the books. I love books. I have a few.



Two shelves of devotion


A Picture of Satchel rests on top of these precious books


A set of very valuable guides


Two more shelves devoted


A magazine article can be read faster than a book & still make me feel I've learned something.


I learn something from every book, but I do have some favorites. I will spend the next week reviewing some favorite authors, books and resources that have enhanced my family and helped guide us to great places.
