Happy Thanksgiving!

11•29•09

Amazing that Thanksgiving has already come and gone… We have a lot to be thankful for this year, starting with Emmett and his cancer-free status. After our two-day training marathon out at a gorgeous horse farm, we went to spend the holiday with family in Maryland, leaving the boys with my parents. We had a wonderful trip, and the boys, of course, had a blast at their grandparents’ house. Emmett even got to eat two whole loaves of bread off the counter when my mom left to run an errand. I think one of my New Year’s resolutions needs to be putting a stop to Emmett’s counter-surfing habit…

After a week away (without wifi! gah!) I have a lot of catching up to do. Over the past month or so I’ve sorely neglected the blog, but there’s a lot to come, including new product reviews, more training resources, and even a giveaway! Details to come in a couple weeks!

Now I’m off to go snuggle with the boys, who I missed a ton while we were away. In the meantime, check out this video of Lucas encountering some very large horses. It’s a little fuzzy because I took it on my cell phone, and the lighting was pretty bad in the barn, but you can see that Lucas was completely enthralled with these very gentle giants.

    It’s my understanding that dogs can quite easily distinguish between their species and another, and even between different breeds of their own species (which is how some dogs can be aggressive to other breeds but not their own)… but isn’t it tempting to try and put yourself in Lucas’ brain and think for him, “Wow, that dog is HUUUUGE!”?

    HA! Adam, I totally was thinking the exact same thing re: Lucas thinking the horse was just a gigantic dog. I do think he knew it was something different… he just had no idea what! Each time one of the horses passed by, he stood perfectly still, cocked his head, and just stared. It was hilarious!
