Hey, Mary Kay My Husband I had a similar experiance at one of the local lakes. You would have thought we had brought a Unicorn out for a walk. We got about 25 yards from the car and 25 yards back an hour later. We never got our walk in. Zoe was on her best behavior and loved the attention. It is magical.
Hello My name is Mary Kay and I have been lurking for some time now, but I felt I had to share my experience! I have a five month old berner girl that is everything I had ever hoped for. So in keeping with the plans I made for this puppy (confirmation, obedience, carting and therapy work) we were on our way to puppy class. On the way I realized that the slip lead I had been working her on did not meet the requirments for class. No problem, petsmart is on the way! I had planned a quick in and out and on to class. Boy was I wrong! I of course had to take Pyper in to look around and properly fit the collar. >From the time we walked into the store we were mobbed! I have had her at puppy matches, the training club and petsmart before, but this was something else all together! We could not take more than 3 steps at a time! Pyper of course took all the attention as her due and hammed it up for any one who even cast a glance in her direction. One little girl just followed her around. As her parents were leaving, they mentioned that the she was generally afraid of dogs and had never seen her so taken, especially by a big dog (about 50lbs). Needless to say it was half an hour before we were back on the road! So much for a quick trip! It made me feel so good to see this silly puppy make everyone smile with a single look. Even at class other owners were paying more attention to my dog than their own! I have not always been the most outgoing person in the world, but now theres no other option! It took me about 5 years from the time I decided on the breed until I brought this bundle of joy home, so I, of course, think she is very special, but what is it about this breed that brings people out of their own worlds and shells? Whatever it is, its addictive!Mary Kay in Dayton, OH withLariat the "Dignified" Wheaten Terrier (Your not that fast Lily) 4.5yrLily the Super Basenji (Mom there's a squirrel in that tree) 14 moPyper the BabyBerner(Neverfear Lily I will chew the tree down)5mo ===== SARAH KELLY [EMAIL PROTECTED]
