Regrets - I've Had a Few...

Someone on the explore chat suggested I keep a blog of my pictures that I caption. After a huge search, some pilfering, and digging through old files, I've found most of them. Thanks to all the CPs who helped - I learned a lot doing this! The pics were a wonderful archive of fabulous memories of the last six months since I learned to do some photo-shopping and captioning. Some are still missing: I really wish I had the pic of the giraffe peeking into the business meeting in the new G-tent, Dutchie adventures on Puppy Hill and Neal's arrival in the nursery, the antics of the puppies at WCC trying to reach the window in the PEC or heading down to the river for a swim.... I'm hoping some pop up from time to time in the Facebook pages - it seems pics do occasionally resurface with whatever algorithm FB uses. But from now on, I intend to keep adding them to the blog - my own memory book for SDP and WCC.

If, by any chance, you've saved one of my captioned pics to your own files somewhere, could you PM it to me? Thanks!! Enjoy the trip back down memory lane.

January, 2016

January, 2016:


Ariot and the kids do love to chomp up those stuffies.  Poor Penguin took a beating today.








Chaos and Clark Gable went to the Malden Fire Station to say 'thank you' to the EMTs for helping them during Carlene and Bentley's misadventure.





All the pups out at once.  No noise.  What ARE they up to?




Sunday Stew:  ScooterKaren always stuffs Kongs for the kids.  
And sometimes she gets some help.





Bentley reminding us all:





Saturday fun in the arena:



IRONWOMAN!!!!!  Can pull her own weight (attached to one wrist) across a live electric field!!






Addie, training with Megan





Bentley loves his mom!






And ARiot loves her Bentley!!!




The kids are awake and creating a ruckus in #10:





La Pricipessa:




In honor of Bentley and Carlene - saving each other from harm:





The light is changing and the dogs are getting up earlier.




Well, most of them are....




Cara Mia and Cynthia




 Audrey loves her bear!





Audrey and Wanda, bonding in the condos:





Auntie ARiot with another set of babies to puppysit:





It's good to be the Queen!





Audrey has had to deal with Chaos for custody of the bear.





Miss Devo is so good with all the dogs!




Stuffie-abuse:





Beautiful lighting on this shot reminded me of another famous work of art:






Playing in the arena and trying Walter's patience:










The pups make it snow in the arena (again!!!):






I love those "poo emoji" pillows - so funny!!!!




Thinking about both David Bowie and Glenn Frey - David won this pic of Walter:




Audrey had herself quite a fun time playing. At least this pillow survived!


All hail the returning mama!!




After months of people wondering what "that" was on camera, one of the volunteers helped us all out.  (...and I decided to add a little snark.)




 Not an SDP dog, but the lovely loyal 14-year-old friend of my dear teaching colleague, Deb Ouellette - also my para for a few years before she became a teacher.  This is Brady.  He was lovely.  A good hunter with his dad.  Great with Deb's three kids.  And Deb's bestest buddy.  We miss you, sweetie.  Gone to the Bridge January 16, 2016.  You were loved.




Necco and Fin, caught in a sweet moment.





Gronkster, out training with Kati:






Yucky rain, sleet, snow caused a real mess.  And the pups loved it!




Audrey and the guys:





Walter tried to charm Steve:





The Dots: Always together.  Best buddies!!!

Volunteers resort to a secret weapon to keep order in the house!





Grace and a gang in the arena:





Actually two people working on names and "come".  But it looked like one little guy had had enough and was on quitting-time!





Someone else photoshopped the rodent in.  Love this pic!!!  (All I added was the dialogue.)













Sad baby - is hungry NOW!!!!





One transformer blown - one farm in the dark!






I love how the dogs play to the camera in #10!!!





Megan and some of the widdles on a training mission (love those little vests!)




Megan's pictures during off-the-farm training:









Carlene brought Clarkie and Bentley to Pease AFB to join the Pease Greeters






Crazy guinea hens.  They fascinate me - they're so weird.





I've missed my babies.




Having a good time in #10!!!




I did this for Andrea McCarren from the WUSA news team.  She is puppy-parenting a service dog from WCC - I called him an Energizer Bunny when he wanted to keep hiking and she was done.  Not my best, but it was 1 am and I couldn't sleep....
