It's been pretty good so far. Wedding planning is in full force now. As much as I can't wait to get married all the planning and people telling me do this, do that, why did you do this?, have you done that? and everything else just have me wanting to elope. The one thing I hate is being told what to do when it's my wedding and I want it done as simple as possible and people are making it more complicated.
Other than that it's been pretty slow. I'm looking for a new better paying job. Something I can sit at a desk for 40 hours a week and then do dog training on the side as my own business. Hopefully leading up to dog training being my full time job in 5 years but we will see.
Dogs are doing well. Buddy is 15 this year. He's still doing pretty well for his age. Still loves to play and go on walks. He's almost totally deaf now though so we have to keep a close eye on him. Thankfully we use hand motions a lot so he understands hand signals which I never thought would come in handy. Its taught me to not only teach verbal commands but to teach hand signals as well.
Molly is good. She's 11 now. Her knees give her problems from time to time but we know to be easy with her. She's our watch dog. Loves to walk people out of the house and meet them at the door. Lets us know when people walk up too.
Mia is 7 this year and still doing good. She started coughing a week ago and turns out she had a cold. We were afraid it was going to be kennel cough and with her IMT it could be bad but she's doing well.
All the geckos are good. Jack, Charlie and Claire. Just busy being leopard geckos.
Jean-luc and Bellatrix are doing well. Jean-luc is getting fat. might have to go a little longer between feedings. He's 9. Where as little 1 year old Bellatrix just got upgraded to 3 pinkies every 2 weeks. She could probably take fuzzies by now but we have a ton of pinkies that she cake with. Even with some of the pinkies going to the geckos every few weeks we still have months worth of pinkies. SHe's getting more used to people now. We get her out and let her stay in a little bag so she gets used to being handled and take her out for a bit then put her back in and take her home or bathe her. Both have been having shedding issues so we have supplements for baths. Hopefully then next shed will be better.
