Hey Everyone, We are back home now from our trip to Ohio for the turn-in of our 2nd CCI dog Jamba. I thought I'd share some of the photos I took. Sometimes pictures can tell more of the story. Jamba is the 2nd dog we've raised for Canine Companions for Independence, a not-for-profit charity that… Continue reading Jamba’s Turn-In – How do we do it?
Jamba, Here!
Jamba LOVES the water. Ever since we took him to Michigan and played in the lake he has been itching to get back there for more water fun! So during a recent camping trip we decided to take him to see the Ultimate in lakes...Lake Michigan! (yes, I know...he's seen it from the Chicago side… Continue reading Jamba, Here!
Happy Birthday Jamba!
Sunday was Jamba's 1st Birthday! It's hard to believe that he is already a year old! I think it is at this point forward that these pups really start to come into their own. They calm down a lot and really look forward to working. This is somewhat true with our Jamba. It just so happened… Continue reading Happy Birthday Jamba!
The Trouble With A 10 Month Old Dog Is…
I'm not even going to say anything... Okay...maybe just a few words. This is from last Friday, we left Jamba and Holly alone while we went out to eat, something we've done several times before without nearly an issue. I didn't put them behind gates or in kennels because I figured they'd just go sleep… Continue reading The Trouble With A 10 Month Old Dog Is…

So this morning I decided to get up early with Jamba and drive into the city to see what would inspire me. … Continue reading Early Sunday Morning – Photography Practice

Einstein’s Graduation!
Hi Again! I know you all have been anxiously waiting to hear about Einstein. This is one of the reasons I haven't posted in a while. We have been crossing our fingers and holding our breath for six months and now that it is all over we can exhale, pinch ourselves and come to grips… Continue reading Einstein’s Graduation!
Turn-In Saturday and Sun-Dogs
We turned Einstein in to CCI last Saturday. It was a fairly un-eventful drive, pretty normal with Einstein sleeping all 6 hours curled up on his bed in the back of the car, changing positions every once in awhile only to move into a better position to capture the sun upon his fur. We’d hear… Continue reading Turn-In Saturday and Sun-Dogs
