What a week!
6 Detective trials in one week. One on Wednesday that I judged. One on Friday I judged, two on Saturday and two on Sunday. I judge one on Saturday. Some great teams, lots of fun.
Super Skippy ran in 3 of the 6, and had awesome runs!
Skittle and Billy earned their Detective dog title!
On Friday I got up to judge only to not be able to walk on my right foot. I powered through the weekend. Only Skippy could not figure out why I did not stay up with him on the trials he ran in, but he did great by holding his freezer until I found him. Lucky for me I was able to see a doctor first thing this morning, I have a severe achillis tendon strain!
Food for thought, so last night I miss placed a paper invoice only to find it this morning in my pantry😂 In pain my brain was not thinking right, and we wonder way dogs make mistakes sometimes.
On another note, I got the kindle version of the book up on Amazon. Thanks to all that have bought and already read it, nice to hear you talk about it. Great reviews too😊
Thank you

Write a BOOK they said!
So, I wrote a book. It was my outlet to ease my frustrations, emotions, anger, sadness, anxiety, and to pay respect to a friend who died without warning back in 2021. Five years later - I could not have imagined that it would have taken this long to complete this book - But after my friend’s death, a lawsuit took place and is still going on. My son who bought property with my friend has lost all the money he put into the house including his equity. When I started this book, I thought the sale of it could help pay the mounting lawyer fees, which are still mounting.
I ask this of you -- Please buy the book. Think of it as a “go fund me” except I am not asking for money with no return for you. Instead, you get my book “Scent of Evidence” in which the main character does AKC Obedience and more. There is mystery, intrigue and a lot of useful dog training tips imbedded in the book.

LIFE IS TOO SHORT! With that said, I have decided to post all my training DVDs to YouTube (DD’s Dog Training) for FREE! It will take some time to get them all posted, but please subscribe to my YouTube channel. I am giving back, for your support of me and my family.
Happy reading and Thank You!
