Training should pick up again soon.

Mommy has been busy and just having a little trouble adjusting to all the change lately, so my training has been kind of ignored. I know how to sit, down, speak, turn around, roll over and jump. It is a short list compared to the one mom wanted to have done by now, but she isn't getting discouraged by the slow ups. Mommy just purchased a book 101 Dog Tricks by Kyra Sundance on the recommendation of Ellie! Check our links to see Ellie's Diary. She is hoping this book will give her ideas and help her get inspired again.

Mommy finally bought a cord for the video camera, but its going to take a while to get it all uploaded, especially with her busy schedule.

Also I have been on two hunting trips so far, unfortunately both were windy days. The first day we didn't see a single squirrel. The second we saw a few, but they were timbering out and we never got a shot at them. Mommy is annoyed with my whining, but I'm only telling her I'm a little uncomfortable in an unfamiliar place and with them acting all weird and walking all slow.

I guess that will be it for now. Will try to write more when Mommy has the time to help me. She's been worried about Storm, because of a mysterious, so far undiagnosed skin condition. Although she is happy to report Storm's blood work looked great!

Bye for now!

Thanks River! The place in her ear has healed up so I think it may have been a hot spot. Shaving the hair was all it took. She still have crusty places on her jaw and nose, but it doesn't bother her, so we're waiting it out and Mommy has her on a nutritional supplement since she is seven after all. Thanks again!

We think we figured out what is wrong with Storm. She has something called Zinc Responsive Dermatosis. Basically she needs zinc supplements. So we're happy. :)
