Intuition "Mylie"
Everyone had a great time at
graduation last night. We only had collies and aussies so Alice didn't get to
play
with her favorite little white fluffy dog but she got to play with all of the
big dogs. We played some obedience games
and had some playtime for the dogs (Alice's favorite part of class) and then had
some snacks (Mylie's favorite part
and Collin's too!!). The dogs had homemade dog biscuits and the humans had
butter pecan cake! Take care, Angela
CONGRATULATIONS Miss
Mylie & Miss Alice!
HAPPY VALENTINE WISHES!
