Holly a GDA Puppy

Today was to be a crate training day. We hauled the crate to each of our stops, yet the only time Holly was in the crate was while we played with her in it and during a 20 sleep session. We are home now as the evening is coming to a close. File folders now wrap a few items Holly would not leave alone. Giving Holly items to chew hasn’t seemed to make a difference on that she deems Ok to chew on.

We have come to the conclusion that just like all infants, human or animal, the free stuff really turns out to be the most enjoyable to them. We have spent a few dollars on play toys for dogs at the local stores. Yet it is the free football received from the AIA conference that she likes the most (that is as of today and what we have handed her).

Holly is coming along with “get busy.” The landscape lighting looks great at night – plants highlighted, walls of the house are washed with a warm glowing effect, and paths traveled are visible. That was until we started taking Holly out to “get busy.” We can relate to the visually impaired here. Small black item, against dark green, illumination less than that of a full moon, wow! Now it is Holly, a bag, and a flashlight for those evening “get busy” exercises. Also, looking forward to Holly sleeping through the 4:30 AM to 6:00 AM period, been caught in the morning irrigation cycle – The “get busy” activity is cut short and I start my day a lot earlier than planned.
