We walked again this year in the Purina Walk for Dog Guides. Raised $1300 for the cause. We borrowed Laura’s dog Dudley. Dudley is half golden retriever and half afghan. In other words, big and hairy. There is still hair all over the back seat of my car.

Victoria Day Weekend
Busy Busy
Getting the house ready to sell so we rearranged the family room furniture, hung some pictures, “staged” the dining room and front entrance, pulled dandelions, swept the walk, hired a cleaning lady, and in between, went to a concert, entertained for dinner on Sunday and lunch on Monday.
The concert was nephew Zack’s Ottawa Junior Jazz Band at the Musicfest Nationals. They were held this year in Markham.

Purina Walk for Dog Guides
My family, including our Dog Guide Foster Puppy AJ, will be participating in the Purina Walk for Dog Guides on May 31, 2009 to help raise funds for the training and placement of Dog Guides.
AJ is our second foster puppy.

Dog Guides Canada has already provided their specially trained Dog Guides to more than 1300 men, women and children from ages eight to 88. With your help, more people can experience the mobility, safety and independence a devoted Dog Guide partner brings.
