Hip..Hip..Hooray for Harly!

Hooray...Harly's eyes are open now..he is 4 weeks old today and is growing soo beautifully. I can't wait to go visit him again and cuddle..and play with him..

I ( Corinna ) went to a wonderful Dog Show yesterday...and got to talk with a couple of Therapy Dog workers.very interesting to find out 1st hand what they do..and a few things to look out for..Most important is to socialiaze Harly with children...older folk...take him to as many different places as he is allowed..The 2 ladies I spoke with both do Reading Programmes with children..and thier dogs..were sooo sweet, gentle and so attentive.

I met also with the lady, Kirsten who will be training Harly for the 1st 8 weeks afer we bring him home... Puppy obedience class is also a very important part of the beginning stages of therapy dogs.. She is soo delightful and fun and I know Harly will just be such an obedient dog !!!!

Time is flying by..4 weeks on...5 more to go.. yahoo!!
