Happy, four of my dogs were,in the mini van... Three adult girls and the puppy,Gabby., Gabby was in a crate,in the back, so,when the SUV hit,me, it pushed me into a tractor trailer,also,turning left... The side Gabby was on ran into the tractor trailer. Her crate was collapsed on five sides with glass inside the crate. She is very nervous in the car since that... I have ordered DAP spray to try to help her stress...

Goodness!!! I bet you were desparate to get to your dogs.....Hopefully, Gabby will eventually get over the trauma although it may take you a long time.

That would be half Grand aunt and her half grand niece or something like that.. Modeling is not easy and is very time consuming and oh yes, the pay is minimal for the effort....

Thank you Lucky Penny.... And Tiki is Luna's mom. That photo is ancient as it was taken before my son played U-14 soccer and he is now, 18.5 years....

Jodie, I wish I had started Mantha earlier. She is so biddable, but at 10.5 years, I don't want to put a potential strain on her body. If I had taught her to jump,etc at a younger age, I wouldn't hesitate. So now, I have her granddaughter to work with. I may start working with her daughter and my Emmie is always a work in progress....

I know what you mean about being careful, I know there's plenty of dogs out there still competing when they are older, but Conner always seemed older than he is and I don't want to risk an injury on him. The new classes have 1/2 jump heights, so I'm hoping he'll be able to handle a 12 inch jump just fine, but if not we did had an amazing few years competing together. Flip is built much lighter than Conner so hopefully it won't be as much of an issue for him.
