We found Wiley at a no-kill animal shelter called the Hillside SPCA in Pottsville, PA. He joined our family in July of 2011. Rescue dogs make the best pets; I would know. My family has had pound puppies my whole life and I am a better person because of it. This is a place we can share our stories and spread the word: get a rescue pet!

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">How many proms do you think I've attended? Two? Five? How about over 20!?! One of my favorite extra-curricular responsibilities as a teacher is chaperoning the prom. I'm not going to lie, the music is AWFUL. But it's not my prom, it's the students', and they seem to have more fun with every passing year. Nearly all of them danced the whole time, and the chocolate fountain was a big hit too. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Anyway. . . in honor of this year's prom season I've decided to devote a post to Wiley and Jenny in their spring finest. Our good friend Jenn, who has been making them a steady supply of "pretties" since the school year began, took some baseball fabric I found and really went to town with it. She made Wiley a bow-tie:</span></div>

My heritage is mostly Pennsylvania German with a healthy dose of Polish, and you know we like to celebrate our holidays stuffing our faces with food so there's no room for beer. BOL. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So tell me something. What do you know about <a href="http://www.nickjr.com/kids/paw-patrol/" target="_blank">Paw Patrol</a>? Because I have to tell you, up until yesterday I knew pretty much nothing about it, and Wiley assumed it just involved him hanging around waving his paws.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Now, if you have young children, you may know that Paw Patrol is a show on Nickelodeon. Wiley and I found out about it when our family's invite to a birthday party came in the mail last month. Of course once Wiley stole it, it got a bit hard for me to read. </span></div>

We have a large Polish-Catholic population, so during Lent the restaurant adds a little something to the menu for those who forego meat on Fridays! It's incredible.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Now, I know you're wondering, <i>Fluffy</i>? But Fluffy had just come from a haircut, so he wasn't totally living up to his name here. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> Fluffy, pictured above with Sadie's older sister Olivia, is from the same shelter Wiley came from, Hillside SPCA! All the food bowls used for decoration at the party will be dropped off at the shelter soon.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Overall it was a special day for a special girl, and I thought the theme might just be one worth passing along. Remember- adopt-don't shop! Happy Birthday Sadie!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Welp-it has been ages since we shared some love here. I missed the whole month of January! Yikes! I had planned on doing a few posts over my Christmas break and then my mom wound up in the hospital and one thing led to another and here we are. I was inspired to write a post today though because I just have too many cute Puppy Bowl-related images to not share them all in one place.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Now, if you don't mind too terribly much I think I'll catch you up on what we've been doing since the new year began. First we celebrated on New Year's Eve.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We even partied a little with Fanny and Leroy.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">In the span of less than a week, he licked my yogurt and berry smoothie while I was in the kitchen cleaning up spilled coffee, then casually wandered into the kitchen thinking I wouldn't notice.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Then he stole a 1/2 full container of Greek yogurt off the counter a few days later and I didn't notice until it was too late to do much about it. Guess he's into healthy eating these days.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">But he loves the snow so much that he stood directly in the path of the snow flying off the snowblower just because I was holding his ball and he was hoping I would throw it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It's no secret Wiley loves the snow, but the downside is that he is usually very demanding while we're out there trying to clean it up, barking at us to throw his ball. However, I must share his clever little trick he developed all on his own, to pass the time while we used the snowblower.</span></div>

We are finding little things to enjoy along with the way, and spending as much time with Daddy as possible before his college baseball season really gets going and we don't see him as much as we'd like.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">If you're an animal lover you are already well on your way to being a decent human being. And if you're a rescuer of pets, then you probably find yourself wanting to donate a bit more around the holidays. I've mentioned this before, but it is essential that you try to make sure your donations go to small or local organizations. Just donating to the Humane Society or other nationwide organizations has very little impact on the lives of pets in shelters. But you can donate directly to your local shelter and see the pets playing with the toys and eating the food you donated!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> Santa Wiley was feeling the Christmas spirit this year when he heard about the donation drive <a href="http://www.doggiestylepets.com/" target="_blank">Doggie Style</a> petstore was having. I've written about these stores before, <a href="http://getarescuedog.blogspot.com/2014/07/doggie-style-petstore.html" target="_blank">here</a>, but the short version is they are in Philadelphia, have a fantastic inventory, and showcase adoptable pets, like all pet stores should! They work with an organization called<a href="http://savedme.org/" target="_blank"> Saved Me</a>, formerly known as Operation Ava. When Wiley found out they were doing a donation drive in which the manufacturers of certain brands agreed to make a donation to shelter animals for items purchased, he immediately thought of our good friends Katie and Jackie, who live in Philadelphia just a few blocks away from the Passyunk Doggie Style store. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We sent a card to Katie and Jackie with some cash, and asked them to buy some gifts on Wiley and Jenny's behalf.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So, if you're anywhere around the Philly area, you can head to one of the <a href="http://www.doggiestylepets.com/" target="_blank">Doggie Style</a> locations, get your Christmas shopping done, and make donations in the process. If you don't live around Philly, you can still donate to <a href="http://savedme.org/donate/" target="_blank">Saved Me</a>. You can also order from Doggie Style and they will ship products to you! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Please remember your local shelters over the holiday season. The elves will be working extra hard but money can get pretty tight, and shelters can fill up after Christmas with puppies bought by people as gifts without realizing what being a responsible pet owner actually entails. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It's not every day that one gets to take a trip back in time to the days of King Henry VIII and the English Renaissance, but one of the perks of teaching high school English in Pennsylvania is we have a great Renaissance Faire in Manheim. Each year the senior English teacher and I take our AP Language, Literature, and 12th grade Honors classes to the Faire for the day, where we compete in the writing contest, in which we have had many winners, several 1st place! After about a dozen years of attending, we have seen nearly everything the Faire has to offer on its school days, although this year they switched to Henry VIII instead of Queen Elizabeth I, which was a nice change of pace. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The teacher I attend with is also an animal lover and mom to two dogs, Daisy and Dobby. Dobby is from the Hillside SPCA, which is the same shelter Wiley came from! Anyway she and I always head to the animal exhibits. For example, there is a greyhound rescue organization that usually has a stand at the Faire, and for the past few years there has been a "Court Jester" act with their Border Collies, who are "untrained" and thus run into the audience to try to steal turkey legs, and hilarity ensues.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> After we saw their show, we were heading around the fairgrounds when we came to a crowded venue and saw a man walking on a ladder in front of a small stage. Then this man was juggling on the ladder. It was impressive enough to get our cynical, seen-it-all-here attention, so we stood in the back. However, after the juggling was over, we heard some mumbling audio (we were in a bad spot) about dogs, and I took off like a shot, climbing over people to get right down to the front and leaving my other teacher-friend behind. BOL! (Bark out loud!) </span></div>

The act's name is Circus Stella, with two acrobats, Dextre and his wife Jana, and their five rescue dogs! In fact the act is named after Stella, seen below. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Dextre explained a bit more about what goes into training these rescues, and how he ran five miles a day for a few months with a rescue after he first got her, just to help her relax and learn to get out her nervous energy. He didn't even start the training until those months were over and she was in a better, calmer state of mind. But now look at these animals! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">They are all shelter dogs that so many people would have passed by. Just think how many people "have to" get a full-bred dog because they believe that's what they need to be able to train them. Circus Stella is proof that the right people, with the right hearts and talent, can find dogs in shelters who are destined for greatness! In saving their lives, they also gain talented and loyal co-stars and spread the great joy and value in rescuing animals! </span></div>

The show is really fun and you should check out their schedule to see if they're ever going to be performing around you. They travel all over the country. But more importantly they are doing an incredible service to their particular dogs and shelter dogs in general. Thank you Dextre for taking the time to talk with us and giving us something to talk about most of the way home. Wiley was a bit jealous when I showed him the shirt though. </span></div>

I will share them here on the blog. Here's Wiley's contribution from today, our second snow day so far this school year. I'm not thrilled about the weather, but he doesn't seem to mind. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Happy Thanksgiving friends of the blog! I have a number of cute things to share with you here. First of all, I thought you'd enjoy these behind the scenes pictures that led to the final picture shared up above. It all started when I went in to feed Jenny this morning and remembered I had a little pilgrim owl from last year. I sat on the bed waiting for her to eat, and when she finished she came over to rub on me. That's when Wiley came in and they checked each other out.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> I got the owl out, and Wiley posed with it once. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Then he grabbed it in his mouth, presumably to hold as ransom for a treat. I just sat still for a few moments and he gave up and laid down. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I did not put the owl in his paws in that position by the way. That's just the way it wound up. I realized if I played my cards right I just might be able to get them to pose together, which wasn't what I originally intended, but hey-they were almost being chummy. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">In the picture above, I'm pretty sure Wiley was thinking "Darn it cat! Stand still! We get the treats when we are still!" In the picture below he might want to eat her.</span></div>

I got some other good pictures of Wiley in some Thanksgiving accessories, such as these beeny-boppers.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I got his bowtie on Etsy from a new shop called <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/MisterButters" target="_blank">Mister Butters</a>. Guess what? Mister Butters is a rescue dog! In the interest of full disclosure, when I showed an interest in the bowtie the shop owner offered to expedite shipping to me at the same cost as regular shipping so I could get it in time for the holidays. You should check out Mister Butters's <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/MisterButters" target="_blank">shop</a> and get your pets some fancy bowties for Christmas! (And no-I don't get anything for free for saying that.)

<span style="font-size: large;"> I first introduced Rush <a href="http://getarescuedog.blogspot.com/2014/09/bijou.html" target="_blank">way back in September</a> when I wrote about what attracted Amy to greyhounds in the first place, and how bonded she became with Rush's sister Bijou.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Readers it is my great pleasure to share today's post. In honor of Veteran's Day, I want to share some information about <a href="http://warriorcanineconnection.org/how-we-help-warriors/infographic/" target="_blank">Warrior Canine Connection</a> with you. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I-gHKZkIEpA/VGFmlKbNu-I/AAAAAAAANyU/mYVR4c2ieRg/s1600/vet3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I-gHKZkIEpA/VGFmlKbNu-I/AAAAAAAANyU/mYVR4c2ieRg/s1600/vet3.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> I first learned about this organization when I read about a live "<a href="http://explore.org/live-cams/player/service-puppy-cam" target="_blank">Puppy Cam</a>," which is exactly what it sounds like. When a new litter of puppies is born, people can go to a live feed of the puppies doing puppy-like things. If the puppies have grown up and moved on to the next phase of their life, camera footage plays from previous litters. It is, in short, a beautiful thing that got me through a tough summer a few years ago after our dog crossed the Rainbow Bridge but before I could work up the nerve to get another one. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-X-3b5qGk-vY/VGFmla0JjBI/AAAAAAAANyc/Y9m4dGnhRdM/s1600/vet5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-X-3b5qGk-vY/VGFmla0JjBI/AAAAAAAANyc/Y9m4dGnhRdM/s1600/vet5.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Here's where the program gets even better. These puppies are then socialized and trained with the help of veterans who are having a difficult time coping with life post-deployment. Working with the puppies builds confidence in themselves and others, gives the Warriors a sense of purpose, reduces their anxiety, and increases the positivity in their lives.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PzBo4tXUr0o/VGFmlU6G0aI/AAAAAAAANyY/GP821YoRNJ8/s1600/vet4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PzBo4tXUr0o/VGFmlU6G0aI/AAAAAAAANyY/GP821YoRNJ8/s1600/vet4.jpg" height="400" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> But the Warrior Canine Connection doesn't stop their good work there. Once the puppies are trained and socialized properly, with some very specific skills in place, they are given to disabled veterans as service dogs! Isn't that a fantastic idea? Talk about capitalizing on all the very best things dogs have to offer!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This organization obviously makes for a great topic for Veterans Day, but I have an even deeper motivation. I kind of want to toot Wiley's horn a bit. You see, the Warrior Canine Connection mentioned a costume contest on their <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WarriorCanineConnection" target="_blank">Facebook </a>page as Halloween was approaching, and I entered Wiley. Well, as you might be able to guess, he won! And boy was he in some great company!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">His prize came in the mail about a week after Halloween. We were both impressed with the generosity of the Warrior Canine Connection. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I'm very excited to have a few reader-submitted pictures for the Halloween-themed blog. In fact, two of the dogs we're sharing here are rescues, and they're both named Petey! We need to get their stories for a future blog post of course. For now, meet Petey, who lives with Marisa's family. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So I've been trying my darnedest to get some good Halloween pics of Jenny. She is such a beautiful cat but boy does she hate to be dressed. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">They are two rescue cats whose stories we'll feature in the upcoming weeks. But for now, let's just acknowledge that Olaf is a bit more accommodating than Jenny when it comes to getting dressed up.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Poor Olaf. He's dressed up like the wrong Disney character for one thing! Although at least the Little Mermaid is close to his Nordic Hans Christian Andersen roots. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">While Hubs is tailgating at Penn State University, Wiley and I took advantage of a beautiful day to explore a new trail. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We had been to part of this trail last fall, and then for some reason or another we just sort of forgot about it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This time we went in the opposite direction of the way we went last year, and we were not disappointed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> The trail went about a mile right along the Schuylkill River, which you can see in the background of some of the pictures. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">On the other side of the path there were huge rocky outcroppings and some private property. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Eventually we came to a little bridge that crossed a tributary, and since the trail tapers off there we decided to turn around and head back. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">There is an ongoing project to add more miles of trail, and the path Wiley and I walk along on the island nearby is part of the trail system as well. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Since I'm going to share Wiley and Jenny on this post, and I got scratched by Jenny in the process of taking these pictures because I wasn't giving her treats quickly enough, this post is going to have to count for two days worth. Yes, I know that's sort of cheating, but I also know tomorrow will be very busy, and I won't get to update the blog. So this will have to do, and this is pretty stinking cute. </span></div>

On the site there are printable flyers and other suggestions for how to help. We know there's a child out there who needs us and we are just anxiously waiting for our connection.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I know my readers think Wiley is wonderfully patient for allowing me to dress him in so many silly things, but the truth is he is normally a lunatic. Carrots are the great motivator. They persuade him to do things he would otherwise never do, including wearing these Halloween socks.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I never thought I'd see the day he let me handle his feet long enough to get socks on.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">He hates to have his paws manipulated. It took months for me to be able to touch them after we first got him. Even the softest of touches would result in bared teeth.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Eventually I got him to let me trim some of the hair around them, and I can usually get a toenail or two clipped before the teeth make their appearance.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">But apparently he's down with the socks. He was surprisingly cooperative in wearing these witchy Halloween socks, and he got lots of little pieces of carrots for his troubles. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When I took Wiley on a nice long walk today I was partially motivated by the hopes of getting some good fall pictures, but on our regular trail there are still a lot of green trees. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Now, make sure you hear me loud and clearly. . . I'm not complaining. Green trees are a beautiful thing. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The elevation of the walking trail just isn't high enough and the nights haven't been quite cold enough to get most of the leaves turning. Although this gigantic one Wiley is standing on below is obviously quite yellow.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">How about a quick visit from Rosco for our fall-themed month of pictures? Rosco's story is one of the first I shared here, and just look at Rosco now. Here he is enjoying a fall camping trip at a nearby lake, soaking up the great outdoors.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This is a very short post today as the day has been super busy. We took our students to the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire on the field trip and I can't wait to write about all the animal-friendly things we saw today. However, I can't give it the time it deserves right now, so I'll just share this picture of Polka Dot, part of Fool Hearty, performers at the Faire. I have plenty more where this came from.</span> </div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Readers- it is so hard to get a decent picture of Wiley and Jenny together! SO HARD! It's hard to get a decent picture of Jenny to begin with. She never stops moving. And then Wiley gets anxious because she's moving all over the place and well. . . this is the best I've been able to do so far.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The good news is neither one of them seemed too afraid of their first experience with the balloons, so I can keep trying there.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Still, a year ago at this time this wouldn't have worked. I know, I tried. You can actually see her leaning away from him, while he looks petrified.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Also, look how long and healthy Jenny's fur has become since last year. Her coat is unbelievable. Sometimes I forget just how far she's come. . . how far they've come. Here they are trying to cuddle with me first thing in the morning, as I sit down to enjoy my coffee. She is on an ottoman, while he has sandwiched himself between me and the footstool.</span></div>

I am blessed, whether they'll pose for me or not.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Tonight was just going to be another picture of my adorable fur babies, until something . . . interesting happened on our walk today. As Wiley and I were walking along our river path we spotted something strange in the river.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My first thought was that Wiley would turn tail and run, given he is very afraid of any and all new things, especially ones that are alive and moving quickly. But he surprised me. As I paused to check it out, and he realized I was enjoying myself, he decided to join me.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Mojo was a gorgeous and well-trained dog having a blast with his human as she lobbed huge sticks into the river, and he took off at top speed to retrieve them all. I'm truly sorry I couldn't get a better picture, but at 6 o'clock on a cloudy evening the lighting was average, and Wiley was not up for getting any closer. So unfortunately my pictures don't do Mojo any justice.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Mojo's mom and I chatted from a distance, until he eventually saw Wiley and me and came trotting up the bank, huge sticks in his mouth, to investigate. He was incredibly calm and mellow, dropping his sticks to walk over to us. Although Wiley immediately went into neurotic mode, ears back, Mojo approached so slowly that Wiley remained "calm-ish," and by that I mean he didn't start pulling in the opposite direction. He and Mojo sniffed nose to nose for a brief second, and then Wiley walked behind my legs, and I pointed at Mojo's sticks and off he ran, back to playing. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">There is no doubt in my mind that Wiley's summer walks with his other dog friends have done wonders for his ability to be around other dogs, especially calm ones, without flipping out. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Three years. I've been working on socializing this dog for three years. It might be the slowest approach to socialization anyone has ever taken, but that's what happens when a neurotic, anxious, perfectionist is put in charge of the development of a neurotic, anxious, pessimist.
