Daisy is growing! Today she is two days shy of 8 months and she weighs 80lbs. We had our first "real" snowfall last night, and she loved it. She romped all over, snowplowing with her nose and throwing her head up, trying to catch the falling snow. It was pretty funny. She has been very busy, completing basic obedience, and now involved in advanced obedience. We go to training 2x/week. On Saturday mornings we train with a group of service dog puppies (NEADS of Princeton, MA). The service dogs in the class are all Labs, and Daisy is ENORMOUS in comparison! We have gone to Target, Whole Foods, the pet store, Blockbuster, Best Buy, my local bank, Open House at the fire station etc, all the while meeting new people, making new friends. We have had some unexpected socialization opportunities too; like three groups of 10 - 20 tap dancers auditioning at the local high school and having to wait while the floor cleaning zamboni mopped the lobby. She is the sweetest dog and super-smart. We are all crazy-in-love with our Daisy!
