The difference a week makes!

WOW!  Butley can now earn a whole meal in five minutes or less, having learned at least the following (which won't mean much to you) but means something to him:

Spin
Twirl
Around, finish right
Finish right
Go through right
Go through left
Finish left

That would be seven (7!) new things and, by golly, he is happy to do them and eat!  Quickly!  Training time has been reduced from some un-Godly amount of time to mere minutes.

Butley also got his allergy shot last night.  A bit confusing, the notes about left and right and different dosages and two different (but exactly the same) vials started.  Anyway, he got one dose, between the shoulder blades, .65 (or whatever the instructions said) of the blue stuff.  Neither left, nor right, SQ, not IM or IV.  He's still alive and hungry, so I guess all is good.   

Coming soon:  the arrival of Dixie B (I'll post pictures) on Wednesday?!?  I dunno, I'll have to get in touch with Andy.  Then we will have the following:  Catahoula, Catahoula, Pit Bull and Labrador Retriever.  For 10 days or so as Dixie B returns to her home just before Spring Break and all the fun that will be :)  And in case you are wondering what the B stands for...well, one good guess should answer that.
