A Picture that I Want for Christmas

Last year I saw a picture that my family's friend Kathleen took of a dog at a shelter.  I asked for a copy of that picture for Christmas.  I chose it because whenever I looked at it for awhile I started to get tears in my eyes.

This year I want this picture for Christmas because I don't know why.  I like looking at it the best.  I'm going to ask my parents to buy it - and frame it. 

  
 Which dogs in the gallery do you like?

This post was dictated by me to my mom.

What I Want to Be When I Grow Up (Part II)

If I become a dog breeder when I grow up, I will breed all kinds of dogs.

My first dog that I would breed would be a Rolly, a mix between a Rottweiler and a Collie, because my brother's favorite dog is a Rottweiler and my favorite is a Collie.
 



The second dog I would be breed would be a Miniature Husky.  I know I would use a Husky; I'm pretty sure I would use a Samoyed for the second dog because I need a smaller dog.  And I like Samoyeds because they are like Huskies but smaller.


 
What kinds of dogs would you breed?  Remember they can be more than just two dogs.

Seeing-Eye Dogs

Dogs have to go through guide dog training to become a guide dog.  Some dogs don't graduate because they don't have the right personality. 

I decided to write about guide dogs because it just came to me.   And because in school, in our social justice class, a blind woman came and brought her guide dog named Emmy; she was a Labrador Retriever.  She liked her dog a lot.   Our social justice teacher said the three best guide dogs are:  Labrador retrievers, Golden retrievers, and German shepherds. 

If I were blind, I would probably have a guide dog instead of a cane because I love dogs and I think a dog would be able to actually see where I am walking and  a cane can't see at all.

Flyball


Flyball is a sport for dogs.  It's like a race, but for dogs.  The clip you can watch below is about flyball and how it works.  I watched it 4x and I liked the music a lot.
