Angel Dog Whisperer

Finally, my angel dog whisperer, Janice, came to Colorado.  But, I had already moved to Arizona!  So, it took me a couple days to get there.  I stopped on the way in Santa Fe and stayed with my good friend, Karen.  Her Mom was visiting, so we all had a great time.  Moki was a good boy the whole time, and enjoyed being with his friend, Checkers.

I found a nicer motel this time than the last time I was in Boulder, which was good.  Last time I was right in the thick of things . . . plus I had to go down a dark staircase (dark at night, anyway) to walk Moki.  This time I was opposite a "mountain" and very close to a park.
Opposite the motel.

I met Janice for the first time on the evening that I arrived.  She invited me out to dinner with her and Jade and Janice's twelve-year-old nephew John.  I had already eaten, but I enjoyed their company and all of Janice's stories.  She's a riot.

The following day we got to work.  Moki and I and Janice took a long walk in the park.  I'm not going to go into the details of all that went on because it's all in my book!  Read it!  But, it was an extremely valuable learning experience.  The three days that I stayed in Boulder, Moki and I had so many positive experiences and I learned so much.  Moki and I were at a pet shop with people and dogs all around and there was a little episode in the parking lot of a western store and I had dinner with Temple Grandin!  It was all good.

I had thought that after we saw Janice, the angel dog whisperer, that we would both be completely healed.  But, the journey goes on.  When we got home, Moki and I had a small issue.  I realized a lot that day, which I wrote about in my book.  Sorry for the teasers, but I covered so much and don't want to go over it again now!  The book is now finished and will go to my editor tonight.  Hopefully, it will be published in about a month.
