Former Racing Goddess

Hi, It’s Carmen, former Racing Goddess.  It’s been a few weeks since I decided to retire from the spotlight and chase my dream of settling down on some nice family’s warm, comfy, couch. So far things could not be better!  There is this guy who is my inmate trainer. He tells me his job is to teach me new commands that will help me to be a well-behaved family member.  To reach this goal we have what is called “training sessions”.  I really look forward to those because all I have to do is pay attention and I earn lots of treats and praise!  But, that’s not all! Get this, after we are done I get to pick out toys from this basket full of all sorts of cool stuff!  I prefer the tennis balls that squeak, but there’s something about biting the face of a stuffed fox or duck that I just can’t say no to.  When my inmate trainer says that playtime is over I just give him "The Look".  You know, the one with my soul filled eyes with the “Arms of an Angel” song playing in the air.  I totally have this guy wrapped around my paw!

I’m really looking forward to meeting my new family!  I sure do hope they have lots of squeaky balls!  Hey, a girl can dream can’t she?
