Love at first sight!

When Maddie’s trainer first laid eyes on her, he felt like he was watching the sunrise after a long, dark winter night. The kind of intensely beautiful event that leaves you speechless, and wanting to know more. Then begins the warm fuzzy feeling that starts deep in your heart and works its way into the rest of you… love at first sight!

He knew instantly, as you will, too, that she is like the sun, pulling everything near it into orbit, eagerly awaiting each new day to be near that radiance. After regaining his senses from being struck by Cupid’s Arrow, it was time to get down to business: bath time!

This lil gal was so overwhelmed he had to pick her up and carry her to the shower. So much to do, see, smell! Next came a good scrubbing, and after that he had to carry her to the drying off area. What a goober. But no complaints, because he actually had to fight off the urge to wrap her up in a cozy blanket and carry her around like the cute little baby she is.

Training wise, Maddie has come prepared for school! She has picked up her name quickly which leads us to believe this girl knows exactly who she is. So she’s one step ahead of the rest of us! And thanks to tasty treats such as beef liver tips, she even has grasped the concepts of heel, bed, and sit. Her retirement thus far is first rate, but just between us – if human retirement is all about beef liver tips, then no thanks! But for Maddie, that suits her just fine.

Til next week! Cheers from Team Maddie!
