it's already the middle of September.
might be perfect. we'll see. It's 90 degrees (out and in) only the fan on and i bake a pie.
Jan is talking on and off about training her new pup, Fix. She has a blog. And as she is, like i was saying, uh, well, focused, she blogs very specific things. Like about the livestock. about her dogs. They are English Shepards. Farm dogs. She flew to Boston to get Fix. From a very specific breeder.
anyway, she's beginning his training. She's beginning his training with the Place Command. "Teaching a dog to travel to a specific spot and then remain in that spot until released. It is easier for most people to teach than a solid stay, because the dog isn't required to remain in either a sit or down. This exercise consists of training 2 separate exercises then combining to a single. The first teaches the dog to remain in a designated spot until released. The second teaching the dog to travel to that designated spot." She uses a bath mat for this training. I'm going to get a bath mat at the Dollar Store on Monday. Tay is 3 now, oh, eee, maybe she's 4? i'll have to look, but i don't think we've been together 3 years?…or have we, well anyway, maybe she's too old for this. Fix is not even 6 months. And maybe we have too much of a Live and Let Live relationship. But it will be fun to try. Whether or not she buys it, she'll find it interesting that i'm saying stuff to her and dragging a bath mat around. IF she is into it, it will be the first step in her becoming a herding dog…which she can be on the Hill. so who knows?????
there are thread bead (Jude Hill) stars around the Moon. There is the first of something coming from under Her Flow, maybe a strand of Grass, Maybe a kind of Vertical Root? I don't know.
