  • This is great niece/nephew #12 for me, but this one's Mom and I are really close so THIS is the ONE that matters the most to me!

    My niece gave birth today to her first baby, a son! I got to spend 5 1/2 hours with him at the hospital. I'm so in love:D . Brought back lots of memories for me of when my babies were born. So tiny!!

    His grandma {my oldest sister} and grandpa are driving up tonight. They'll get to my house about midnight, but they want to get to the hospital first thing in the morning. This is their first grandchild, and they've waited a long time for him {my niece is 31}.

    We're all just a'twitter over here.

  • Congratulations! He's beautiful! Have fun with your sister - how special!!

  • Congrats!! To you & what a beautiful baby :D

  • Congratulations!

  • Congratulations!!!! What a handsome boy!!!!!!!!

  • Congratulations. He is adoreable!! What's his name?

  • Oh! hee hee forgot that!! His name is Rielly Isaac. {I don't care for the spelling, but …. he's not mine so I didn't get to vote, LOL}
    He was 8 lbs 5 oz, 20"

    His mom is a control freak who set up an elective C-section in order to avoid labor {can you believe they still do that? ANd she's a nurse!}, but God and Rielly showed her who is really in control -- he was born almost exactly 24 hours before the scheduled C-section! hee hee I told her, 'Welcome to parenthood. Now you know exactly how much control you have over your life. " hee

    They are adorable :) Watson always gets identified as some sort of terrier. He has been a rat terrier and a toy fox terrier…

    It seems to me there are a couple of issues here. I don't think a shelter wants just any JoeBloe walking in one day to say "hey I'd like to help by walking your dogs". The shelter needs to know something about its volunteers though a criminal check might be a bit much. If someone has been volunteering at a shelter for some time so the staff knows them and now new policies are being put into effect, then the shelter should have some sort of informational meeting/handout for all its volunteers so they know what and why. And even when volunteers have been accepted, some mini-training should be included for handling dogs. Many shelter dogs have been abused so I wouldn't want a volunteer who grew up under the "old" system of training with spanking and collar yerking now handling a special needs dog. Actual certification for dog walkers - no - the government intrudes enough.

    Something similar was at a big dog show in my area a few years ago. The one I ran my dog through had an A-frame and tunnels as well as the jumps and tire. It was a blast!

    Actually - I posted it on the Podengo group - lots of members in the area and looks like might be something from one of the hunt packs (or a golden GSD mix) Maybe one of them will bite.
