Career Day...

Well we survived... and enjoyed every minute of it.
Sheba & I were part of Career Day for Grades 1 to 6 in our town here. We were given 15 minutes to talk about our Careers and then open up the floor for questions with each grade. Sheba was a good little trooper and handled the cyclone of energy that entered each time a new class came into the room as well was a good demo dog for properly greeting a friendly dog to end our sessions. Clearly a hit with the kids ( what puppy isn't ) The kids had good questions about Dog Training & Grooming as a career. Generally the kids were just as eager to talk about their dogs at home and shared stories.
The biggest challenge actually was not to have some kids dominate question period and encourage the quiet ones of the group to stick up their hands and ask a question.
Sheba provided entertainment value as she made a toy out of anything offered to her. A few of the Grades had previous dog class students of mine so I invited them to be part of the demo for teaching basic obedience.
Have one tired puppy sleeping off her big afternoon....
