Hello & Goodbye

Tonight`s meeting was the one I was dreading all along. Why you may ask? Well we had to say hello to the puppies which was great, but than came the goodbye`s. Becky, Kelsey Emily, and I reading the Hello Poem to (L-R) Amato, Burgess, and Focus.
Than after that came the worst having to say the goodbye poem. I was happy to have Emily and Kelsey right by my side as it pry would have been worse if it was just me. I think I did quite well as far as crying a little bit, but not bad.
We received flowers from our leaders as well as the certificate and pin.

These last two pictures were from Focus`s first meeting.

Our entire club, except Morgana. Top Row: Burgess, Amato, & Focus Bottom Row: Suede, Spike, Orwell, DeSoto, & Fantom. Overall the meeting was very good. I will post more on the actual goodbye.

Good luck with recall! Too bad we have to do it on separate days, but I'm sure you'll do fine alone.

One word: Sad. :(

At least you got to read the hello poem to balance out the sadness. Have fun on Sunday...not. ;) Recall is always terrible, especially on your first dog. I'll be thinking of you and Emily and Kelsey this weekend!
