What color thumb would you call that

You have heard of a green thumb, well I am not sure what color to call Ben's thumb. What the heck am I talking about, well, there is a good application in on Lindsey at the shelter. Yes, that makes the second dog that he has taken to training that it looks like will get adopted. We don't have training this weekend and graduation is the following weekend. If Lindsey get's adopted, she will likely be going home this weekend leaving him without a dog for dog training. I told him that he has to take over training Sandy so that she will get adopted too.

Seriously, it is wonderful if Lindsey gets adopted like Confetti did. It is after all what our work with the shelter is all about, but to be a little selfish, it would be really great for Ben to be able to complete class with Lindsey. He is doing really well with her.

We have our monthly Petco adoption day this Saturday again. I took Sandy last month and I intend to take her again this month. This month also has a 5th Saturday, so we do Petco Lakeline. I am trying to get more volunteers to that Sandy doesn't monopolize the adoption days, but she has been with the shelter for a few months including her time with us and she really needs the exposure to find a good forever family.

On another topic, it was really storming tonight, but she got bored, so out back she went. She wandered around looking for the dogs behind us to bark at and to generally see what was what and finally came back in soaking wet. Not quite as bad as the picture of her when I took her to the dog wash and definitely without the shampoo, but she was soaked but good. She seems a bit stir crazy so I gave her a Kong with frozen peanut butter in it and it seems to have her busy for a while. Hopefully we will have some nicer weather tomorrow and she can go out chasing squirrels.
