Shyla Saturday

Life is discombobulated with all the moving to and fro. But, Shyla always makes me smile. She will chase sticks for as long as I can throw them, and her enthusiasm makes me grin.

I grin even more because I know that it was a long journey to reach a point where she can leave her worries behind and play joyfully. I remember when her previous owner told me that Shyla was "useless" at retrieving. With years of building her confidence, she loves retrieving more than almost anything.

Happy Shyla Saturday!

  8. Shyla's previous owner is 'useless'. How dare she speak such words w/o even trying.

  12. We love hearing how happy Shyla is. Timber is very good at retrieving a ball. He just needs to drop it a little more gently so it stays at my feet and not bounce across the room. Misty will chase the ball - just to see where it went, then she trots back to me without the ball:) Lightning - nope, he is not into retrieving at all.
