Idea A Little Update

Hi Guys!!!

I'm terribly sorry for not being around much lately and for not adding new lessons to the website.

Here in Ontario Canada, we get lots of snow and freezing cold temperatures. This is a big bummer for engraving stones outside. So I have been dedicating my time and efforts to finding a temporary job.

Thanks for understanding!

Jean & the Dogs.

You can always start selling Dog Training Videos, and dog toys!!! You do such a great job with this site I'm sure something will come your way.

no need to apologize Jean, you're doing a great job with this website and it's taking on a life of its own!

I hope you find a job that is more, how shall we say, comfortable!

I agree with Mopar - I think selling dog training videos and those tough tug toys you make would be cool!

Thanks guys!

I've thought about selling training videos, but the main reason I made this website free was so that anybody could have access to the information. I've always pictured children or a child trying to train his dog to do tricks, but can't because he doesn't know how.

Perhaps later on, I could make the advanced levels as a pay per month or something similiar.

Thanks for your support.

Actually, I told a 13 year old girl about the site and she's using it to train her dog, Laila (Hebrew for Night).

I heard on the news last night that some parts of Canada were having electricity blackouts, caused by the really quite terrible weather they are having. As we haven't seen Jean for a few days, I fear he may be a victim of this.

Hehe, We did get a pretty big snow storm up here, but it was nothing my snow plow couldn’t handle! I was fortunate not to have any electricity blackout. The main reason I’ve been away is because I got myself a Nintendo Wii for Christmas and have been playing that a lot! hehehe

Good luck with the job hunting, Jean. Job hunting is no fun. I've been doing a lot of that lately. I need a part-time job so I can still go to school but take care of all my animals. Hope to see you back soon, but if we don't, hopefully it's because you're working. Lots of great new members here! Best of luck to you.

Just wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful site and for the new friends I've made!

My 7 year old daughter is in 4H and will be taking 1 or 2 of our dogs, so she is working with me on how to train!! She is so excited!!
What about the toys you make---I haven't found them yet!!
Good Luck job hunting.....I work to support my "animal habit" *lol* and the all natural vitamins I buy for them!!! I love 'em!!!
Thanks Again!!
