Here’s our girl, Sitka! It was very foggy in Duvall this morning when we walked up the driveway to see how our primroses fared through the frost…
We can tell that Sitka knows something is going on. First of all, the house is almost empty. Secondly, we have to “fence her in” in the dining room every night until she is completely dry before she is allowed to walk on the new carpet. And she has spent extra time in the closed garage this week while we have had open houses or real estate agents have come by with buyers.
So yesterday morning I treated her to a day at the new doggie spa! It is a brand new Duvall business called Best Buddy Dog Wash and it is a “self-serve” place to take your dog for a bath. You put your dog in a tub, turn on the hand held hose, wet her down and then select from 4 different organic shampoos. After shampooing there is a rinse, towel down and blow dry. Sitka did real well although she almost got out of her tub a couple of times! And now she smells like heaven.
Mike and I are doing our best to assure Sitka that she’s coming with us to Mexico. Now if we could just teach her a little Spanish…

After 3 years, Mr.Dog selectively understands Spanish. When La Muchacha is sweeping and she asks him to move, he does it, he also knows when she is offering him something. He pretty much ignores other people when they speak Spanish but not her.
Our neighbor who used to show dogs professionally trained his dogs in English, he said the words are shorter and sharper.
regards,
Theresa
