Hello people: Hope you are having a good weekend. My family went to the mountains yesterday to play in the snow. That's my sister Teagan. Afterwards we went thru the nature center and got to meet and greet some kids. This morning we went to church and I was very quiet. After service, I was allowed to greet some more kids. I am working on my "shake" but not getting it yet. Hope you all have a good afternoon. Raisen

Saturday February 4, 2012 we went to the Lions MD-4 convention in Ontario. The Theme: “LIONS EXPANDING COMMUNITY SERVICE”. My foster Dad Jim did a presentation with me for a group of Lions Project for Canince Companions for Independence. Lions support CCI in a number of ways. The Batchelor's by being CCI Puppy Raisers and different Lions Clubs from all across the country, send in donations to LPCCI.

January 30, 2012 Mr. Matsler arranged for a Lions Project CCI program at the elementary school next to La Sierra where he teaches. There were 3 CCI puppies at various levels of training. I was the youngest. There were 4 CCI puppy Raisers there and Mr. Matsler ran a slide show and then we did some commands . Then, everyone had to ask first if they could pet us, but we were allowed to greet many many kids. We were all very good.

This is a picture of my lumpy nose. I think it was a bee that got me. My nose and eyes swelled really fast. Some ice packs and anithistmine and I was good as new in a few hours.

Ok people, take care. Raisen

I got to the the Board of Realtors for a MLS Marketing meeting on th 31st of January. Big meeting and everybody wanted to pet me. I had to do a down and stay quiet while the meeting was going on. I did get to say hi to a few Realtors before we went to the office. See you later. Okee people be good to one another. Raisen
