[Ricki and Tara (doodle)]

MEDFORD, OREGON!!! WOO HOO!!!

Yes, the HOPELESS DOODLE ADDICT TROPHY made its way across the plains, over the Rocky Mountains and slid right into Oregon landing on my porch!! Along with the Trophy and its journal came some awesome gifts from Jennifer, Cloe and Myla. Tara received a frisbee. a stuffie giraffe, a tug rope, one of her favorite balls and LIVER TREATS!!!  They sent me a beautiful personalized mug and magnet with Tara's pictures on them and a taste of Wisconsin! Yes, Wisconsin tastes like chocolate!!!! LOL! Even our honorary DoodleCat, Amber received some catnips toys from Spunky( Jennifer's kitty)!!! The furkids thought that SantaDoodle had arrived early!!

 

 

Tara and I thought we would take Trophy on a little tour of Medford and show it some of the ways our lives have been changed for the BETTER since we joined DoodleKisses!

 

First stop was Tara's EX-GROOMER'S shop!! Thanks to the DK Doodle Grooming Group I no longer have to worry about having a RatDoodle or a PoodleDoodle now that I am learning to Home Groom Tara!!!

 

Our next stop with Trophy was Tara's EX-TRAINER'S SHOP!! This is where Tara was labeled a BITER and became a puppy class drop out!!!! I decided to home school her and thanks to the DK

Training-Experiences, Challenges and Mindsets Group, I received the rewards and corrections I needed to train Tara into an awesome little obedient girl!! (Please note the perfect sit stay she is holding in the photo!! Proud Doodle mommy!! :)

 

Next up was the LOCAL DOG PARK (Sherri, I promise I won't mentioned dog parks again for at least another week! LOL!). Our fellow DK'ers taught us that there are GOOD dog parks and BAD dog parks.  Unfortunately our local park received a thumbs down rating! Thanks Dk'ers for helping me keep TaraBear safe!!

 

Of course we had to take Trophy to Tara's favorite pet store, PET COUNTRY where, thanks to all the fantastic advice and information we have received from the DK FOOD GROUP we can shop with confidence knowing that Tara is receiving the best foods and treats and safe toys! Just say "NO" to China!!!

 

 

So we finally headed for home...but wait...we are almost home when I realize that the little trophy is not in its little cubby hole in the car!! WTD???? OMG!! I LEFT the HDA Trophy behind at the store!!!! I nearly ran off the road as I had visions of Adina hitting the" EJECT RICKI AND TARA FROM DK FOREVER BUTTON"  for losing the HDA trophy!!!  I raced home and called the store...and YES the clerk had the Trophy and YES she was having a great time using it to fool her fellow employees into thinking that she had received the "Employee of the Month" award!  WHEW!!!! I hadn't realized that I had stopped breathing about 10 minutes earlier!!  Soon we had the HDA Trophy back in the hands of  this HOPELESS DOODLE ADDICT and all was well...:)

 

 

A BIG THANK YOU to each and every one of YOU for making DOODLEKISSES such a wonderful place to visit and so ADDICTIVE!!!   I mean on what other web site can you find everything from dog poop to limericks?? LOL!! I AM HOPELESSLY addicted to DOODLES and DOODLEKISSES!!!

 

Now, I wonder who the HOPELESS DOODLE ADDICT TROPHY will be visiting next....?????

Congratulations Ricki and Tara, what wonderful examples of everything I need to know I learned on DoodleKissses. Glad you found the trophy, you may never have been able to show your face on DK again if you had lost it. LOL Then you wouldn't be a Hopeless Doodle Addict, you'd just be hopeless.
