Want to Reconnet after long MIA

[Joy Originator of GiantSchnoodles]

Hi everyone, I've been MIA with too much to tell. But I realize, whiile being hyperfocused on goal oriented activities, I miss the humor & support of my doodle friends.I'm hyperfocused on building CaringTown Inc. Non profit for training trainers  & service dogs for alter-abled people (often misnomered as disabled) . I am going forward despite many barriers being thrown in the way. One of them being code enforcement.which landed me in court yesterday. Don't stop reading. HERE'S THE FUNNY PART:

So I"m talking, the judge is talking blah blah blah. Everyone in the place is stern & serious. A smile would crack their faces. Xena, my Giant Schnoodle Service dog is very bored. Xena is there to keep me from falling on my face. (I use her for balance) . So Xena falls asleep. "Blah blah blah" I'm hearing strange noises. I look down. Xena is having the nightmares that I would be having if I wasn't required to be awake. LOUD NIGHTMARES! Chasing a rabbit, I think. Even the judge had to allow a teeny tiny 1/2 sort of almost smile (only one side of his mouth mind you) . I took a deep breath so I wouldn't burst out laughing out loud!  I wish you guys were there. We could have brought the house down. I don't know how all those people can stay all stern & miserable in their work place every day. Sheesh!  But I'm so glad I had Xena with me. Dogs make bad things better.

Are my old friends out there? Pls respond & let me know your still there, still love me, well maybe like me or maybe not hate me. I realize how much I miss you & need you. Its one thing to focus & accomplish but I realized I'm out of balance. How much can you you balance, all my old friends & new friends?

New, Upcoming Products. Opinions pls:

1. BTW. while MIA, I've invented a few products I'm proud of. They aren't on the market yet but soon, I hope. I invented a treatment for beef bones that makes them into pumice bones. They clean dog's teeth. No need for brushing or scaling by expensive vet treatments with general anasthetics. Its a great product but a couple of challenges are slowing down progress to getting it on the market. Suggestions welcome: Natural bones are too heavy so cost of shipping is too high, keeping sales local. Are there any new companies in the transportation market? Also, I'm searching for packaging so they don't require refrigeration. This gets in the way of national distribution. Any suggestions?

2. Eureka! Overnight success! I've only been working on it for 7 years! Rodent repeller. Repells rodents from homes, offices, grain bins etc.  No poison, glue boards, mangled little bodies to remove from traps every morning. It doesn't harm pets, kids, environment. It doesn't even harm the rodents. You train instead of maim. The rodents no longer enter. Those who remember me know I'm a trainer. But who ever thought I'd be training people to train rodents? !!! I'm hoping it will be ready to go to market in the next month. Send me positive energy pls. Its never easy to launch a new product. There are so many details & challenges to overcome.

3. CampStamp http://www.Campstamp.com , my invention that has been between me & starvation for the last 25 yrs, is still on the market. Camp Stamp is a marker for stamping kids clothes when they go to camp instead of ironing on lables or messy pens. There is a Free book on that site that I wrote on How to Prepare Your Child For Camp. Enjoy. I hope it makes your life easier.

4. Also, one of my training books is ready, just needs a web store: The Easy Lazy, Quick, Potty Training for Busy Puppy Parents. 

5. I plan to open a doggy stuff web store. What do you think of the name: PetMarche.com  Does anyone except Canadians & the French know what that means? Your honest opinion pls.

Well I've talked more that I planned. Good to connect again. Hope I hear from all my old friends, new friends, marketing experts, business experts & more.

Hi Joy...happy to meet you...glad you're back on DK!

[Joy Originator of GiantSchnoodles]

HI Miss Ellie, Thx for the welcome. 

[Sally S Miles]

Wow - very impressive was to keep busy.   I love the chariot and the dogs are gorgeous!  Thank you for doing what you are doing - rock on.

I've seen dogs trained to alert for diabetes, epilepsy, and heard of other possibilities- the nuts makes sense.  It's fascinating and I am interested in keeping up with this. 

Can your new invention teach the moles to go away -far away?

[Joy Originator of GiantSchnoodles]

Hi Sally, Thx for your kind words & encouragement.

Good question. We have a horrible mole problem this year. I haven't worked on that . So far I've developed the Rodent Repeller for inside homes, offices, grain bins, silos etc. The problem with rodents is they are extremely smart. They get used to whatever repeller is used. So my system depends on train instead of maim. The homeowner actually trains the rodents not to enter enclosed spaces. Home Depot is interested in it. I hope it flies.

Thanks Joy - I just love it!!! I mobility issues and the chariot is the absolute coolest - we have seen a couple of people with dogs pulling them around and mostly just out for exercise.   I absolutely love it,   My husband said that is the best thing for me, ahhh, yes = could get around and be surrounded by canines at the same time. Bravo.

Moles - sigh. They are a true pest. So glad that Home Depot is interested, that means big things happening for you. 

[Joy Originator of GiantSchnoodles]

There is this bicycle thing, low to the ground that dogs pull on either side of you, recently invented & on the market (not my invention sob). It's on my wish list. I would so love to have one. Your really close to your dogs with that device.

 The chariot was my way out of the wheelchair. When I became determined to lose the wheelchair, I had to look deep into myself & ask, "how is the wheelchair serving me?" I hated the wheelchair, but I had to admit the one thing I liked about it was my dog pulling me. I was doing everything I could for my physical disabilities but I had to find a replacement for my emotional dependence. It was the chariot.  Puppy love from Inventing Joy & Furry Folk

Hi Sally, Are your dogs pulling you yet?Where R U located? We have a teacher in San Diego. Puppy love from Inventing Joy & Furry folk

Re moles, I'm still workiing on rats. Haven't got around to moles yet. The thing is, it isn't enough to have something that works. I have to come up with a customer apealable, saleable design, packagiing etc. pass electric requirements. etc.at a suitable price point.  A friend watching me work once said, " I never realized so much work went into creating  junk mail, lousy instructions, junky looking packages etc." LOL PUppy love from Inventing Joy & Furry folk HOw many new words did I coin in 1 paragraph?
