Hi Mary Ann,

CONGRATULATIONS! I don't know how I missed this thread but what positive and refreshing news. I'm so happy for you and for Monty as I'm sure you'll be a great owner/partner.

Let us know what the 30 hours of training will entail. I'm very interested in your story.

I'm not too awful far from you as I live in Richmond, VA. Salem is a beautiful part of the state and you actually get "SNOW!"

This is so exciting as I'm a dog lover too. I have a Jack Russell named Pongo from WD's 101 Dalmations, and a white West Highland Terrier named Belle from WD's Beauty and the Beast. They take good care of me as I'm homebound.

I LOVE DOGS!
