The Greatest Opportunity!!

In a nut shell I ran smack in the middle of a gun open house at an outdoor store while posting puppy and tracking flyers. I "accidentally" got into a conversation with a Remington Rep. Long story short...Hank (the puppies dad) and I are going to a special three day hunt to Track for Handicapped Hunters. I'm so excited. 1. To be able to help out 2. For Hank to get more experience and training 3. to Get more Exposure 4. To get Exposure to Remington Arms. He asked about using our help and I immediate jumped and said I'll BE THERE!! My boss is going to rearrange the one day so I can have a vacation day and the next two days Im off. - Oh and did I mention he is interested in one of my pups, and for ME to train him for him I volunteered all our time. He is GIVING us a child size gunstock we have been looking for, for hubbys grandaughter to use. Its going to be so cool to help these guys out. I love it when Handicapped people get as much opportunity as possible to feel "normal" in Life.

Congratulations, that is really great. I have 10 dogs that I train and compete with. I understand how great it can be to get to work with them and find a great opportunity.

I missed this when you originally posted this. It sounds great. Of course I understand half of what you are talking about but I know you are happy so it's gotta' be good.

Have fun.
