One of the sad things about growing up for me was how unfun mail became …
bills, notices, requests for money .. I’d bet less than 10 percent of my mail comes close to approximating fun now …
Today was different though … I got a medium sized envelope from South Lyons, MI – home of CPE.
Inside that AIRMAIL, DO NOT BEND envelope there were certificates
Thea’s CL1-R (Standard) and CL1-F (fun*) certificates arrived and so did
Sally’s CL1-S (Strategy), CL1-H (Handler) and CL1-F (fun again – how fitting!) certificates.
Thea could now, if I put initials after my dogs names, wear “Thea CL1” with pride – she’s earned all the cpe level 1 titles – at least I think that’s what the title is once they are all done
CPE only updates the website once a year if you don’t keep membership up .. but they do send the certificates as earned – very nice little pick me up today!!
I actually missed class this week – worked too late and felt too punk when I got home
Thea is home again … we haven’t done anything yet but love on her but we are all enjoying that!!
* isn’t that a great title name?
Nice pick me up for sure 🙂
Clever title for your post too!
I thought this year was the year I'd try CPE, but sadly I waited a year too late, none being offered within a two hour drive of Ottawa, I think. Where do you go for your CPE trials?
We just got a couple CPE titles in the mail too.
Congrats on Thea finishing level 1!
Lisa – Absolute Agility used to have cpe – I LOVED them – hope they repeat soon
a bunch of eastern cpe folk are trying to get me going to the states for cpe but one day is usually the most I can sneak away for so I haven't done that yet
Acton (Hamiliton) is the other spot I do cpe .. too far for you …
I'd like to host a trial in Prince edward county – hoping to get it organized for next summer actually but not sure I'll be able to ..
Sara – very cool 🙂
Yeah, it was AARF I was hoping to go to this year for some CPE… sadly due to lack of entries in past years she didn't offer CPE this year…
Hosting a trial in Prince Edward county? Cool!! 🙂
