Students and Belts

This morning I was walking Kraymerica per usual. I saw a person with a dog approaching so I quickly moved across the narrow street knowing my Kraymers lunging habits. I said hello to the person, and she looked at me and said “Kristy? I am in your class Tuesday nights.” WOW! I said oh my gosh hi! Hi Beau! (her dogs name) Kraymer was sitting by my side (I WAS SO PROUD!) and Beau’s mom noticed and said wow, he’s good. I said oh thanks, this is the aggressive Kraymer I talk about in class. I am sure she had a moment of disbelief. Then Krayms came into action and started lunging and freaking the heck out. I said ok, we’re gonna get going now. Hahaha I ALMOST had a “wow, she must be a great trainer because look at her dog!” moment, alas, Kraymerica wanted to keep it real. And I am quite ok with that. Haha It was funny though for sure. Turns out the lady lives near me though. Kinda cool!

It always gave me a certain satisfaction to see dog trainers with out of control dogs. I know that sounds horrible, but it did. When I met the area trainers dog I was astounded when he wouldn’t look at her when she said watch me. I was like Seriously??? I thought it was funny and I liked it. I was like good, I don’t feel so bad having a growling lunging mess of a dog while trying to be a trainer. As it turns out it’s quite common for dog trainers to have crazy ass dogs. I like to think of it as we like "challenges". Yeah, that's it. Hehe

I have a meeting with the big boss tomorrow about cutting Mondays here outta my life. I am not holding my breath but MAN that would be freakin awesome. We shall see what transpires.

So with the part time job comes a uniform requirement. I have to wear a belt. I hate belts, really. I sucked it up and got one though. At the time it was bought it did not fit. When I started training on my own it did fit at the first belt hole. On Tuesday night I put it on and to my surprise it went to the second hole. WAHOO! I love it. Progress is being made.

Well that’s all peeps. Happy Thursday!
