Shenanigans!
Bridgit left NWESC for her new foster home on Wednesday, where she made the acquaintance of our good friend Moonshine. The two youngsters hit it off right away! But Jackie awoke the next morning to find Miss Bridgit had had a little too much fun the night before!
Jewel Update

Training Update: Rosie

Training Update: Anderson
I don’t know if I will be able to put into words how pleased I am with the work Joel Conner did with Anderson. Anderson and I had hit a pretty hard spot in our training this last summer and while I loved working with him, I knew that he needed a better hand to get him…
