Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Puppies have been doing great this week. Dean ate a few little things he shouldn’t just pieces off toys that all came out. Sammie has been very good. Dean got picked on at the park the other day, he did not like but he handled it well and has gone back to the park happily. Tomorrow he goes to take his Canine Good Citizen test, so fingers crossed he passes. His trainer is sure he will. I really hope he does, I am nervous.

“Yeah well, I’ve never had much opportunity to fight with family,” I said.
“I have,” she said. “Everyone cares about everyone else. So when you get mad and say something horrible, it hurts that much more. And too many things go unsaid. That’s the worst, I think. Everyone thinks they know one another better than they probably do, so you fill in the silences with things the other person never actually said. Or thought. Or thought about saying.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

On to this weeks teaser…In this weeks puppy chronicles LOL they managed to get into the pantry and get a costco sized bottle of syrup while I was at work . To much sugar is a laxative for dogs…so I had syrup mess to clean up and two puppies that needed to go outside frequently all night. Thankfully only one small accident inside, bless them. They are fine and have been. Ran full bore at the puppy park Sunday and had a great walk yesterday. So all is well, but man Dean was acting like he was dying with his upset tummy.

“When you healed my arm…You didn’t need to bargain with me. You could have demanded every single week of the year.” My brows knit together as he turned, already half-consumed by the dark. “Every single week, and I would have said yes.” It wasn’t entirely a question, but I needed the answer.
A half smile appeared on his sensuous lips. “I know,” he said, and vanished.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. The pups have been having a blast at the puppy park since we have been able to go back. Dean played so hard yesterday he tweaked his paw a little bit. Thankfully when I talked to the vet over the phone (because I am now paranoid lol) she said it sounded like just a little pull and to keep an eye on him but likely nothing to worry about. He was up and running on it again within two minutes. He is also a bit of a dramatic baby. Puppies eh?

On to this weeks teaser…

“You look . . . better than before.”
Was that a compliment? I could have sworn Lucien gave Tamlin an encouraging nod.

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Sammie is doing great, she can start going back to the puppy park tomorrow evening per the vet. I am very happy about that she has been a bundle of energy! I hope she never gives me a scare like that again. I am just glad she is good, healed and her happy self. Her and Dean don’t like I keep taking toys from them when they rip them LOL but I am taking zero chances. New Years was good, it sounded like a war zone around here but thankfully the puppies didn’t mind to much. Only a couple super loud ones made them bark a bit.

On to this weeks teaser…

“Well, good-bye for now,” he said, rolling his neck as if we hadn’t been talking about anything important at all. He bowed at the waist, those wings vanishing entirely, and had begun to fade into the nearest shadow when he went rigid.
His eyes locked on mine wide and wild, and his nostrils flared. Shock—pure shock flashed across his features at whatever he saw on my face, and he stumbled back a step. Actually stumbled.
“What is—” I began.
He disappeared—simply disappeared, not a shadow in sight—into the crisp air.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Thank you for keeping my Sammie in your thoughts. She came through the surgery with flying colors. The vet was very happy with the procedure and her entire team day and night fell in love with her. Every single person I spoke with could not say enough how sweet she was. She started eating was soon as they offered her some food in recovery. She did everything they asked her like a champ. We were able to visit her later in the day on Christmas Eve and she was in good spirits. She got to come home on Christmas Day. It was not the Christmas I expected but it was a fantastic Christmas anyways because she was home with us. She has continued to recover very well here at home. She hates the cone of shame but wears it when I am at work (when I am home she just wears her surgery suit) and most of all she hates that she can’t rough house or run with her brother. She also is not a fan of the rice in the bland diet. Here is hoping New years Eve is much less adventurous for us, LOL.

On to this weeks teaser…

“Cerberus,” I said promptly. “But everyone knows that.” “Do you know what it means?” I opened my mouth and closed it again. I shook my head. “It is from an ancient word, kerberos. It means ‘spotted.’” I blinked. “You’re a genuine Greek god. You’re the Lord of the Underworld. And . . . you named your dog Spot?” “Who’s a good dog?” Hades said, scratching the third head behind the ears, and making the beast’s mouth drop open in a doggy grin. “Spot is. Yes, he is.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. My teaser won’t be new this week. I am just putting the post up and this little update. Sammie graduated advanced training Sunday. I am so proud of her. Sadly, she ate something either late Sunday (most likely) or early early Monday and has an obstruction. She is at the emergency vet in the ICU having major surgery as I type this at almost 4am. Please keep her in your thoughts and whomever you pray to. This is not how I expected her first Christmas to go. She has a fantastic team. This is still a very very major survey and I am terrified.

“Because even if they are doing something immoral, I’d be an idiot to start criticizing them for it if I wasn’t perfect myself. Smoking is self-destructive. Drinking is self-destructive. Losing your temper and yelling at people is wrong. Lying is wrong. Cheating is wrong. Stealing is wrong. But people do that stuff all the time. Soon as I figure out how to be a perfect human being, then I’m qualified to go lecture other people about how they live their lives.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone! Surgery went great for both pups. Dean is nearly 72lbs and Sammie is nearly 60. The vet staff was amused (in a very loving way) that the bigger one was also the “chicken”. He would not come out of the kennel to get his sedation shot. He just sat in the corner and cried. Until they brought Sammie out then he followed her right along. Got his shot and all went well. I did warn them that Dean was a big baby and a mama’s boy but he would pretty much go anywhere with his sister. So I am glad they took that note. Recovery is going well. Although today they both chewed the straps off their surgery suits. I did threaten them with putting the cones of shame back on (they only had the cones on for the car ride home lol) but honestly neither one of them have showing any interest in the surgical spots at all. So I think we will just be monitoring for now and I will play by ear if I need to try and repair the suits or put the cones on.

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone! We seem to have cracked the code on getting Dean to stay. He is becoming more consistent after literally taking it back to baby steps. He is a velcro dog, which will be great for his service dog work when he’s bigger but bad when he needs to stay to pass canine good citizen lol. I was able to get 20 feet away from him at home though using our new method before he got anxious. So fingers crossed. He will however be missing class this week (he will get a makeup class) because today Dean and Sammie are off to the vet for spay and neuter surgery. Sammie can go to class as she will be 5 full days out but it would be too early for Dean. We will still work at home though for a short session on Thursday and longer ones after that until school again. I am a bundle of nerves about surgery day but I am sure they will be fine and its for their own good and health.

On to this weeks teaser…

“Thomas opened the throttle all the way and passed me, I kid you not, a shiny brass telescope.
“Seriously?” I asked him.
“Ever since those pirate movies came out, they’re everywhere,” he said. “I’ve got a sextant, too.”
“Any tent you have is a sex tent,” I muttered darkly, extending the telescope.
Thomas smirked.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone! First week of advanced puppy classes went really well! Yay puppy class again lol puppy class and puppy training is my life lately. I will be glad when the intense basics are done, but that won’t be the end of it. Since my pups are destined to be my service dogs, and possibly therapy dogs to visit hospitals and old assisted living places (we have so many here). IMO that will be more fine tuning though less intense. Dean is still struggling with stay but he is improving, we love progress. His recall is not to be beat though. He even broke away from playing with his bestie Augie this week to run to mom when I called. Sammie well she had fun showing up literally every dog who even already passed the canine good citizen test and visited her class this week with her stay, lol. Little show off. Her loose leash walking is improving but still her weak spot too, again we love progress though. (this was last weeks teaser I didn’t see that WordPress didn’t post it as scheduled. sorry! So I will use it this week since Dean didnt end up having class anyways cause of Turkey day)

On to this weeks teaser…

“See, that’s the tragedy of the human condition. No one wants to be corrupted by power when they set out to get it. They have good, even noble reasons for doing whatever it is they do. They don’t want to misuse it, they don’t want to abuse it, and they don’t want to become vicious monsters. Good people, decent people, set out to take the high road, to pick up power without letting it change them or push them away from their ideals.
But it keeps happening anyway.
History is full of it. As a rule, people aren’t good at handling power. And the second you start to think you’re better at controlling your power than anyone else, you’ve already taken the first step.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone! First week of advanced puppy classes went really well! Dean struggled with stay but he did aces at everything else on the list that day. He is a champ at stopping when I stop, loose leash walking, weaving, greeting properly etc. stay is his weak spot but we have been working on it and will keep working on it. Sammie well she aced everything this week and fell in love with her one classmate a Great Dane named Rocket. The feeling is mutual we all found it adorable how smitten they are with each other. I even heard her bark for the first time (she is more of a alerting with her whole body kinda girl) because she was sure a cardboard cut out of a cat was coming for Rocket when he wasn’t looking.

On to this weeks teaser…

“No one just starts giggling and wearing black and signs up to become a villainous monster. How the hell do you think it happens? It happens to people. Just people. They make questionable choices, for what might be very good reasons. They make choice after choice, and none of them is slaughtering roomfuls of saints, or murdering hundreds of baby seals, or rubber-room irrational. But it adds up. And then one day they look around and realized that they’re so far over the line that they can’t remember where it was.”
