>>Congratulations Diane! You deserved the honor...so now what ? Do you and Raven get a lifetime supply of treats and an expense paid trip to Tahiti? Best wishes, Bren<< I wish! {{chuckle}} the prize was a $25 dollar gift certificate to Amazon. I am sure I will use it to purchase some doggy stuff to donate to the fire victims...or a non profit... I will have to see what they have on Amazon. What was of more value is that others read learned about puppy raising and the value of assistance dogs. That is the biggest prize of all... Thanks it was fun!
