Happy Valentine's Day!

The girls from work and I went out for breakfast this morning and it was fantastic!!  I forgot how much I love going out for breakfast.  It's been awhile.  Then the girls came over to meet the puppy, and Kris brought Valentine's presents over.  So it was a bit of chaos in the house!  Everything was good and the girls were being pretty good, so when I gave the girls the rawhide cards that Kris brought over I didn't think anything of it.  Well, let me tell you, it was a TERRIBLE idea!!  :(  Marley wanted to play and thought it was a toy and Luna is very protective of her rawhides, and because of this, we had the first dog fight we have ever had.  I am still so sad about it.  The puppy overreacted a bit, because she was scared, but it totally freaked me out that Luna didn't back down.  I had to physically remove the puppy from the situation.  Makes me so sad, and of course embarrassed that they acted that way.  I'm extremely disappointed too, because Leslie (Sema's daughter) got to meet the dogs for the first time, and I pray she didn't leave her being afraid of them.  I would have been if I didn't know our dogs, so I would completely understand if she never wanted to see them again.  My goal, especially once I'm done with school, is to work really hard on getting the girls to behave appropriately.  They need to know boundaries and understand that they are dogs, not people.  This is all my fault for teaching them otherwise, but they will have to learn how to behave right.  I don't want people to be scared of them, or not want to come over cause they know they will be jumped on and nipped at.  That is NOT OK!  We are gonna work really hard to get them better, and I am more then willing to sign up for more classes so they can learn the right way.
Anyways, I have to go to school to collect data for my experiment in a bit, and then home to celebrate Valentine's day with the hubby.  We might by celebrating by working on obedience with the pups!  HA!  Although, we don't really have anything exciting planned anyways.  Happy Valentine's Day!
