SAME LITTLE KITTY. WE ARE THE CAT. THE CAT IS US.
The little paw outstretched desperately searching for a hero, a miracle even, as she slides helplessly off the bed into an abyss of dust balls and dog fur, is a poetic metaphor for how we navigate through life like two ships passing in the...
UMMM SORRY. WHERE WERE WE?
Right. Poor kitty. Anyhoo, you know who's not like the cat in this bizarre metaphor of ours? One of our lead trainers here at Wonder Dog University - Christine Baker. In this metaphor, Christine's not the cat. She's not even the beautiful-eyed dog (clearly asleep on the job). She's the bed. Hear us out. She's the safe, comfy place our puppy class students can rest their adorable heads, knowing they have a patient, guide with them as their needs grow and change. Their humans can have a highly knowledgeable puppy pro they can turn to for reliable resources as they tackle tons of ever-changing puppy pickles. So with how much you, dear reader, mean to us, and with how much C.B. (our pet nickname for her) means to us, we thought we'd help you get to know her a little better! So without further adieu welcome let us welcome you to your first Meet Cute (an amusing or charming first encounter between two characters)... |
