Zephyr has graduated
Zephyr has graduated. He was initially matched with a gentleman from Spain, but that match didn't work out. He went home with a woman from Alabama, and we wish them all the best.

Zephyr has gotten pretty comfortable around the office. He is enjoying these last few days with us, but he doesn't really have any idea that it's coming to an end. We had one last fun day on Saturday. We went to a Kiwanis pancake breakfast, the farmer's market, and a dog event to support the local humane society. Zephyr had a great time but would have liked more oppor- tunities to play with the other dogs. He had a puppy visit him today. She was a little shy, but warmed up to him after awhile. He has really settled down into a nice dog who works hard and plays hard. He's still fairly stubborn, so he isn't always that easy to work with, but he's a good dog nonetheless.
We are in our final weeks with Zephyr. He will be going back to school on May 5.
Zephyr's birthday has passed by during this extended time that I haven't posted anything. We've been busy at work photo- graphing right of way and rolling around in the grass, and at home watching through the door while I took pictures of my flowers. He is one year old now, and will be going back to school in just over a month. At this point, we have taught him most of what we expect to, and we are just working at polishing up behaviors such as ignoring distractions. He spends a lot of his time in the office chewing on his toys. The nylabone in the pictures was new for his birthday.
