Our Story – Engagement, Wedding, Life, and Love

Our visit from a local ‘dog whisperer’

| Filed under The Dogs

.
Years ago, I had the privilege of having Beth Kelly work with some of my dogs that I was having trouble with. And last night Beth’s husband, Walt, came over to help us with our previously mentioned dog problems. I’ve told the story of Beth to many people over the years comparing her to Merlin, David Copperfield, and any number of mystics.

Walt is much the same. After about 35 minutes of speaking with us about the issues we were having and what to expect, we began our journey to the top of the pack. I can’t say enough about how much improvement there was in just a two hour period. It’s going to take a tremendous amount of work on our part, especially over the next 6-8 weeks, which I suspect is the downfall of most people’s training efforts. But if last night was any indication, we are on the right path. If anyone needs an exceptional trainer/behaviorist I unreservedly recommend the Kelly’s.

We’re excited to find a photographer!
I think we’ve found our wedding photographer! We’re just waiting to hear back about some travel pricing. We’ve interviewed some amazing photographers in this process! We’ve just had a hard time balancing price vs. our budget. I think we’ve found the perfect blend and we’re excited to work with her.

On another note, tonight is ‘dog whisperer’ night. I hope to be able to report tomorrow that we have been given the skills to deal with our out-of-control situation. I’ve worked with the spouse of the behaviorist that is coming and it’s like watching David Copperfield work so we have high hopes that, with a lot of work, we can manage this situation. More tomorrow…

UPDATE: It’s Done! We have our wedding photographer. Adrienne Lampe will be shooting both our ceremony in Savannah and our Party with the Newlyweds in Knoxville.

Weird post

| Filed under Eric Mandee The Dogs

For whatever reason the last post didnt make it correctly:

What a week. Wow our dogs have went berzerk. They all want to kill one another after living happily together for a year+. We have a top notch behaviourist coming Wed to help us try to sort this mess out.

It is amazing how much stress this imposes on an already stressed couple. We are hurt, sad, and disappointed with our lack of pack leadership. Very sad

We are getting quotes in from vendors and skyping and calling people trying to get things in order. More later!
