I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on some of the things we’ve been working on here at the Puppy In Training blog. First off I submitted one of my articles from this week to a blog carnival. Hopefully we’ll get some new visitors here in the next couple days.
Second, I finally got off my butt and sent some of Stetson’s pictures over to our Orange County Guide Dogs of America web page.
Canine Blog Carnival
Have you ever heard of a Blog Carnival? I had no idea until just recently what a blog carnival actually was. A blog carnival is a collection of posts from different blogs written about a common theme. For instance, in the Canine Blog Carnival we obviously write about dogs.
If you’re interested in finding a blog carnival on a specific topic try visiting the Blog Carnival website that’s where I found the Canine Blog Carnival.
Blog Carnivals are a great way to attract new readers and also find other great blogs about a specific theme. Our post appeared today on t Pamibe’s blog under Canine Carnival 23. Thank you Pam for including our article on Stetson’s Puppy Progress Report in your blog carnival. I encourage you to visit the carnival and check out some of the other great blog articles included on Pam’s blog.
Orange County Guide Dogs Of America Website
Our local group maintains a website for our Guide Dog Puppy Raisers. Fortunately for me they like to maintain an albums page where I get the chance to post pictures of my puppy in training Stetson. Until just recently I’ve slacked badly in getting them pictures. If you go to the Puppy Parade page you’ll see the picture of me and Stetson at our first OCGDA meeting. That was the only picture of us on the website until a couple weeks ago. Now You can see several picture of my boy Stetson at Stetson’s Stepping Stones. Thanks Laurel for getting those pages updated!
That’s the latest updates on a few things I’ve been working on. Remember check out today’s Canine Bog Carnival when you get the chance…you might just find another great blog you’d like to subscribe to.

Stetson is too cute. Found my way over here through the blog carnival. I’ll definitely be keeping tabs on your adventures training him. We initially thought about doing the same but decided we wanted our own dog first before we started training a guide dog. You’ve definitely provided a lot of food for thought.
all the best!
@Natalie, I have two dogs one that we rescued from the shelter and Stetson the guide dog in training. When he’s done with his training I’m thinking about getting another dog (not a guide).
By the way, in our program if your dog does not make it as a guide the puppy raiser has the first option to adopt. If Stetson doesn’t make it we’ll take him back and probably get him certified as a therapy dog.
