You know Zippy, you bring up a great idea -- things to do together. My niece, who is in art school, has decided she really wants to be a canine cop (good use of the education! oh well.) So when I was teasing her and asked if she would want to go to my exercise class with me she got all excited. (Included me paying for it.) Wants to get in shape for the state trooper physical!

I am going to mention to her about volunteering at a shelter. Would probably be good on her application if she really pursues the canine cop route.
