Autumn Romance

"I see that the puppy seems to like you, Kelly. That is a good sign of a good match." Grace spoke then lead them off to her RV outside.

"What about the tab?" Anna whispered.
"I pay at the end of the week, dear." Bill spoke and kissed her gently.

"Behave yourself, Bill." she giggled.

"You don't like blood? " Grace asked as she sat down at the desk inside. She turned on the computer.
"You could think about it a few more years still. College courses will need to come first.

Now the name of your puppy will be once more?"

"Good. Same vet as your father, same address, do you have a phone number?" she asked.

"She doesn't have her phone yet. I'll have Bill give you a call when she gets it." Anna spoke softly with a smile.

"That's fine. Now I need your name and one of your parents name." Grace spoke with a wink.

"This is where you sign, Kelly. Which parent will be the co signer?"

Anna picked up the pen and signed in the appropiate spot.

"Now which classes do you want to be in? How to train your companion dog is one that you must do if you want Max to be a companion dog. But there are others like show dog, jumping dogs classes, gaurd dog class, obediaence training....." Grace asked as she copied the paper into the computer and printed out two copies.

Grace typed that into the computer.
"I have those classes starting in a month. I will send you the exact times about a week before. How does that sound?" she asked.

"Wonderful. Now you will get a special vest for you and your puppy to wear. " Grace spoke as she took out a vest for each of them. Then began to get various books on the care of the puppy like grooming, teaching good habit and breaking bones, excercise is important playtime activity and healthy food styles. These she put in the bottom of a box and added to it. She then out a special puppy drinking bowl and 2 water bottles. A belt with 2 zippered pouches were amoung the other things added to the box. A second box was brought out and two sets of food bowls were placed on top with a food mat.

"All right time to try on the vests and choose a bed." Grace told Kelly.

"There is a spare in the box for you and a larger one for Max. Here is your waist belt to keep on. You have a pocket for snacks and one for your things. A bottle of water for you and a special one for Max. Spare ones in the box. Many toys in the small box here. And there is a food and snack box on the floor.

Perhaps your father would like to bring your car around to load up. I'll give you your tempory paper and your permant one will come in a package. Here is a tag for you to keep with you at all times.
Any questions?" Grace asked.

Bill left to get the car. He didn't realize all that he bought but was glad that he did get the high price package.

Grace chuckled and spoke.
"You are right, Kelly. I'll give you a quick demonstration of how to do it and you and your parents can decide if they want to buy one. It does get very tedious doing the brushing. Brushing does loosen the fur so I'd brush then use the pet blower then brush one last time.

I do have a class on dog grooming which would include the fur blower. I did his fur last night so if you want to wait for a week or so, you can see the fur being remover."

(( you are right! A reverse vaccum is what it is:
)

"Max certianly likes you. I will set up an appointment and then you can take Max home. " Grace spoke as Bill came in.

"Is it ok for Kelly to have the class, Anna?' Grace asked.

"Yes, she may. The money is no problem. " Anna spoke.

"Wonderful. How about Monday at 9?" Grace asked.

"It would be fine with me. Kelly?" Anna asked.
