Launching the Blog

This is my first post in my first blog. Very exciting for a 64 year old who has recently finished a 30 year career in real estate apprasial and management and has now launched an entrely new venture in dog massage. Why dog massage you might ask. Well, I love dogs, live on a small "farm" of sorts surrounded  by a number of species including horses, cats, chickens, ducks and of course, dogs. Dogs have changed my life since my wife convinced me 25 years ago that we should get a dog. Our daughter was 10 at the time and that single act has probably had more impact on myself and our family than any other. It led to so many wonderful and surprising adventures and it opened my heart and my understanding in a way I could not have imagined at that time. So for this next phase of my life and perhaps the rest of my life, I would like to make dogs even more of a focal point in my life and also provide a hopefully useful and healing service to both the dogs and their owners.
