James reaction to his serivce dog email

After what seems like forever that special email from the Service Dog selected and trained for James came June 1st. Yes you read that right, the dog wrote him! This is such a cool idea!

We had been checking out email all day long for days. When it final came I printed it off and read the email to James. He thought the cake sounded gross. But now wants to find a recipe for liver flavor cake.....anyone have one handed please let us know...

He laugh real hard when I read the part about peeing on trees. Was shocked when he heard that his dog liked tennis balls and wanted them for his birthday, We had bought tennis balls last year to put on the bottom of our patio set. They did not fit but James wanted to keep them as a surprise for his dog.

After reading the email to James I showed him the picture of his dog. He said that was not his dog. It was Tricia's ( his sister just got a black lab and looks just like Runner) I explained to him that they are just the same kind of dog, that Tricia's dog was a girl and his is a boy. This of course after awhile brought the question if they would have puppies together. We told him no.

We are hoping James decides to keep the dogs name, Takoda, but I really think he will change it to Runner. This name came out of the air when a reporter with the Sandusky Register was interviewing James and it has stuck.
