Celebrating Skyla Skyla came to us as a puppy 12 years ago - rescued by the BC SPCA from a puppy mill in Prince George... sadly during that rescue only a few puppies and dogs were in a state that the SPCA could save, a lot were put down. Skyla was emancipated, had a heart murmur, worms, and a sensitive-afraid-needy nature... she survived by eating other dogs' poops and any dropped snacks she could find. She was just 4 months old and barely filled in a tile on our kitchen floor.  She was my baby, my fur-child. ...Always at my feet in the office. ...When she was young I was still running the radio show and you could hear her chewing her squeaky toy and doing her best to keep my attention. Talk about me learning multitasking skills, lol.  She joined us camping, hiking, mountain biking on the old railway beds, snowshoeing in the winter, pacing by the lake edge while we played in the water... she never did like getting wet or dirty or messy and always avoided puddles when we walked...

-- Quote of the Day --  “… Focus and go within to identify that voice within – and access that rather than the ego – that crazy screeching voice. …Accepting what happened in our lives, rather than resisting what happened – and our attitude will change and the past will no longer have the weight it used to have. …Identification of the self-sabotaging behaviors; enables you to set a powerful intention.   …We have to be conscious of what we are thinking because our thoughts will manifest in our lives. …Helping and healing are the final steps – once we’ve healed and learned the skills, we need to help others by sharing our message. …What matters most is what you think of yourself; not what the ads or commercials tell us. Materialism does not bring us joy .” ~ Mal Duane  Find the full interview with Mal Duane via: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/consciousdiscussions/2012/01/24/life-coach--educating-others -- Referral Corner -- It h...
