I was in the news!

I was featured in the news with my handler, Peggy.  Read the article about me and other canine companions at Lake County News' website.

All natural weed killers

Today I met the strangest looking dogs. But they didn't have a tail like me or run like me. And sometimes they would rear up on their hind legs and hit each other in the head. What are they doing?  My handler, Peggy, tells me that their names are Freda and Flake. Freda has the white spots on her, and Flake is all brown and black. 

 


They seemed a little unsure of me, but I was being very good. I tried to show them that I wouldn't hurt them.  Flake and Freda come to visit about once a week, and they get to spend their days in Becoming Independent's garden.  I'm told that these little girls are all-natural, organic "weed killers."  I think they are too cute to be weed killers, but they sure do like to eat the grass. Once all the weeds are gone, BI is going to plant a pumpkin patch for the fall. Sounds like fun!
