My boyfriend Kenny Baker had loved visiting San Francisco twice. "Now I want to show you what I love about this great city," he told me. "The museums, restaurants and shopping are amazing. We can walk, take trolleys, ferries, and the views everywhere are unbelievable. You'll see….."
Our adventure began at the swank Hyatt Regency Embarcadero. The 17-story atrium lobby impressed us, as did the fantastic views of San Francisco Bay and the city skyline from our balcony. The staff was warmly welcoming; especially the concierge who gave us maps and discount coupons.
We'd bought two San Francisco "cityPASSES" prior to arriving, which offer substantial discounts for many attractions, like the California Academy of Science, so we wasted no time getting there. This innovative Golden Gate Park museum features an authentic rain forest (think snakes, birds, butterflies and red frogs), coral reef aquarium (sea horses, mantas/sharks), dinosaurs, a rooftop garden of indigenous flowers/plants; even live penguins and an albino alligator. We explored like happy children until the museum closed.
A short cab ride dropped us off at beautiful Union Square.
Back in 1850, Civil War rallies were held in the grassy public space. By 1903, the dramatic 90-foot tall Goddess of Victory statue graced the square. After the Great Earthquake of 1906, Union Square became Retail Central.
"Let's shop til we drop," suggested Kenny. Turning in circles, I wondered where to begin: Macy's, Sak's, Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales, Kate Spade, Vera Wang, Crate and Barrel, Tiffany's. Add another 500 upscale boutiques and you get the idea. Many hours later, I'm happy to report we both did major damage.
The redwoods
Of course, we needed another week to enjoy San Francisco's charms: the de Young Museum in Golden Gate Park, jazz clubs in The Fillmore District, the Peace Pagoda in Japantown, dim sum in Chinatown, the symphony, opera and ballet at the civic center and fresh Dungeness crab at Fisherman's Wharf. And so much more.
But Ken wanted to show me Muir Woods, "home to the largest and oldest redwoods in the world," he remembered. "Wait until you're hugging one of those 600-year-old trees, you'll find out what majestic means."
Muir Woods National Monument is a remnant of ancient coast redwood forest. William Kent and his wife Elizabeth bought land here in 1905 to protect one of the last uncut stands of redwoods, donating them to the federal government for permanent protection. In 1908, President Theodore Roosevelt used the 1906 Antiquities Act to proclaim the area a national monument, and the area was named in honor of conservationist John Muir.
As Ken and I walked quietly along sun-dappled trails, we were transformed by serenity and sacredness of these beautiful giants. Alongside clear creeks we listened to bubbling water and the call of Pacific wrens. Thriving under the canopy were bright green sword ferns and soft fuzzy mosses. Wildflowers added splashes of pink, white and violet. After the happy craziness of San Francisco, our frazzled nerves relaxed. We became ardent tree huggers, craning our necks to see the tops vaulting skyward.
"Well, you just can't top this experience, " I whispered, taking Ken's hand. "So let's go home now."
"Oh yes I can," he grinned.
I had no choice except to follow my man, to the next surprise.
The Pacific, plus
We hopped into our spiffy black Chrysler convertible and drove to Carmel. From there, we careened along the coast, on 17 Mile Drive. We stopped to photograph tiny half moon beaches, giant waves crashing over boulders, and the world famous Lone Cyprus, standing solo out over the ocean. We passed magnificent estates of the mega rich, watched deer grazing peacefully on famous golf courses like Cypress and Spyglass and played with hermit crabs and baby starfish in mysterious tidal pools.
"Ok, I give in, Ken. San Francisco was amazing, Muir Woods was inspiring, but this Pacific Ocean landscape is over the top fantastic. You can't top this, so let's go home now," I kidded him.
Ken seemed nervous, driving as though there was some agenda more than sightseeing. Suddenly, he veered into a parking spot at Pebble Beach Golf Resort and commanded, "Get out, let's have lunch." What's up with him, I wondered?
On the terrace, we enjoyed a delicious lobster/crab salad, along with 100 other happy tourists. Ken seemed hyper, but I figured he just needed a second glass of wine to relax after so much touring and driving.
"Let's walk down to the 18th green," he suggested. "Maybe we'll have some dessert." Dessert? On a golf course?
I followed him like a lovesick puppy, getting out my camera to photograph one of the world's most famous golf courses. Turning back to face the restaurant, I saw the Maitre'D carrying a silver dome-topped platter and a waitress carrying two glasses of champagne.
To my complete surprise, Ken dropped to one knee.
"I love you, Sharon. I want us to be together, forever and a day. Will you marry me?"
The Maitre 'D lifted the silver dome with a practiced flourish. Glittering in the sun was a stunning diamond ring.
I went kind of insane. I'm not completely sure what happened next. But there was hugging, kissing, champagne sipping, applause from everyone at the terrace restaurant and a cluster of over excited Italian ladies hugging me with Ciao Bella.
Did I dream this unexpected romantic incredible proposal?
I guess not, as I'm looking at a gorgeous ring on my finger and I see Ken's gorgeous blue eyes smiling at me every day.
I'd toured beautiful San Francisco, Muir Woods and the Pacific coast as Ken's girlfriend. Now I'm his beloved fiancée. Am I the luckiest girl in the world or what?
Some things in life you just can't top. Don't even try. But visit San Francisco and see what magic awaits you.

The Nike Tennis Camp at Berkeley is a summer camp with the ultimate combination of athletics and fun. With tennis training boasting a perfect mix of match play, drill work, and strategy sessions there's no better way to spend a summer!
The Nike Tennis Camps at UC Berkeley has something for everyone! For beginners, drills will focus on stroke fundamentals. For advanced and high school players our drills are designed to teach how to construct points using spin, pace and placement. The afternoon tennis instruction session will focus on strategy, tactics and match play. Our experienced staff consists of current and former CAL men's and women's players.
He earned Pac-10 Coach of the Year honors in 1997 and 2001 and has helped the Bears become fixtures in NCAA postseason play since. The ninth coach in the 118-year history of Cal tennis, Wright has compiled a 255-187 (.577) career record during his tenure in Berkeley. In the 2011-12 season, with a 14-12 overall record (4-3/fourth place in the Pac-12 Conference), the Bears made their 13th consecutive postseason appearance in the NCAA tournament and the 18th in 19 years under Wright's guidance. The Bears advanced to the round of 16 for the sixth time under Wright. Senior Nick Andrews and junior Christoffer Konigsfeldt earned ITA All-America honors, while Andrews and sophomore Ben McLachlan earned selection to the All-Pac-12 Second Team. Senior Carlos Cueto garnered All-Pac-12 honorable mention.
Under Wright, 11 Cal players have combined to receive 15 ITA All-America selections. Wright's 2003 squad completed the season ranked fourth nationally, and boasted two ITA All-Americans and three all-conference selections. That team's 21-5 record is considered the school's all-time best record since joining the Pac-10. That year, the Bears finished in second place in conference play, which is California's best-ever showing in one of the toughest conferences in collegiate men's tennis. The 2002 season marked the first time that Cal enjoyed a series sweep of UCLA since 1953 and the first time that the Bears beat Stanford, UCLA and USC in the same season.
Wright's tour highlights include appearances at Wimbledon and the Australian Open. He represented Ireland in Davis Cup from 1988-95 and served as Irish Davis Cup Captain from 1995-2003. Wright also served as the Head Coach for Ireland at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta.
Wright has served as Chairman of the NCAA Tennis Committee as well as on the Executive Board of Directors of the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA).
Wright's community involvement includes serving as vice-president of Youth Tennis Advantage, whose organizational mission is to inspire inner-city kids to achieve their full potential through tennis and academic programs. In 2001, he established the Bear Trax program at Cal, which brings YTA children from Oakland to the Berkeley campus for academic tutoring with Cal students and tennis instruction with the Golden Bear men's and women's teams.
A Berkeley native, Wright was born on Dec. 8, 1963, attended Berkeley High School and earned a B.A. in Social Science from Cal. His wife of 17 years, Fionnuala, is a former Irish national tennis champion and a former member of the Irish national basketball team. The Wrights currently reside in Berkeley with their sons, Thomas and Michael, and daughter, Carly.
Now entering her seventh season in Berkeley, Augustus has already made a return trip to the NCAA final and produced numerous ITA All-Americans. Under her guidance, Jana Juricova and Mari Andersson combined to claim the 2009 NCAA Doubles Championship. Juricova later captured Cal's first ITA National Indoor Championships singles title, and more recently became Cal's second NCAA singles champion. Juricova's impressive run in 2010-11 also made her the first Bear to garner the ITA's National Player of the Year Award, and the Honda Sports Award.
Augustus returned to her alma mater on July 20, 2007, to succeed her college coach, Jan Brogan, who announced her retirement, after 29 years at the helm. A four-time All-American at Cal from 1996-99, Augustus played professionally on the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) tour for several years before turning her efforts to coaching. The Manhattan Beach, Calif. native served as head men's and women's tennis coach at Whittier College from 2004-05 and was an assistant at Michigan in 2005-06, before being elevated to the head position for the 2006-07 season.While overseeing the Wolverine program, Augustus guided the team to a 17-8 overall record, 8-2 in the Big Ten for third place. Michigan placed second at the Big Ten team championships and reached the second round of the NCAA tournament, completing its season with a No. 22 national ranking.
As a player for the Bears, Augustus earned All-Pac-10 honors in each of her four years, including first-team recognition as a sophomore, junior and senior. She teamed with Amy Jensen to capture the NCAA doubles title in both 1998 and 1999 and became the first tandem ever to win back-to-back doubles championships. In addition, Augustus and Francesca La'o were NCAA doubles quarterfinalists in 1996.
Augustus also earned an invitation to play in the NCAA singles tournament each of her four years at Cal, reaching the quarterfinals as a junior in 1998. During her career, she was ranked as high as fourth nationally in singles.
As a senior, Augustus received the Cissy Leary Sportsmanship Award for the ITA Northwest Region, as well as the Gladys Heldman Award for her outstanding combination of athletics and academics. In 1998, she was selected as the Daily Californian's Female Athlete of the Year.
After graduating with her degree in economics and a minor in business administration, Augustus turned her attention to the WTA tour and successfully earned invitations to the main draw of all four Grand Slam events - Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and U.S. Open. She achieved world rankings of No. 82 in doubles and No. 304 in singles, and won 20 professional tournaments.
Augustus currently resides in Emeryville, Calif.
Browne joined the Golden Bears with a year of experience under his belt as an active undergraduate assistant with the team, helping Cal to a 13-11 overall record, and fourth place in the Pac-10 conference with a 4-3 mark. In 2008, the Bears received a bid to the NCAA tournament for the eighth consecutive season, and advanced to the second round.
As a player, Browne posted a 72-59 overall singles record and added 46 doubles victories in four years on the court. He was ranked as high as No. 56 in singles and No. 12 in doubles with partner Conor Niland. As a junior, he was selected to the 2006 All-Pac-10 team and received honorable mention in 2007. Browne served as the team captain during the 2006-07 season and was an active member of the Bear Student-Athlete Advisory Council.
A native of Walnut Creek, Calif., Browne received a degree in sociology in 2008 and currently resides in Berkeley, Calif.
While at BYU, Warren helped guide the men's program to three historic seasons, which included an overall record of 58-22 and a Mountain Region record of 27-0.
The 2010 and 2011 Cougar squads both finished with a BYU record-tying 21 wins, going 21-7 and 21-6, helping propel the team to two consecutive NCAA Championships.
In 2010, Warren helped the Cougars earn their first Conference title since 2003. The Cougars went on to win both the Mountain West Conference regular-season championship and tournament title in 2011.
BYU found itself in the top 25 in 2010 for the first time in over 30 years. And in the 2011-2012 season he coached Georgy Batrakov to the final 16 of the All-American Championships in Tulsa, Okla.
Warren's perfect record against regional opponents (27-0) over three seasons helped him earn the 2011 Mountain Region Assistant Tennis Coach of the Year, making him a candidate for the National Assistant Coach of the Year.
Before his hiring as an assistant coach, Warren played collegiate tennis for BYU during the 04-05 and 05-06 seasons.
Prior to his playing and coaching experience at BYU, Warren was an instructor for BYU tennis camps as well as the summer camp director for Rolling Hills Club in Novato, Calif.
Warren graduated from BYU with a bachelor's degree in communications and a business minor. His wife, Angela, is a former All-American track athlete for BYU. The two of them reside in Marin County.
*All sessions are Directed by Associate Head Men's Coach, Tyler Browne, and Assistant Women's Coach, Zack Warren. They are joined by Head Men's Coach, Peter Wright, and Head Women's Coach, Amanda Augustus, during certain weeks of camp.
Week 1: June 13-17 (Wright, Browne, Warren)
Week 2: June 20-24 (Wright, Browne, Warren)
Week 3: June 27-July 1 (Augustus, Browne, Warren)
Week 4: July 5-8 (Augustus, Browne, Warren) - *4 day session due to 4th of July (Tuesday-Friday)
Week 5: July 11-15 (Augustus, Browne, Warren)
Week 6: July 18-22 (Augustus, Browne, Warren)
Week 7: July 25-29 (Wright, Browne, Warren)
In addition to the All Skills program offered each week, we also offer a tournament training and high school program each session. Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week.
The tournament training program is geared towards tournament level and ranked players looking to improve their tournament results, learn winning strategies, and work on mental toughness.
The high school program is provided for players ages 13-18 currently on their high school team and wanting to move up the ladder or those planning on making the high school team.
In addition, we offer a "10 and Under Tennis" Program, featuring the USTA's successful new teaching format. This is an exciting new way kids 10 and under are learning to play tennis as well as compete. The courts are smaller and balls are low-compression so they are easier to hit, allowing kids to get to the ball and develop optimal swing patterns. It all makes it easy and fun for them to hit, play and score from the start, while developing skills that will last a lifetime. Please note: We will use short courts and full courts during the camp. This program is optional and younger campers may opt to play regular tennis on the full courts.
Full Day campers bring their own lunch each day, or may bring money to purchase lunch. Half Day campers leave before lunch.
Campers will play at The Hellman Tennis Complex on 6 outdoor hard courts. In case of rain campers will move into club area for video analysis.
A detailed camper registration packet containing check in location, health/release forms, emergency contact info, and a list of things to bring will be emailed to all registered campers in the Spring. Our health and release forms do not require a doctor's signature and they will be collected on the first day of camp.
Camp Code: TNXDCA
Camp is open to any and all entrants and only restricted only by age and number of campers.
Both my boys LOVE this camp. It is their favorite and they have been going for the past 3 years. Thank you!!
This is a fabulous camp - the perfect balance of drills and games. My son loves this camp and looks forward to waking up and going. The camp seems to attract like-minded kids - enthusiastic and good-natured - at various skill level. He adores the coaches and would attend all 6 weeks if our schedule allowed. Not sure if all Nike Tennis camps are the same, but I have a feeling that this one is particularly special.
The Cal tennis staff, in particular Tyler Browne, is enthusiastic, organized, kind, and provides a fun atmosphere for kids to learn & enjoy the sport of tennis. This has been my kid's favorite camp for years!
When we arrived on Monday morning, we were greeted by a very friendly group of people who seemed excited to see my son. Needless to say, he was a bit nervous about being in a new situation with kids he had never met before. The staff gave him a really cool t-shirt and then proceeded to get all of the kids together for instruction. The staff introduced themselves and went through the rules. Both of us are school teachers and it was great to see the organization from the get go. After the initial greetings and rules, they immediately got to work on warm-up and drill, a standard procedure for the following days.
I am so glad we chose to send our son to your school for camp. He was so glad to come back and tell his coach about his wonderful experiences there. He not only had a great time, but he felt as though he made some new friends and learned a lot from your coaches. He is already talking about next year's tennis camp and has decided he might want to try the full day as well.
Thank you for such an invaluable experience!
Our son loves this camp and the coaches! He can't wait to attend next year!
Coach Wright and Browne were exceptional with the children. They made it fun and were incredibly enthusiastic. My kids wanted to repeat the experience next summer!
Big thanks to Coach Peter Wright and his staff - my son had a great time. First rate all the way.
A well run, high activity level, fun tennis camp that successfully improved my son's skills. He loved the two weeks there, and he will do it again next summer.
I had an amazing time! This is definitely my favorite camp.
Great camp! Thanks so much!
I went to the UC Berkeley Nike tennis camp and Coach Tyler and Coach Cole did a really good job! They made it fun and I am definitely going to come back next year!
My son LOVED this camp. I think its a wonderful program that allows him to be with fellow tennis enthusiasts. I could not believe he played for 7 hours a day and still wanted to play more.
Niko really enjoyed the camp, He actually wanted to do another week, but everything was already filled. We are definitely going to sign up for next year summer camp. The program is top notched, keep up the enthusiasms and fun factors!
2017 Dates and Prices Coming Soon! Join our email list to be notified when the program is available.

A woman more entrancing than the greatest laser show at a European Night Club and a woman who could make the darkest day brighter than the sun. Women who try to imitate this woman pitifully fail - mostly because its like trying to imitate the most beautiful celestial body in the universe with the personality of Princess Charming.
Man, I tried to imitate Bridget today and I couldn't...

One of the nicest people you will ever meet! Loved by all, unless envied because of their perfection. A Bridget is overwhelmed by friends, for they are too cool. But usually a Bridget's best friend is a Nicole, becuase of obvious reasons. A Bridget is fun, crazy, smart, pretty, and loves animals! A Bridget is the the ultimate cool!
That girl just helped an old lady, what a Bridget!
Damn, look at that grade, you're so a Bridget!

Very very very sweet girl. Has nice sense of clothing and can strut her hot stuff around town in ANY weather. Has beautiful hair and gorgeous eyes. Boys cannot resist her but shes got her eye on one special guy. There's no doubt that he will fall into her trance the day they meet. But sometimes he falls in love with a different girl and leaves Bridget heartbroken. It happens. But she gets up and writes a song or two about it. She has an incredible voice and there's no doubt that she can act. You'd be lucky to find a girl like her.

After 15 years, a girl in Iceland has legally won the right to her own name. Her mother named her "Blaer," which means "light breeze." Government officials rejected it, because Iceland is really funny about baby names. Parents must adhere to grammar and pronunciation rules: For example, "Carolina" and "Christa" are not allowed because the Icelandic alphabet has no letter "c." According to MSNBC, "Blaer" was rejected because it "was a masculine name that was inappropriate for a girl."
Can you imagine what they'd say about some of our Southern names? Bubba and Bo-Dean and Jimmy Carl would give them running fits. Not to mention Jenny Lou, Lurleen and Frankie Jo.
Take my brother, T-Bob. He's actually named after his father and grandfather, which makes him T-Bob III. He looks, sounds and acts exactly how you'd imagine a man named T-Bob would look, sound and act. He was born to be T-Bob.
My sister, Moonbeam, was christened Katherine Gail, but she was Moonbeam before she could walk. She still is, and it still fits. She moves peacefully through life, floating in a parallel universe and eating roots and berries that were harvested humanely.
Names are so personal; why would a government committee prohibit any moniker, as long as it's not $%!@&?!, or even worse, Yo Mama &$%^@#?!
I read a book about unusual names once, and quite a few stayed with me. These were actual names written on actual birth certificates: War Baby, Saturday Night Coffee, Lucy Never Seen Joe, Navy Dawn, River Deep, Drywall, Frog Pants and Sweet Sugar Plum.
What's really interesting is the names we don't see anymore. When did you last meet a young woman named Alice? Or Evelyn? Emma, Hannah and Sophie are pretty popular retro names, but what about Sadie, Martha or Marian? I had a great-aunt named Bell. No "e," just Bell. The late comedian Jerry Clower's wife was named Homerline, which today would be cause for a lawsuit.
I used to think if I had a son, I'd name him River. A girl would be Allison, after the Elvis Costello song. Turns out all I ever had were dogs, and the best name I ever picked was Lily. She was so obedient she never wore a leash, and so beautiful—pale cream with amber eyes--people stopped and stared at her on the street.
I've already got a name for my next dog: Folly. I just think that's the greatest name ever. It would probably be best for a female though. A male named Folly might be bullied.
Back to human names: My mother did not have a name picked out for me. Shortly before my birth she saw some old Doris Day movie with a character named Julie. It didn't really register at the time, she said.
The day I was born she got on a stepladder and finished painting the kitchen, ate a ham sandwich and called a cab. My father rushed to the hospital shortly after my shrieking arrival. "Have you decided on a name?" a nurse asked.
"Julie," my mother—who briskly delivered me in 42 minutes with no drugs—suddenly announced. My dad blinked: As an only son with three sisters, he'd been hoping for something else.
"But what about Betty, Glenda and Adeana?" he asked.
"They can have their own daughters," my mother said firmly. "This one is Julie." And that was that.
I like my name. And I'm so grateful she didn't go to a movie starring Zasu Pitts.

With the collapse of peace talks on Friday between President Bashar Assad's regime and the opposition, the prospect of more wounded Syrians seeking treatment and refuge in Israel will continue to rise.UN special representative Lakhdar Brahimi delivered a harsh verdict for Syrian civilians confronted with spectacular levels of violence: "We've had just eight days of negotiations in Geneva.... I'm sorry to report there was no progress."

Tuesday, October 8, 2013
The Charleston Animal Society and the Charleston County Park and Recreation Commission (CCPRC) introduced a new series of obedience training programs for dogs. All ages, temperaments and sizes are welcome.
Training sessions for two different age groups are led by C.C. Casale, behavior and training manager at Charleston Animal Society and owner of SouthPaw Pet Care. For details and a schedule, please visit: ww2.charlestonanimalsociety.org/we-offer-training-classes-at-a-charleston-county-park-near-you/
Moultrie News: Can any dog really be trained – even the most (currently) disobedient ones?
C.C. Casale: Absolutely! Unless the dog has a cognitive disability, which might inhibit his learning or ability to retain information, then every dog – and even cats – can be trained. Yes, even cats. In relation to "disobedient" pets, it is important to consider a few factors:
• How long has the inappropriate behavior been "practiced."
• Is your dog being reinforced (rewarded) for the inappropriate behavior?
• Is the behavior preventable before it starts?
Many people are pleasantly surprised at how much fun training classes can be. We aren't trying to turn pet dogs into "Best in Show" material. The goals are to equip people and their pets with easy-to-use skills for real-life situations and help them feel more prepared to problem solve should future training needs arise.
MN: Could you break down those factors a bit for us? For example, how do owners mistakenly reward their dogs for bad behavior?
CC: Sure. Let's take a very common behavior issue like jumping when greeted by people. Dogs live in the present, and all of their behaviors are goal-oriented. From a dog's perspective, if they jump it is to receive attention. Chances are that the dog who jumps now was allowed to jump up when they were a small puppy when they did this in an effort to get closer to people's hands and faces for attention.
Now that this pup is a full-grown pooch, the dog sees no reason to stop this behavior since it still gets him or her attention. Because the jumping has been "practiced" for quite some time, it will be more difficult to stop the behavior, though not impossible. It will call for patience and consistent communication of the appropriate behavior you want the dog to exhibit. Though it may seem to us to be negative attention when we tell him, "no," "off!" or push him away, we have to remember that these human actions are likely perceived by the dog to be similar to dog-play and barking or, at the very least, any negative attention is still attention and fulfilling his goal.
In other words, he is being reinforced for jumping. Trainers who do not use force to teach pets can show you easy techniques, which will reward having "four on the floor" for polite greetings and removing all reinforcement for jumping.
MN: Is there an ideal age for training a dog?
CC: Well, this is an interesting question. The basic answer is that it is ideal to train a pet when they are young and have not yet learned any bad habits. No matter a pet's age, however, it takes more effort to change a behavior than to train the desired behavior from the start.
The longer an animal has practiced a behavior, whether desired or not, the more ingrain that behavior becomes in the animal's repertoire. Another factor to successful training, which I stress with clients, is that every single interaction with your pet is in fact "training."
MN: What are some of the most essential training cues every dog should know and react appropriately to?
CC: Before attempting to teach your dog basic skills such as "sit" and "down," make sure he is skilled at paying attention to you. How many times do you have to say your dog's name before he decides to give you the time of day? Without his undivided attention during training, progress will be slow and frustration will seep into training sessions for both you and your dog.
Good trainers can give you exercises to help focus your dog's attention on you. Building this connection between you and your furry friend will be handy on a daily basis and will go far in keeping your pet out of harm's way.
Further to that, it is essential to teach your dog a solid recall, or "come," as well as "leave it" to prevent dangerous items from being picked up off the ground or licked. I am also a big fan of "wait."
I use it every time I take my pets somewhere in the car before I open the back of my SUV to let them out. They want to jump right out, but I use the "wait" cue and they stand at the edge until I have secured them on their leashes. Once I give them the "let's go" cue, they know it's safe to jump out.
MN: Can a dog's training be more important than just showing your friends that your dog can roll over on command?
CC: Oh my goodness, yes! Today, one of the main reasons for pet surrender to shelters is behavior issues. Sadly, most of these "issues" are fairly easily remedied through training or behavior modification. Quality pet behavior education saves lives while encouraging a greater understanding of our four-legged friends. It helps pet owners arrive at effective, long-term solutions that will have a positive impact on their relationship with their pets and creates mutual compassion and respect.
Training can be fun for both animal and owner, so why not get out there and enjoy each other's company? In this modern age, we have the ability to utilize humane methods for training in order to keep animals in their homes and out of shelters.
MN: What are some cool things that the Animal Society offers with this dog training that sets this apart?
CC: All class instructors at Charleston Animal Society are Certified Professional Dog Trainers (CPDT). Certification is not currently necessary to be a dog trainer; however, the Animal Society is a supporter of trainers receiving true certification like the CPDT.
This means trainers have passed rigorous testing, have a large body of experience and attend continuing education classes annually. These trainers are at the top of their game and educated on the most modern, force-free methods.
Another aspect that sets the classes at Charleston Animal Society apart is that they are designed with fun in mind. Our latest addition, "Wag It! Games" is training disguised as games. The exercises were designed for those who wish to enjoy a looser version of dog activities such as agility, rally and the like. You can "win" in Wag It! Games, because the movements in each exercise are not as restricting as in traditional dog sports.
For example, dogs have a chance to walk on either your left or right side during course runs, exercises are not timed and the height of equipment pieces is lower and at less extreme angles. You can check out fun video samples on our website.
We asked the community via surveys what types of classes they needed and where they needed them. We were told classes we hold at the shelter are helpful, but asked that we expand into our supporters' neighborhoods. To me, the most interesting survey feedback was that people who had not previously enrolled in classes believed they could train their own pets only to later deal with communication breakdowns and frustrating behaviors. Our plan is to give our followers the tools for success.

The new 170 Outboard is big on space, storage and handy features. In fact, the only thing small is its price tag. The side storage system and lockable glove box eliminate clutter. The optional Fishing Package adds a casting chair, trolling motor and much more. Or trick

Tuesday, April 1, 2014
As I stood there watching the parade of baseball and softball players march down the first base line to home plate on Saturday during the Moncks Corner Park and Recreation Opening Day ceremony, I felt a strong pull tugging at the pit of my stomach.
No, that wasnt the yearning for hot dogs, nor was it the anticipation of the eight pints of catfish stew Id wolf down later in the day judging the Catfish Stew Cook Off at St. Stephens Catfish Festival.
It was nostalgia.
It happens to me this time every year.
Growing up, Opening Day was my second Christmas because for the next four months Id get to play as much baseball as I wanted.
Nobody loved baseball like I did growing up. I lived for this game and other than being able to throw a baseball harder than anyone else, I wasnt outstanding.
I was a good hitter, but not great.
My speed was deceiving I was slower than I looked.
I just loved to play baseball, and I would play from when the first sliver of sunlight peaked above the horizon to the east until the last wedge winked good-bye as it set to the west.
Maybe wed break for lunch, or maybe we wouldnt. It was the only time I didnt fret over missing a meal.
I was a Boy of Summer.
When I die, heaven for me will be a freshly manicured baseball field on Opening Day.
To quote Warren Beatty in the football film Rudy, There is no greater sight these eyes have beheld.
Only in my case its catching that first glimpse of a baseball field.
A carpet of Kelly green grass stretching to the outfield fence; the wedge of smooth orange dirt curling from first to third; the virgin white foul lines pointing at right angles, directing runners to first and finally guiding them home as they round third.
And my favorite, the pearl of a brand new baseball resting atop the pitchers mound, waiting for me to pick it up and make it sing.
There is no sweeter sight than the white flash of an 0-2 fastball painting the black, no sound as pleasant as the crack of cowhide striking a horse leather catchers mitt, and no song playing like a favorite melody on the ears as when the umpire sings, Strike three!
The ritual of putting on a baseball uniform for the first time coursed a Christmas morning chill up my spine.
My cap-bill straight, waiting to be creased at the precise angle to block out the sun and the logo centered directly above the nose; the pair of baseball cards tucked into the hat band, a Hal Lanier and Jack Hiatt, to keep the crown from collapsing.
Crisp white baseball pants bloused at the calf and measuring four inches of baseball sock visible above the stirrups.
The uniform top tucked in, a belt worn at all times.
The shining black of freshly polished spikes and you didnt dare hit the field wearing scuffed and dirty baseball spikes.
We were taught to respect the uniform and look of a baseball player. We came dressed to play, and we came dressed correctly.
I was told early on in life, you dress like a baseball player, you played like a baseball player.
It is the Gospel of Baseball that I preach daily from the pulpit of the mound in the cathedral of the baseball field; my slice of Heaven on Earth.
