"Ahead of me are nothing but blank pages, just like you are ready for us" - Skye!
I feel and hope my journal will shed light upon us all. I want humans to understand the warmth and ever-unyielding love I have for you, past to present.
My humans and I went on a road trip to Ticonderoga, New York, where I got to shed light on other humans. I love and look forward to the smiles and warmth I get from being around humans in my community.

One day, still a puppy, I met a new human for the first time! I did not know this new human at all. He was dressed in dark clothing, and he smelled funny, too. OMG! He's walking towards me, stay calm. Before I knew it, I was being picked up, Ok, but then he put me down. What is this guy doing? I was nudged to the floor. What is going on?
He pet me behind my ears, scratched my back, pinched my tail...Hey...what is this guy doing? He stood up, this guy is tall, and he was so big, and he did smell funny.
He was moving around, he made me sit, then he made me lie down, then up, then sit again, he couldn't make up his mind. Wait a minute, now he's rolling me over onto my back! All the while, I knew I needed to remain calm!
Now the guy is down on the ground at my level, and he just smiled. He came so close to my nose, I could not help myself, I kissed him. Although I was sooooo anxious meeting this new human, I remained calm!
I went back to my human, he pet me, and then he gave me a look I hadn't seen on him before. I could feel he was sad.
I was placed in the new human's car for a ride. I love to ride in cars!
I watched the new human as I sat in the front seat. The new human kept reaching over to pet me. This helped me with my anxiety, and I felt so calm...I didn't know it at the time, but my path had changed as I journeyed to a new home.
The new human and I arrive at a house I've never seen or been to before.
The new human and I got out of the car. New place with new and weird smells with all kinds of new unfamiliar things around me.
Wait? I could smell and sense something new. One Second new human. What are those new smell?...Who is that?
WOW! OMG! Another dog! I was so beyond happy to meet her, but scared at the same time. Who is this new dog?
I look up and suddenly I'm met by another new human, she knelt down and gave me such a warm hug...Ok, there's those tears again.
Wait, why is she crying...Oh those are those human happy tears. Weird right, happy and crying at the same time, ok, it's a human thing ,but I felt loved and gave her kisses!
We all went into the house, it felt warm, I felt secure, and with my new human family.
Let me tell ya about Layne! A Terrier mix, Layne is smaller than me, but she has a knack of making feel like she is bigger at the same time.
Layne took me under her wing, she's going to teach me everything about being apart of this human family.
We began playing all the time. Sometimes, Layne would get so testy when I took her toys, but I knew, all I had to do, was to stay calm, and Layne would hide the toys and we'd play tug of war all day.
In the beginning, Layne got really upset when I would hug my new humans. My humans taught Layne and I a lot about sharing and they divided their attention to both Layne and I at the same time. Wait, I wanted to help too. So, to help Layne, I gave her love and a lots of kisses.
I felt so warm here in my new home, and BONOUS! I now had a new sister.
I did know at the time I met Layne, she too was on a journey like mine. She too came from a very loving family. Layne told me that she loved and would never forget how to love those humans. Now, we can continue our journeys together.
It was a cool day, I think they call it Thursday or Thanksgiving. OMG! The smells were soooo good! I had all I could do, not to droll.
GREAT VERMONT FLOOD OF 10–11 JULY 2023
I woke up to a loud roar, the noise on the my houses roof made me super anxious, I was scared, and curious. I went to my love seat and watched the rain fall.
My human and I were on a road trip one day, you see we've been on many road trips togethers before, but this one was weird.
We've stopped? Hmmm...Hey...Why is my human getting out of the car, and walking away from me...I jumped into driver's seat from mine to get a better look...Wait were is he going? Why are there stopped cars in front of us?
Ok, my human left the window down for me...
So, I jumped out of the car, to catch up to my human. Hey, who are these other humans on the ground. Wait, these humans are sad. I don't like seeing sad humans, so I ran past my human, so I could help my self to them...oops, I ran right by my human.
My human let me help the sad humans and then we got back into the car after my human knew my help and his was not needed.
MY FIRST HOLIDAYS WITH MY HUMANS AND LAYNE
It was a cool day, I think they call it Thursday or Thanksgiving. OMG! The smells were soooo good! I had all I could do, not to droll.
Then my humans put up a tree, looked like a pine tree but did not smell like one. Also, It glowed blue and white, and had a star atop of it.
One evening I went to sleep and the next day there were so many presents.
Then my humans celebrated something they called News Years. WOW, what fun, happy, and loving emotions my humans shared with Layne and I.
It was spring, and I have been keeping an I on my human, this winter he seemed sad. My human began bringing me all around to new places and I would meet new humans.
I started training my human. Hey human tell me to sit...Ok now stay...very good, lets try down. We'd walk together, I am always listening and watching my humans.
WAIT ONE SECOND, I SMELL SOMETHING?...WAIT A SECOND!..BOO YEAH, A SQUIRREL..CAN'T WAIT TO TELL LAYNE.
What is that rodent doing? Got to keep an eye on it, I can smell the squirrel...I know there's another one near by too. I feel a gentle tug...oh yeah, I'm training...back to work.
Meeting humans came natural to me, and I always greet them with warmth and a kiss, well of course only if they want one.
Every time I would meet new humans. The new humans always seemed to be happier when they left.
My human at times needed me too, and for my human, a simple nudge and a look is all he needs. I could sense this and he was happier for it! I get him to get up and we'd go for a walk.
You see, I can tell when my human is having an emotional day, and one day in March, my human gave me a training vest, and ever sense my human and I have been training.
I began going with my human to work. I love to play, and I began to get more play time with my human as I learned to work with with other humans more often too.

I woke up to a loud roar, the noise on the my houses roof made me super anxious, I was scared, and curious. I went to my love seat and watched the rain fall.
My human said, "Skye ready to go to work?" Oh...you know what, he doesn't have to ask twice, I'm always ready for a road trip. We were on our way to the area of Bethel and Royalton Vermont.
The rain was terrible, and at times the roar coming from the roof of the car made me scared and anxious, but I felt safe with my human for we were a team. In places I had to walk through water with my human.
My human and I heard a request for help...Another human stuck in her house and need our help.
Along with my humans' firefighter friends we went through the woods, I followed behind, and we made it to the location the human was stuck at.
I met with a human in need of my help, I gave the human my attention, the human seemed happier, then we all left.
A job well done, and I was so glad know the human was ok!
