I’m afraid that this will be the last post in the blog for the foreseeable future next month or so or until my writer’s block subsides.
I may return to it at a later date, but it is defunct for now. I will continue to approve comments and moderate them.
If you need to contact me about something use the given e-mail on this blog (retrieverman1@yahoo.com).

Can’t wait until you’re back, always an enjoyable read. Best wishes in the new year.
start back
sorry to hear it dude; I’ll miss your blogs. I hope things work out for you
Wow, I think your moving to Canada to start a kennel and breed back the St. Johns Water Dog is great, but I’ll certainly miss the blog.
Noooo, good dog blogs are so hard to find! Are you really moving to Canada?
Your blog was a daily stop for me – it will be missed. Thanks for the info and insight, and good luck in your endeavors!
Hope everything is ok! I’ll miss your blog, but do what you need to do for yourself.
I’ll be back whenever you get back. Hopefully not too long…
I really hope you’ll check in every now and then. I didn’t always agree with what you wrote, but you challenged my thinking, which I appreciate.
I greatly appreciate your work here, and wish you the best of luck as a new member of the AKC board.
(kidding! I’m just trying to provoke a reaction)
I will certainly miss the regular read. Is there a reason that you would care to share? As to the reason. If its just time consuming, I certainly understand. But if you ever just wish to share your thoughts…. Please post on. Are you no longer on the other blog as well or is it just this one?
As someone above mentioned, good dog blogs are hard to find. Reconsider AND move to Canada. It’s win/win! Srsly… :)
Rats! I had only just found your blog! And it was one of my favorites–lots of stuff I found interesting! So you’re going to Canada? Greatest-of-luck, and I’ll keep checking to see if and when you restart your computer ramblings. It’s much better to ramble OFF the computer, though!
Oh, Scotty…. I want to write “Please don’t go!” But, like the rest of us, you need to do what needs to be done.
Please come back soon.

As soon as my writer’s block subsides, I shall return.
And if I were moving to Canada, I hear they have internet up there, so I’d still be updating.
So sorry to hear this – for purely selfish reasons.
But maintaining a website and blog is very time consuming – at least it is at our house.
Best wishes in all your endeavors!
We will look forward to your return.

As a blogger, I completely understand the sentiments expressed. I’m thankful for all the great information that will remain here for anyone who comes poking around. This may sound odd, and I have loved my golden from day one, but reading your posts about the origin of the breed made me more proud of him than ever back when I stumbled upon this blog and soaked everything up.
I’m so proud of my svelte, little, red dog and you made me happy that he doesn’t conform to the silly standard here in the US.
Thank you, again. I’ll eagerly snap up Bark magazine when it comes to search for your possible article.
There is some good news:
I’ve returned.
However, the day after I returned, I came down with an illness.
Now that I’m feeling better, there will be new posts.
