Cub scouts and chew toys

Well... tonight was a pretty fun evening at cub scouts! We had a local police K-9 officer come in with his dog to talk about K-9 police work and give a demonstration of some of the things the dog can do. The officer had some actual marijuana with him to hide in the classroom for the dog to find, and it was so neat to watch. The boys laughed and said, "WOW, you are a police officer bringing drugs TO school! That's kinda backwards!" But the "bad guy" demonstration was the part they liked best. My husband, Jason, got to be the dog's "chew toy". He was the bad guy, and got attacked by the dog (he had a special arm sleeve that is super thick so the dog's teeth don't actually "bite" him). The boys' eyes were wide as saucers as the dog attacked him! But Jason and this dog are well acquainted friends, and he has been the "chew toy" many times for training and demonstrations like this one! It was pretty cool!

Other than that, just a normal kind of day. *shrug* I need to finish working on my life group discussion for tomorrow night. Later!
