Ellie and Coda
These are my 2 girls, Ellie and Coda. They are sisters, 2 years apart, but they have very different personalities. Ellie is very serious and intense and I call Coda my clown dog. She always makes me laugh. We have been learning agility for about 3 years now which is keeping me very active and I've made a lot of new friends. The dog agility community is awesome. Lots of great people.
The dogs favorite pastime would be playing with a tennis ball or frisbee. Ellie hurt herself at a trial in late September so she has been on leash walking only since then. We have physical therapy exercises we do twice a day to strengthen her right side. We also do 2 - 30 minute walks per day which is not only helping her and Coda, but me as well. Hopefully in the next 4 weeks, she'll get to go back to being a normal dog, chasing her favorite tennis ball.

About OWH!
Operation Write Home began in 2007 with just a few cards made by friends on a message board; what began as an outlet for a hobby has become a much larger mission to help heroes keep in touch with home - and the effort has been joined by thousands of cardmakers!
OWH receives handmade cards donated by crafters across America (and beyond!). Cardmakers range in age, location, and level of skill; cards are provided by individuals and groups, schools and scouts, companies and churches. All have one primary thing in common: a desire to serve those who defend our nation!
Cards are mailed to one of our volunteer shippers in quanities both small and large. The shippers process, sort, repair, and document each donation, and then pack and ship boxes of over 300 cards each to our contacts. Our heroes request cards (families may also request on their behalf; we serve all branches in all deployed locations.
