Hey everyone,
Hope you are all doing well. The boys and I are doing well and we are out most weekends training and running our obstacle courses.
Are you looking for the perfect Christmas gift for that special someone or that hard to shop for person? Do you love my song "My All-American Boy" but wish that you could somehow replace Carson's name with the name of your beloved dog? Well now you can.
Visit my website http://www.janetmclaughlinmusic.com/home.html to order your personalized song for that special someone or pet in your life.

 If every dog agility trial I did was as fun and successful as the NADAC trial m'boys and I went to March 22nd, I would have to sell my house, get a RV and go from trial to trial all over the country!! .......Come to think about it, that's not such a bad idea anyway!!! We traveled to Princeton, IN for an In the Zone NADAC trial. I only had
Sunday to run so m'boys and I loaded up our new Dodge Caravan SXT, Sylvia,
(thank you Greg Stephens of Auto Advantage in Hendersonville!) and headed 3
hours north. Our room was wonderful. It was Cooper, my black lab's, first overnight stay
in a hotel and he did great! Carson and Keenan are very used to the
routine. An earlier that usual start time had us up and going arriving and meeting
up with the Brasen's crew. You can see from the Boys' portrait, Virgil Sweeden is a fabulous
photgrapher! Action pic #1 Carson, who Q'd 5 out of 6 runs, 5 out of 6!!!,
takes to the dogwalk. By the end of the day Carson got a title in Jumpers and
Hoopers. Pic 2 shows Keenan listening to my pep talk before a run. Pics 3 &
4 show the Keenan Boy running out of the tunnel and taking the next jump. Man,
is he on!! Once over the dogwalk, a jump and the a dash to the finish! No
slacker himself, Keenan got 2 Qs and a title in Regular Agility. What a great day!! A happy crew, we enjoyed a nice drive back to
Nashville. Thanks to Lisa and In The Zone for a great trial!!!

Hi Y'all, Thanks to you all who have come out to my shows over the last few months. I
especially appreciate the support at my W.O. Smith Community Music School
concert. Dinner afterwards was fun, too, for those able to hit Blackstone with
us. Lots of dog agility shows to go to this spring. Carson and Keenan and I
went down to Marietta, GA couple of weekends ago. This weekend we'll be in
Shelbyville at the K9 Sports event. I'll have little Cooper with us, too. I've been shopping for a new vehicle. Gonna get a van! Greg Stephens in
Hendersonville is helping me get my new ride. His wife, Bobbie, does agility, so
he totally gets the idea of what I need in a "dog mobile". My Mercedes found a
new home and I am very happy for her. My, or her, mechanic, Ben, bought her and
is going to fix her up and surprise his wife with her. They have 2 dogs, so
Hannah, my old car, will continue to bring joy to a woman and her dogs. More soon, I promise! Gotta run, Janet

Hey Yall!! My manger has been asking me to write a year in review for some time now.
So, as we end the first month of this new year, what better time to sit and
visit with you all for a minute. 2008 was a great year for me on sooo many levels. I hope it
was for you, too. The year's first road gig was in Atlanta with EMILY SALIERS of the
INDIGO GIRLS and CAROLINE AIKEN, 3/5s HUMAN and GIRLYMAN. What a fun show and
wonderful evening at EDDIE'S ATTIC, one of my favorite places to play. Thanks to
manager Susan Tucker and friends Tammy Mahew and Rachel Garlin
(co-writer on Next Chance I Get) for making the trip with me. A great way to
start off a year of shows and performances. My new CD, SHINE IN THE MOON finally came out. Thanks to Desa Haase and
Jane Simmons for buying the first 2 copies. Thanks to all of you who
have purchased the CD. Your support is greatly appreciated. You can always get
more at my website Last February saw the beginning of my monthly shows at Chile
Burrito in Brentwood. Those nights have been
delightful as friends come out to listen and to play. We cover the BEATLES',
STING, INDIGO GIRLS, JIMMY BUFFET, originals and.... well you get the idea. The
gig is laid back and good for the whole family. Come on down when you can. We
will be sending out newsletters about each show and special guests. March's SHINE IN THE MOON CD release party at the BLUEBIRD CAFE was indeed
fabulous. I love playing this venue. Your turnout packed the place. The song I wrote about agility, Carson's song, MY ALL-AMERICAN BOY has
taken on a life all its own thanks to the dog agility community all over the
world. Wow, who knew?! So many contacts on that song alone made it cool for me
to re-sing and personalize it for people. How fun that has been! Big thanks to USDAA for playing MY ALL-AMERICAN BOY at their National
Cynsport Event in Arizona this past November. Big thanks to NADAC for your awesome support,especially you, Emily G! NADAC
is having their national show right here in Tennessee just east of Nashville in
2009. One of my goals this year is to run in as many trials as we can. Carson
and Keenan and I want to be there next September!! What better magazine to carry my CD than CLEAN RUN! Thanks to Monica and
everyone at the magazine for taking a chance with me and my music. (cleanrun.com)
Another level on which this past year was good for me was personally.
Maybe most importantly because I felt really back to my normal self the whole
year after my sub-arachnoid hemorrhage at the end of 2005. Recovery really did
take a while and all the quirky, unexpected fallout symptoms have
finally dissipated. As lucky as I have been to have a great team of doctors, I
won't have to see anyone again until the beginning of next year! Yip-eeee! I'd like to think that I have more patience and compassion in life,
especially for anyone being challenged by health issues. I'd like to think I am
more supportive and caring. But what I really wish is that I did not have to go
through such an awful process to get to this point. We all really do need to
take care of one another. This new year, 2009 is already an exciting one. Here in the states we have
a newly inaugurated PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA and the country has a new direction.
No matter your political leanings, it is a good time for us all to come together
and support this fresh beginning. I am sitting here, thinking of all the fun agility trials, performance gigs
and friends I spent time with 2008. I feel very lucky and very grateful. Here is wishing you the best in 2009 from me and mine! Janet

M'boys Carson & Keenan and I are happy to let the heat of summer go for a while as we continue our dog agility classes out at with Nancy at Leaps and Bounds. Sorry to see our dear friend Elizabeth and her great dog, Rio, move to Kentucky. They will be missed in our Tuesday class. We are gearing up for the K9Sports USDAA Music City Classic the last weekend of October here at home. Oh by the way, I will be performing Saturday evening after the last run! I will, of course play the agility song and many other ones as well. If you're coming to the trial, or test, be sure to sign up for our pizza party and join in on the fun and in on the singing! It will all happen right there on the sight at the Williamson County Ag. Center. Speaking of singing, on September 20th I sang at Dog Days in Nashville. I sang my dog agility song, My All-American Boy, naturally and First Day of Summer, about being out with my dogs and my horse. I was joined on stage by producer, Kim Copeland on vocals and the Sisters Grimm, Rebecca and Jordana, on vocals, banjo and violin. We had a blast! Carson even came up on the stage for his agility song. The weather was perfect. Penny Dionne did a fabulous job co-ordinating the music part of the event and we all raised some buck-a-roonis for Nashville Humane. BIG thanks to all of you who came out to listen to me. It means a lot to see lips moving along with me as I sing! On a sad note, some friends of mine have lost their dogs. Recently, my web site designer, Sue and her husband, Dave, lost their beloved puppy dog, Bernie, this past weekend. Also, some very dear friends of mine, Steph and Suzanne lost Wilson P. Beagle, my beloved canine nephew. I know we all understand the profound sense of lost they are going through right now.Please send them some love and support next time you pray. For those of us into horses, this is a wonderful time of the year to get out and ride. My horse, Sam, who is on my CD cover, and I are taking in as much time together as we can. We've enjoyed a lot quality riding over the last few of weeks. This past weekend began Friday night with my going to hear our Nashville Symphony and ended Sunday with my going to see the Tennessee Titans win. Nashville is such a nice place to live. With horse, dog and guitar playing in between, it was a great weekend. To those of you running dog agility, i wish you Q's, but most of all, a fun and safe time with your canine partners!! I'll be getting back to you all soon, Janet Janet McLaughlin janetmclaughlinmusic.com myspace.com/janetmclaughlinmusic cdbaby.com/janetmclaughlin guitarschoolofnashville.com

Oh my gosh, everyone, did the summer just kinda slip away on you, too?! I have been writing a lot of songs lately. My friend Rachel Garlin, co-writer on Next Chance I Get, was down from New York and stayed at my house with me. We finished a new song and got started on several others while she was here. Had a great time together. She has a new CD that just came out. Heading out tonight to meet manager Susan and producer, Kim, to hear another friend of mine that is simply awesome, Diana Jones. For those of you into music, she won the top nod at Kerrville's songwriter competition in 2006. It is time to hit the road and do some agility trials! Yea! my boys Carson and Keenan will be heading down to Huntsville in a few weeks to run in the USDAA test there. More on that later. We have gotten back into our training again now that the temps are a bit kinder for running.

Hey Y'all, Last night I played in East Nashville at The Big Bungalow Bed and Breakfast. Owner Ellen puts together a nice cozy house concert. Friend Denny Sarokin invited me to join in the round when someone had to cancel, so it was a last minute gig. And boy was it fun! We had a great turn out. With Denny playing and singing on my stuff and Bruce Baxter adding accordion, I was one happy girl. Tom Acousti, in from Maine, and the Sisters Grimm, new to town from Indiana, rounded out the round. By the end of the evening we were all joining in with each other. And let me tell you, Sisters Grimm are awesome!! My manager Susan called me yesterday about playing at Dog Days on Saturday, September 20. This is a day to celebrate dogs and help raise some bucks for Nashville Humane. I am very excited to be a part of this. Denny and Sisters Grimm are going to join me on stage. Adding another guitar, a fiddle and a banjo, I'll be playing some of my songs including The Agility Song, My All-American Boy and yes, Carson and his brothers will be there with me, as well as some well-known-fun-foot-stomping-crowd-pleasing songs. Look for the performance schedule to announced soon and plan to come on out with your dogs.

Wow, what a day I just had. Started the morning at Leaps and Bounds for a seminar/workshop with Stuart Mah. He is awesome - an inspiring teacher and clinician. Met new folks from Birmingham who had come up for the occasion. So cool that they are fans of My All-American Boy!! We all went out for Thai food afterwards. I thoroughly enjoyed visiting with everyone and learning more about running my dogs in agility. After an afternoon of guitar, my evening was spent at a friend's house where we meet each Tuesday to learn Spanish. Ten of us are working with a woman from Columbia that we lined up through Metro schools here in Nashville. We are having a great time doing this together. Well, now it is time for a beer (ok, another beer!) before calling it a day. Buenas noches. Janet
