I can see the point, especially for folks who do that. I've done it before
and then either lost or just never listened again. My heart has the
memories. Still, if it is something one always does, that's just fine. And
besides all that, it is simply not my business.

Hi Kerri.
A friend of mine did make a recording of at least one of her dog meetings.
Like you said, she just pushed record when the trainer knocked on the door,
or around then, so then it wasn't a distraction.  So I guess it works well
for some people, though not for me.

Hi Tracy and List,
I do understand why it would bug you that people would focus more on
videoing and not on the dog and building a relationship. However, that's not
at all my intention; I like to journal about important things to me, not for
everyone else but for me to look back on, and that is why I also mentioned
audio-only recording; and, you are absolutely right, that first meeting is
so very special, that's why I want to capture it. I haven't done that with
the last 3 dogs, but I would like to with this one, and I can hit the record
button, forget about the fact that it's being recorded, and still be very,
very mindful and special with the dog at the same time. For some, it is a
distraction, but for me, it's a way for me to go back and look at how
amazing that moment was and actually hear it happening. I have always
recorded special moments throughout my life, since a very young age, and
it's actually therapeutic for me and comes as second nature to me since it's
been a part of what I do for a ve  ry long time. It may sound like I'm
trying to justify it, but my intent isn't to do that, but just to explain my
position on it and assure you that I will still have that very special
moment and it won't take away from it at all. But I can see where different
things work for different people.
Getting more excited as the time goes by.
