Chase the Dork

17 November, 2007 (21:40) | Chase, Tatum | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

I took Chase out today for some obedience training with some other friends. Did I mention that I had him out Thursday night to class and he was a mess? A complete mess. No attention, no focus, no brain, all over the place. Even having treats out.
Today was about the same. He [...]

Removing Google

16 November, 2007 (21:18) | Uncategorized | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

I always liked google. Really.. liked their search engine, liked their AdSense, liked their whole idea and they were just fun.
Well, I no longer like Google. I’m posting this to get the word out, and to express my frustration. Google had decided to change their Page Rank, and it seems all blogs that sell [...]

Going back to class

14 November, 2007 (11:26) | Chase, Tatum | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

Well, I’m bored! I must do dog training! Thursday evening Chase and I are going back to obedience classes. I really miss them. Reminds me, I have to get him a dumbbell and really work it with him. Danigit I hope I didn’t delete the email with the dumbbell info, I [...]

Chase is Picking Up

12 November, 2007 (09:05) | Chase, Tatum | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

The funny thing about our pack is how the dogs all get into a pattern and it’s hard to break it. For some reason everyone piles on Lucy when they play, and they ignore the other dogs. It might be because she is pack marm and Angel started it. When it was just [...]

Down to Six

It is quite amazing, I will admit, the difference one dog body makes. Not only body, of course… but spirit and energy and life. Bianca just went off to her new home in Idaho. I really love Bianca. She is so sweet and mellow and wonderful. She will get more attention there, though, [...]

Dog Tags

Well, these are not really tags you put on your dog’s collar, per se, but they are dog tags like people wear in the military. I got one and I thought I’d put Chase’s name on it… cool huh? For flyball, why not!
These dog tags are really nice, too. Good quality, durable, the etching [...]

Tatum Tales

9 November, 2007 (08:06) | Tatum | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

I just wrote this on a message board and thought I would also post it here because it’s what I’ve had in mind about Tatum lately!
Tatum is from a hoarder in Houston so she is very dog savy. But her contact with humans, in the past, has been minimal at best, and was not positive [...]

Tatum could be a working dog

7 November, 2007 (17:43) | Tatum | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

This girl is a goer. I swear she could herd sheep in the mountains all freakin’ day long. After she built up some endurance, of course. She’ll love to go camping when we go, and when she is not stressed about it. For a while when we go out she’ll have some stress, but [...]

Chase on the A Frame

We got this super nice photo of Chase flying over the A-Frame in his Novice FAST class in Pahrump, Nevada last month. I’m going to have it printed and mailed to me, too. I think he looks great.
Boy he has fun in agility. Second only to Flyball! He does love agility, [...]

Eye Contact

5 November, 2007 (15:45) | Tatum | By: User ImageCynthia [My Barks!]

Well, I just worked with Tatum and then we sat for a while… she kept thinking there was more to come, so she looked right at me. And she gave me at least five full seconds of eye contact.
Then after a minute or two, she did it again.
This is huge progress! I love it [...]
