Well I’ve made a decision today. Usually my main agility venue focus is AKC. And the only reason that is, is because there are more AKC trials around me than any other venue. However, the other venues are getting more popular and there are more of them.
Plus, a few people now [...]

After we got back from dog training yesterday doing obedience lessons… and after Tatum’s puppy class, the dogs all got some yummy Venison bones to chew on. Here is Lucy chewing, she is very happy!
Yesterday was a great training day. I am having major PMS and feeling like crap, but I was able [...]

Okay here are the last couple for the day. I’m using this Wordpress Flickr plugin that I like so far, but I think Flickr might be a bit limited. I will have to play with it for a while. Anyone use Flickr and can give me some tips?
Clicking on these images it will take [...]

Okay and here we are. The new camera. Here is a picture of Chase. I didn’t get his whole nose, but I think it gives a good idea of the camera.
So far, so good. I’m glad I can just point and shoot if I want to. Because you know, I am [...]

Well here it is, after long last. Chase’s open Standard title run. Look at that boy go. When we work together, it feels so good. When he’s paying attention and we run like this video, it’s just so much fun! I love running this boy. He is.. well, I can’t say he is more [...]

I am attempting to pull a video off a minidisc and load it on youtube… it’s Chase’s open FAST run. He is such a great border collie. Beautiful. He got 79 out of 80 points… we didn’t get just one jump. However, the buzzer went of just before he got that last jump [...]

Do you play Chase the Dog at your house? Most dogs love this game… where they get to run and you chase them all over the place.
As a general rule I don’t play Chase the Puppy. The only dog I’ve played this game with is Angel. Mostly because she gets so very excited. Her [...]

I do know that border collies are not collies, LOL who would know better? It’s amazing how many people get the names mixed up. And I think, in England, a border collie is called a collie, because when I search around I see a ton of border collies referred to as collies.
Anyway that’s neither [...]

We have four smooth collies in our house and one border collie. And man, are they different. Chase, the border collie, has taught me so much about drive shaping and high drive dogs. And I hope to use that to help train Tatum as we move through the training process.
I went to obedience training [...]

There is absolutely no place for anger in dog training. I say this because lately I haven’t been feeling well. Some days I’m good, like today. And some I’m not so good, like yesterday. And when I don’t feel very well my patience gets short and I get angry much easier.
Getting angry at [...]
