Since my post about Cesar Milan a while ago, and the comments I received on it, I wanted to post again. Not about Cesar… really. But about one of the comments (maybe more than one of them).
Someone said that Cesar is more a dog psychologist than a dog trainer. I have said, for as [...]

OOoo I so want to go! I wish Levi was better at herding but maybe I’ll see if he’s up to getting on some sheep.
Wags 4 Wishes in Arizona (near Phoenix) in January. 18, 19 and 20th. Long drive, 700 miles, but not much different than camp. And my husband might want to [...]

I’m going to send in Tatum’s pictures for ILP. I believe her official registered name is going to be Tatum Tot Spice. To stay in line with the Spice theme started with Angel and continued with Chase.
I’m bad at names.. I’ve been considering changing her name to Pixie, which I really like… but I [...]

Well, us humans are beat. The dogs are still doing well. Cor and Chase are maniacs and doing well, and want to keep swimming like nutters. Levi lays on the sand and watches. Kiwi kinda wanders about and also lays in the sand. Zoe and Twist are not on the beach much, [...]

Here is a short video of Levi herding at dog camp. I don’t know when YouTube will have it available for viewing, but I’m posting it now so when it comes up you can see it.

Well, here we are at dog camp. It takes too much time to upload a video to YouTube. I’m trying to do a short one, but it’s slow going. So here is a picture of Chase in the lake. We’ll see how long this takes to upload.
Anyway, camp is a blast. I’m too tired. [...]
Kip had no titles, not even a CGC, and often I wish I would have done so much more with him. He would have had fun doing agility, or obedience, or even flyball.
My four current dogs have titles, and Levi has a ton of titles. I hope the number of titles Chase has will grow [...]
Kip didn’t get any titles. Kip didn’t get to do agility or flyball or herding or obedience… Kip was my companion through the most difficult part of my life. Though my codependency, though my addiction to men, through my moves from house to house, Kip was always by my side. My best friend, [...]
Maybe I should start a new series of posts about different dog breeds. I love learning about different breeds. My favorite are the herding breeds, but there is one group of dogs that has so many varieties it’s amazing. That’s the terrier group. I have been watching a number of different terriers in [...]
