Too many dogs have been trained in the old-school way for obedience. Well, mine are not! They are trained in the new-school way of fun and play and having a good time. And I think it shows.This is Levi in Open A last Saturday. He did so great! I did have to work to [...]
I am so thrilled with Chase’s first obedience trial! Levi, Chase and I went to an ASCA obedience trial today. I was nervous… I always get more nervous in obedience than in agility. But the boys did great. Levi got his first open Q… his first leg towards his CDX! I was happy, though [...]
ore pictures from the flyball tournament! LOL but this one is not of flyball, but of Tatum and Chase playing. After the tournament was over we got to relax and the dogs got to run and play. I love to let them run and play as I think they need to relax and burn off [...]
I’ve been having my old photo as a slide show on my background on my laptop while I work. And I like to glance over and see all the old pictures.
This one came up and it just makes me laugh. My husband is on the reclining chair and Levi just HAD to have a spot [...]
Okay.. don’t let Levi near a fire! Well, he’s probably safe now, but after we came home and discovered he’d eaten three boxes of microwave popcorn… that’s three whole boxes with about four bags in each, I was thinking he might pop, literally, if we got him close to any heat!
So to the right is [...]
Okay I know I know it’s not like I don’t do regular training with my dogs, but I’m excited because Tatum is going to be going to regular obedience and agility classes soon. Probably with the start of April. Should be fun.
Levi’s obedience is winding down, he’ll still do ASCA which will be fun. And [...]
Well, back from another agility weekend. We had a DOCNA trial and it was a lot of fun. Chase did great, he loves the wide open courses. Levi also did great. Levi Q’d in three out of his four runs. He loves jumping at 16″. When he’s 10 years old, he can run [...]
It’s tough having three old dogs in the house. Of course we love them all, and it’s not like we have to spend lot of time exercising them and doing lots of things with them. However, as they age, we have to spend more on medical care. And make sure they get high quality food, [...]
Levi was limping a week ago when I took him to obedience practice. It was odd, because he hasn’t shown any lameness before that. But he had been a bit low energy.
So my husband took him to our vet. They moved his legs around and he even yelped because it hurt, poor guy! She said [...]
Whew! What a weekend! I am dead tired. At the end of the first day I thought having a 3 day ASCA trial was a great idea (ASCA is Australian Shepherd Club of America). However, today, after the third day was over, I think two days are better! I’m dead tired. So are my dogs, [...]
