Just dogs...

I'm off for a day of NO DOGS...insanity right?? I'm actually SUPER excited :) Ahhhh...

Day 159: Waiting...
Crackers...waiting for Daddy :)

Have I mentioned how much I love working Even? Only like a million times?? Whaaaa? Yeah...well...here's a million and one :-)
She's game, she's a hard worker and she just gets stuff SOOO quickly and generalizes to EVERYTHING immediately. And she's so teeny she's just freaking cute!...downside...getting her to think can be a bit challenging. So when she is running around jumps and taking the same tunnel 67 million times...and her brain goes to mushy mush...I just smile :) How can you not smile at this face?

Running DW is apparently going well...the last time I worked her was the last video I posted of her. The table was at 8 inches...last night I was lazy and just put the plank on the 16" table. Just to see...if she jumped, I was gonna actually do the work and put everything back down...but, she said WHATEVA!! And nailed them!!
Latent learning is ROCKIN' :-)) She's so much like her mother...it's just so fun!

Speaking of fun...Lynn, not to be outdone has no issues with turning now :) I didn't get video of it this week, but she is driving into the turns. I still need to work on my timing...but that's OK. It's so nice to know I don't have to scream and PRAY she comes off the obstacle ahead of her...YIPPEE!!! A great feeling!

AND...also like her mother...Lynn has decided she is no longer a thinker...but a doer...should make the next few trials interesting! HA!!! She bites, she steals toys, she screams, she barks, she is breaking start lines...oh lordie. And sadly...I love it :) But the start line I kinda need to get back Lynn. I actually had to pull her for breaking...like 2 times in a role...she didn't much appreciate that and told me about it...but after that she figured out if she stayed she gets to play. BRAT :) LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!

I've decided my next dog isn't going to get much training until they are 2 :-)) Much easier that way! LOL

The blog got nominated for a cute little award...will talk more about that when I get back from no dog land! :)

LATA!!!!!!

Even looks great and I can't wait to see Lynn's turns!!! Why did you not bless us with video?!!

I'm pretty sure that I need to drive all the way up there so you can see what Vito's doing. This on my own stuff isn't working out to well.

Ok I'm going to put you on the spot and ask if on a saturday or sunday I could come down and learn from the master or would it need to be a weekday?

LOL not sure if I am a master of anything, but I can try to help you! :)

Weekend is fine...I am gone the next 2 weekends trialing...but after that I have a break. Just send me a PM and we can figure something out :)
