Exercise......then training !!

I thought I would post a couple of photos which Fran took today. It shows me playing with a new toy - a stick!  I never thought the dogs would have so much fun from something so simple.


"Get the stick!"

                              "I knew that stick wouldn't hold my weight !!"


                          Whistle in the mouth......now the serious stuff
                                         
As for Dexter. I let him off the lead on our walk and he really loved the freedom of running around. Although off lead, he never ran off or went too far away.
The habit he had of trying to sit on chairs etc. when he first arrived has now gone and he's learning very quickly that he comes through doors after every person. He sits and waits patiently until invited in - or out.
This makes life so much simpler, irrespective of the dog size.

Let me introduce you to Harry, an Italian Spinone. Harry arrived yesterday for a day's "try out", prior to any long term boarding. He's as gentle as he looks and those eyes .... ! Janet

Summer 2019 - sunshine and showers

How wonderful to see a dog express his enjoyment at being in water as much as Bear does. This youngster loved our muddy ditch and ran up and down constantly. But then came the washing and drying of Bear and the question "why did I allow him to do that ?!" Bear .............and then there was Murray ! Murray Heidi, a recent residential training youngster, loved to let off steam by jumping through the air for a tuft of grass. This Munsterlander was quite a sight, as her long legs allowed her to get quite a leap. Heidi Mick, enjoying some playtime in the heather ! Mick Bert is famous ..... well, in a way he is.
