New stuff!

I could see Tango saying to himself, "Yawn... This same old stuff? Sit, down, over, weave. Not gonna happen." And he sat down and didn't budge. And, while it's true, that same old stuff still needs lots of work, we needed to mix things up. So I introduced a new behavior - jump! From a sit, I ask Tango to jump and he's supposed to jump straight up in the air. It's starting out that he's standing on his back legs for a cookie, but he'll get there, and he seems to like our new game. - Fran...
Everything was more difficult today

Why was everything more difficult today? Balancing the checkbook took 3 hours. And for someone who was a corporate accountant in a past life, that's bad. Tango did not want to work today. Back to basics. Like, "what's sit?" Honestly? And credit cards not working. Duplicate orders. People wanting 30 characters on a line of a tag. Grrr. A bright spot, though - Sandra with her two Brussels Griffons, Jill and Joey, came to work with her trainer! Here's a picture of Joey with my Tango. Sandra is...

Torturing Tango

In our spare time here at the shop when we have our dogs around, we like to have them "model" items that we hadn't previously gotten photos with real dogs. Tango knows what's coming when I get the camera and treats! It looks like he's saying, "Oh mom - another one?" But I think he looks pretty cute in the Spring Vest by Puppia and the matching leash! - Fran

Tango and I have an Agility trial tomorrow, but it looks like it might take some doing to rev him up to run! Yes, Tango is lying in his crate with the door wide open. - Fran

Dax made me proud at the Rally Obedience Trial a couple of weeks ago in Louisville. She qualified three out of three days - earning her Rally Novice title in just one weekend. Her achievement also won her an adorable, ribbiting frog plush toy from our French Bulldog Performance Palooza. Which she destroyed in less than three seconds today. So I made her wear it. - Hope

So, what would you do with 640 million dollars? Tonight is the world's biggest lottery drawing. I bought a few - couldn't resist. Let's dream for a little. I'd buy Tango a new collar - he deserves it! I'd buy me some neat stuff. And I'd buy a new RV to live in the Florida Keys. Buy a cool new building for Golly Gear and Dogs in the Ring. One big enough for a couple rings for an AKC Agility Trial. Sounds good to me. Meanwhile, back to reality and cranky customers, twitchy credit card...Back from Louisville, with ribbons!

Last weekend Hope and I went to Louisville for 4 action-filled days of dog shows! We both competed in Agility (Hope with Teddy, and me with Tango), and Hope competed in Rally Obedience with Dax. In just three days, Dax received her Rally Novice title! Tango and I had fun but only had one qualifying run in Open Standard. Teddy and Hope did a little better with two qualifying runs - one in Open Jumpers and one in Open Standard. - Fran Dax weaving in Rally OTeddy jumpingTango going over a triple...
