My, how we've grown!!! We are almost snarky teens .....and have LEGS :) We are learning stuff, like how to remove prickles from feet ..and how to give 'the eye' to those Apostle Birds...

Head pressing ... from memory, this can happen with brain disease , or toxicity, or tumours . please mention this to a vet ,and get some bloods done to check for liver function , etc .

Rotty ? :) Greyhound. ? Golden retriever ..?

I am so pleased you took your camera for a proper walk ... Cameras get a bit difficult if they're bored ;) Practice with this new beast should be interesting - as you have LOTS to hunt & catch :)

wow- great detail of the "baby" grasshopper ..esp its little wing buds :)

The roads got me! Variation in colour, tyre tracks,loose stuff at the kerbs, puddles/snow/reflections, and a man hole cover! Wonderful stuff!!

probably busy running around after a baby slobrador!!! :)

*snap*..

HERE, rozzie :)

agree ..but am very glad the OP can now concentrate on learning other methods now , while her dog is not pulling :)

She is just wonderful :) :)

That is just wonderful :) enjoy!

I just LOVE all your photos & comments on that FB page . I found it a delight to read the little stories about each dog , and see the product of all your work :) To capture interest and tell a story in a few lines of writing - well, that's a talent , IMO ...and the photos show personalities so well! Thankyou for a nice breakfast read :)

As one who has almost zero to do with grooming , I find it interesting to see these before & after shots :) thankyou.

So, who has it now???And what have you done with it????

oh, hell...how many different kinds of sad are tied to this story :(

Ok.... Those pics are fine :) LOVE the one in #35 bee & passionflower :D also adore the "outtake"!! And the ?Bichon? Cute terrier , too .... More, please ...you do good work .

skyefool .. one step, literally , at a time, OK ? I think I've said before - the very first pact I made with my counsellor was to PUT MY BOOTS SHOES ON in teh mornings. Sometimes, like today ..it is the hardest thing to do ...like any training ,tho, it needs practice ;) Why not just sit on your cute front verandah and play with the camera ? :) you are safe and in control there . yes, we will enjoy whatever pics you take .. sexy front fence ..distant trees..cloud shapes ..your shoes...the house windows/walls.... ANY thing can make an interesting photo , and stuff like brick/glass/has good texture to start with. Take care :) Oh..and remember .. Joe & Jill Public will more than likely see a woman with a really nice camera , and think " I wish I could do that...." Wandering with a camera is a bit like wearing an invisibility cloak ;)

Its nothing here for my dogs to get 15 to 20 eggs each a day when the chooks are doing their job well. gas maskz essential :p :p

Our dogs love their "lollies"..an egg or two fed whole .... they crack 'em & slurp 'em .... Old dogs get LOTS of eggs in their diet here ...it;s a way to pack in heaps of nutrition easily .Eggy flips, mince & egg , occasional french toast ....

Good Morning, Skyefool :) As it is practice weekend .. some of these hints /explanations may be useful for you & your new camera ! CLICK excerpt :
