My mums border collie would rather sit in a chair outside than in her kennel!

Great videos,the last one which shows step by step is wonderful.What great tricks!!!!!!!

Its really your choice wether or not you want him clipped.If he is not that knotty you could go half the length,it is much easier for you if he is clipped and probably cooler for him. He's very handsome!!!!!

It is totally up to you what you do,I like the idea of chargeing more for matted dogs and donate the profit to a foundation etc.

Thats ok Husky87,we think you look great in it!!!!!!!!!!!

I would do the cotton wool trick and what you yourself said about touching her ears when you are not cleaning them.To get her trust back,even play with her with the bottle nearby?Lots of positive reinforcement,food rewards etc. Lots of dogs ears smell but they really stink when they are infected.Hope all goes well for you,I'm with your Beagle though,I hate anything in my ears.......have to cotton bud water out after a shower or I go mad.Maybe she has extra sensitive ears like me. P.S husky87 my daughter wanted you to know she absolutely loves your avatar!!!!!!!!!!

wow that was amazing.Look at that shetland go,it looked like it was in fast forward. Puts me to shame!!!!!!!!

Quickly get the puppy to breath into a contauner and seal it,send it my way.I love puppy breath. The best smell ever!!!!

Cash is gorgeous,love the tricks!! Have got Josie to roll a ball back to me.Will see if I can video it.

Panda was such a gorgeous cat and he will carry on in your heart were he left footprints of love!! Wishing I could do more to ease your pain.

Thank you so much CTD,they are very helpful!!!!!! Tia is absolutely gorgeous.I will be trying the backwards walking this week and the retrieve. Josie came running up to me when she heard the clicker on tia's videos,she's so cute.

I am so sorry for your loss.My son found his Tiger cat the same way,its so very sad when they go before their time. Sending you lots of hugs and kisses.RIP Panda.

Ok,so I am using clicker training and going ok.I just feel like I am not up to the standard my dog is!! Josie is only 51/2 months old and loves to train and please.Do you keep a record (written) of what you have done and how it went.Should I concentrate on a few things rather than lots of things at once. Everybodies videos are excellent,love them all.CTD I am currently reading through your site and it is very interesting. Are there any videos where the trick isn't finalised,that the dog is still learning,this could be helpful to people aswell.

Oh my gosh what a terrible way to loose a dear friend.rip litttle emmy

Josie, 5months old(maltesexshih tzu) and I have just started our basic training together at an agility club in qld.There are certain rules about young puppies jumping but they have no worries about training for agility.It can be a long process which takes time.I don't think they like them jumping before 18months old it can cause damage to their growing bones. http://www.adcq.com.au/index.php?act=viewDoc&docId=61 if you go to the above page it has links to clubs in NSW . Good luck!!!!!!

My little Josie likes devon,natures gift,the ones you keep in the fridge,liver treats.Also I find she absolutely goes bananas over any sort of chicken!!!!Must get some for this weeks training session. Sometimes I find she gets bored so I try and mix it up.

Awwww its so cute that I'm not the only one that went warm and fuzzy when my Josie lost her first tooth.I was lucky enough that it dropped out in my hand from a tug toy.Toothfairy(OH) put $4 in the glass where I put her tooth in. I went out the next day and bought her some chicken necks.Since then I have got a total colection of 3 teeth that I am going to put on a scrapbooking page.She has lost all her front top and bottom teeth and tomorrow she is five months.

I can't really help but just wanted to wish you,mum and the pups the best.I think it would be cruel to put all the puppies down,I remember our collie we had when I was a child lost all her pups and she was depressed for ages. Please keep us posted and I'm sure whatever happens she is in good hands!!!

thanks blacklabrdor but it is way to far away from me

Its hard to remember that these dogs are dogs,don't worry I have one and I always have to remind ometimes its my OH who reminds me and I don't even realise what I have /haven't done. Obedience yes very much so,I'm taking Josie,she is nearly 5 months and this week has been a horror.

Just curious where the training actually is located?

Great videos,Leo is such a gorgeous looking dog.Love your cat aswell.

Such beautiful words that Tea bag would love.I am so sorry for your loss and crying while I read this looking at my beautiful Tiger(cat) that I still miss aswell.I am sure Tea bag knows how much you cared,it surely shows in this post. Thoughts are with you in this difficult time in loosing such a beautiful cat.

Thank you everybody,She has enjoyed her bone but she also has lots of chew toys and balls.I rotate all her toys and chew things so she is not getting board.She also enjoys a treat in her kong which keeps her entertained for hours. Love your sig Shmoo,I hope to own a greyhound from a rescue one day,they are just such gorgeous dogs.

Oh my gosh what agorgeous pup.My husband actually picked my pup out too via photo on the mobile.Even though she is no pedigree,I wouldn't change a thing.Keep us informed with the name etc. I like Amy though.
