Tiggy

Nice choice I love the working Kelpies .

I'm another one who stopped training at a club and consequently had to go right back to basics and train my dog to have fun and focus in his obedience work. I could never put him through those long boring classes again. I may be taking him back to the club this year but no classes just distraction training outside of class.

Staffy x Pug what the hell.

He's such a sweetie .

I miss having horses to ;) . My last one was an anglo.

'Dork' haven't heard that one for a while ;) .

Ahhh I'll be nervous if you're my judge .

I did read that ;) .

I want the judge to put us through our paces ;) . Good to test my nerves to.

I'd like to take Banjo to the upcoming practice trials but I've never been to one before so just wondering can I just do one exercise like the heeling and that's it and if so how does that work, do I just let the judge know what I want to run through. Thanks in advance .

For me my breed is Staffords. I love the breed and could never be without one. I'm hoping to start trialing Banjo in Obedience this year. I actually like the challenge of not having a herding or gundog. I'm going to be so proud when he does hit the ring and show what a great little breed they are.

Great photos . I love the way they help themselves to the apples :D .

What a little character .

The pup probably was a choc lab, I was at a bit of a distance so I couldn't really tell.

I was with my Dad and he was trying to yell out Hi valleywa but I stopped him .

Oh how embarrassing .

Hey valleywa I saw you at riverside today . I spotted your puppy(very cute!) then your kelpie. Whose gsp was it? It was nice .

Hey Whipitgood if you haven't watched them already the Patty Ruzzo dvds are a must watch and feature her Whippet 'Flyer'. Just goes to show what a great trainer can achieve with any breed of dog. http://www.dogwise.com/itemdetails.cfm?ID=DTB931

It's raining here .

The pink and grey galahs love the seed pods .

I just took some better photos . Sorry for the thread hijack RubyStar .

I thought I was bad but Ness you take the cake .

It does have the longish seed pods. It's not a Wattle, I think it's a NZ tree?

Hey RubyStar did you check my tree sugguestion on your other post ;) .
