Hey good job Tiggy and where did all this motivation come from Banjo did a great job heeling - what sort of food were you using - the cheese would have been good)? Strauss was better on the outside cirlces than the inside ones (and still is and it looks like Banjo is the same). Start Bear on catching food now away from heeling. I have just had a look at your rear end awareness videos The one of Bear was how Strauss started too and it didn't take him long to catch on at all - its funny because at this stage they are oblivious to the phone book even being there - just more intent on getting the chunks of cheese. The one of Banjo on his stiff side. Try standing opposite him and asking him to line up or get in or whatever your command is for him to find heel position and you stand still - he might find this easier. Hmm actually you will have to break this down a bit, you stand with him in heel and take a step to your right and ask him to line up. Once he can do this, then you take 2 steps etc until you are opposite him and he can scoot around. I don't know where the motivation came from but I like it ;) . I'm really into obedience at the moment :D . I was using cheese. Thanks for the tips will definitely try what you suggested for Banjo and start teaching Bear to catch food .

Banjo - I was attempting the heel work with arm out like Ptolomy showed in her vid . It will go smoother when he learns to catch the food . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7tQxHla3V8

I love my breed first, if we can have some fun together in the dog sports that's a bonus. I wouldn't be without an SBT and I can't imagine I would ever get a breed specifically with dog sports in mind, I did however get my newest addition from a breeder who breeds the type I was after which is a more active/agile dog and I'm hoping he'll be a great little agility dog .

Sophie's back home. We're leaving the leg one more month then if there's no improvement or she snaps the cruciate before then she'll have the op. She has a lot of arthritis around the joint, the vet showed me on the x-ray, but the vet said it's actually a good thing because it's helping to stabilise her leg. So we'll see in a months time. I think she'll end up with the op but trying to think positive because that long recovery after the op is a major PITA.

It's Schutzhund isn't it? Snap OSoSwift

Looks like the dog would get a sore neck

Let us know how she gets on and dare I ask do you have HBF no HBF just my credit card Pet insurance wouldn't have covered it anyway because she did the left cruciate already and legs come in pairs ;)

Sophie's at the Vet today for her leg. Just getting put under so they can further investigate but I think the cruciate op is inevitable ;) .

Banjo was feeling left out :p http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RccnhJvLFvM I loved his attitude, he was a real nutcracker. He's missed training, so his naughty mum better get off her butt and do something with him .

Yay Strauss!!!!! It must have been that massive jackpot on Sat after coming out of the ring :p Are people heading to K9 tonight? I have my on monday night training group now, ( if 2 is a group lol) tonight it the first night, quite excited. Where is it? In Ellenbrook? ;) (If it's close I might come join at some stage) yes details please

Bear Sorry it's so dark http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3W6tgbIjdo
