Tiggy

I hate it when I lose motivation . I think for me it comes from comparing myself to what others are doing/have achieved with their dogs and feeling like I'll never get there and lately I've just had too much of a puppy brain to think about much else . I just take a break for a week or so then I feel super motivated to get back into it and sometimes I'll just work on fun shaping exercises etc so we're still training but I'm not putting any pressure on myself I guess. I know I could never go back to obedience classes, I shudder at the thought, so if obedience is something I want to do I'll drive to K9 on Mondays but my focus is agility at the moment(RS is probably thinking heard this before ) and when I start putting pressure on myself I think hey this is a fun hobby I do with my dogs, at the end of the day I just want to enjoy the time spent with my dog . Sorry for the ramble .

Not embarrased at all but seriously proud!! My work contract is up for renewal so I am being a good girl and not DOLing at work ATM ;) Good idea

Where's Miss vCBR lately? Hope she's not embarrassed she topped the list for posts in this thread , don't be shy it's too quiet in here without you :D .

Hope Varda is feeling better soon mirawee I always found my vet bills for horses cheaper than the dogs vet bills, it's crazy :D

I just finished off the fencing for Shimi, it took 3 1/2 hours , I was so over it by the end but glad it's all done.

I know thanks to RSG I have my Shimi album from 2 days to 8 weeks

The count down starts - It's a week today little Shimi arrives

Poor bedazzled you're not having much luck with long leads are you :D .

emery my guess is 6 pups :D

That'll go by in no time!! I'm getting very excited :D

At least you can get daily Shimi updates on here :D .

Shimi is 8 weeks old now, she arrives in 8 days . I love this photo Pea and Shimi - I love this boy, I wish I could have them both This is just cute

For the first time in weeks I have no clean run orders on the way but I'm already thinking I should grab some wubbas while they're on free shipping but I know I'll be tempted to get other stuff to so must stay away .

Fencing part 2

That sounds too sensible

Sorry about that VM, Kenobi is keeping with the theme I see .

awww Vader's so cute I'm sure your Mum won't be able to resist having him on the lounge

Yay for doggies on the lounge

Love this one It's so hard to photograph a black dog to

I'm loving these pics RSG is taking

Who can pick which one is Shimi The Whippets look like they're thinking "oh sh*t, a WAVE of Staffords, we're gonna get drowned in puppy slobber!" Such a great shot! Shimi... is on the far left? Correct

go on rub it in

Who can pick which one is Shimi

:rofl: Congrats on another great score and win I hadn't even heard of the West Coast Challenge

Thanks Golden :p They are a very cute "odd" couple My boxer likes to show off around the sibe, and acts like a puppy when he is around He has made her young again (she is 8) :D I know it's great isn't it? My big Goldie just turned 8 and back into a puppy when the little one came along a few weeks back :D lab rat - no good! Hope you feel better soon!! Go hug your dogs, they are the best medicine! My old boy Buster(10) is soon to meet puppy number 3 . It does keep him young although they've given him grey hair :D .
