  1. Banjo might not be making his debut on the 12th, tried a sit stay today and he drops, I was naughty though and asked for too much, so back to baby steps, finished on a good note though, also have to train the return as he lifts his leg up as I return around him.
  2. What a beautiful day , I'm off to the polo club to do some training, back to work tomorrow . I wish I could be a stay at home mum to my fur kids .
  3. aww the boys Did you post this after the puppies woke you up?
  4. I've got a 20" coming for Banjo, hope it fits. If it's too big we can swap ;) I went a bit big for Lincoln and it fits him around the neck JUST so I don't think it will last long. ANd then Toby can wear it! The things we do for these dogs! Did you get the trim colour you wanted?

  6. mirawee if I come I might try to steal Diva, should be able to squash her in the car , two Banjo's would be confusing .
  7. Wow is that Strauss, he got big, and he's dark .
  8. Sorry about Toby . I've made the decision I won't be trialling Sophie as she's just not sound anymore . I don't care for me and doing agility but it is so sad that my not even two and a half year old dog is unsound and must be in pain. And as if thats not enough he has allergies too. Oh well pity party is over. Where is the trial in November? I might be showing on the same day and can watch. I feel the same way about Sophie and she's only 4, well nearly 5 but still a young dog. I don't care that I can't trial her, what makes me sad is that she might never be able to run around off leash like she loves again, my boys are plodders , Sophie is a nut she has one speed - full speed, I feel mean on walks that she has to stay on lead atm. Onto a happy subject the trial is at Canine .
  9. I googled parvo a couple of days ago and everything I read said it is NOT airborne, it is a contact disease. I thought that to .
  10. Sorry about Toby . I've made the decision I won't be trialling Sophie as she's just not sound anymore .
  11. Failing any of the exercises is a fail - which includes the stays. In fact if you get less than 50% of the total for an exercise - that too is a fail. But don't go there - be positive! Thanks for explaining - it all makes sense now . I wasn't posting this thinking Banjo was going to fail a stay it was just something I've always wondered and I actually didn't know you had to pass all the exercises which probably sounds dumb but I thought as long as you got a total passing score you passed so I'm glad I asked. I'm actually really excited about entering, just have to see if we can pass the SFE and group stays at training and I'll definitely enter.
  12. Sorry for the dumb question but if a dog still scores a passing score even if it fails one of the stays does it still pass or does it have to pass both stays.
  13. I'll probably be a nervous wreck . I have two weeks back at club training before entries close to see if he'll do a SFE and group stay .
  14. I've been there a few times with my girls, but I won't go this time of year now as there is lots of bush on one side of the track and I'm wary of snakes ;) There's snakes just about everywhere I walk, even the park down the road has a lot of bush, I spotted two snakes on one walk once . I hate this time of year I get so paranoid about snakes, I'll see a stick and think it's a snake and be frantic calling the dogs back . See winter is good summer loving people .
  15. Hey just wondering do you use those entry forms that kinda look like cheques for all obedience/agility trials and how do you get more? Thanks ;)
  16. I'm thinking about entering an obedience trial with Banjo . It's on the 12th of November, if we're ready before entries close I'll enter. It'll be our first trial .
