Oh, I wondered how they had split them all up. It all makes sense now...

If I could've cloned myself, I would!!

I'm pretty chuffed with Revvy... He did SO well! :D

Weeeeei! First one for the year! We had a great night tonight at Australia's first Rally-O trial! Jedi 96/100 and 5th place in his ring. Ahsoka 95/100 and 4th place in her ring. Revan 83/100 (even though I hadn't trained him in half the behaviours in his course! What a champ!) 3 for 3!!

I'll be doing it with Mr Revan this year! I think it'll be the easiest yet! Will probably be doing the Sydney ET.

Good luck everyone... For the first time since 2009, I won't be doing P365. I know my limitations and this year is going to be way too hectic to take on a photography project of any kind! Looking forward to seeing the photos though. They are great so far!

One is crated, one sleeps next to the bed and the other is under the bed. They do get to come onto the bed in the morning for some cuddles though

I just got back from our Obedience Club presentations, where Jedi was presented the trophy for Highest Achievement in Canine Competition! It is awarded to the dog who gained the most titles from a variety of disciplines. Feeling very proud of The Fuzz! :D

Yay for the Neuters!!!!!

I'm single and I have 3 dogs (+/- a foster dog). My maximum is 4 dogs so that I have enough time for training, grooming, etc. I didn't notice too much of a jump from two dogs to three. There is quite a bit more work when I have a foster dog, but that's mostly because they require intensive training and grooming to get them to a rehomeable state. Once they are trained up, I don't find there's much of a difference except for the extra food/vet costs.

Zero looks craaaaaaaazy in his pound photo! I don't think I've ever seen that!!!! Jedi - 8 weeks Jedi - Going through the lamb phase Jedi now (3 years) Or for a real comparison... 10 weeks 18 months Ahsoka - 8 weeks Ahsoka - now Revan - Not sure how old he is here, but this is the earliest photo I have of him. Now (~16 months)

Oh I only just saw this. Yeah, I was doing one per day but had to stop if I wanted to pass my degree Priorities! My tips -- I actually did the whole year without a remote! Mine died and I never bothered to get a new one. So it is doable with a timer, but there's lots of running back and forth and finding something as your focus point when you're setting up the shot. A tripod is a MUST though. Here are a few of mine...

Thanks

Seeing as 2012 is only a month away... What is everyone aiming for next year with their training? As usual I have a long list. I don't expect to achieve all of them next year, particularly with my new working hours (I might be lucky to get to a handful of trials!), but I may as well aim big. Jedi * CDX Title * RN Title * RA Title * AD Title * JDX Title * GD Title * SD Title * HT pass Ahsoka * CCD Title * CD Title * JD Title * AD Title * GD Title * RN Title * RA Title * HT pass * Neutered Champion Title Revan * CCD Title * RN Title * RA Title * HIC * HT Title * PT Title * FD Title * FDX Title * FDCh Title * ET Title

Well, it's pretty much the end of the year for us now... We have a few more shows, but no more trials. Jedi * CD Title Done! * CDX Title - Issues with heelwork * Train Scentwork for UD - Still a work in progress! * FDX Title Done! * FDCh Title Done! * AFCh Title Done! * JD Title Done! * JDX Title - Not yet * AD Title - Unfortunately no. Jedi is still getting his confidence back after falling off the dog walk in a trial. * Neutered Champion Title Done! * Maybe a HT pass if we get around to it - Didn't get around to it but made huge progress with his training! Ahsoka * CCD Title - Two passes, one more to go * CD Title * Train for CDX - Work in progress! * ET Title Done! * AFDCh Title Done! * Delta Therapy Dog certification Done! * JD Title - No, but boy are we having fun! * Train for TD - Not enough time! * Maybe a HT pass if we get around to it - No, but Soaks is now herding again after her issues! Woohoo! I can't wait for next year... Lots of goals again and we are going to have loads of fun training and trialling! How'd everyone else go this year?

Fingers crossed for her, Ptolomy!!! I'm sure she will have aced it!

Dr TerraNik MBBS Poor me... My dogs have more degrees than me.

Wooohoooo! That is SO good!!!! I have a personal brag... I passed my final med school exams!! That's all! Back to normal programming!

Congrats RS!!!!

Weeeei! I'm so excited! Jedi just got his JD title!!!! He came 2nd over all heights (pipped for 1st by 0.2 seconds!) :thumbsup:

Sorry to hear about your Mum, AS.

That is hilarious!!!! Love the last shot!

ETs are only held during the cooler months. There won't be any until next year. The NSW dates are: 15 July 2012 - Grafton 12 August 2012 - Erskine Park (Sydney)
