Sue & Waldo

Got to love them!

Mmmm I am hoping Waldo will be ready by then-I better get my act in gear as I have NO excuse now. (DD was married 28.4 so my excuse is on her honeymoon) You can do it Sue :D And someone better get it on video for us! I wanna see the cutie Waldo strutting his stuff!!! Yeah well Sir Cute Waldo has just eaten the inner part of my favourite walking shoes and "hidden" the inner soles. I will get a video of training should he live that long. (Payback for a sleep-in so while I was having a shower he had SO MUCH FUN!). Perhaps he thought I had forgotten his first birthday.

I have a black mini Schnauzer and the conversation often goes like this: Person Is that a Scottie Me No he is a Schnauzer Person I have never seen a black one Me They come in 3 colours and 3 sizes Person Are you sure? Me Yes Person He looks like a Scottie Me No-he is German

Not sure if this would suit but friends stayed here http://www.stayz.com.au/26261

I'm wondering the same thing SK I find if I pay Leerburg with Visa it can work out cheaper than Paypal. Could that be it the difference??? - I paid Dogwise with my Visa card (there wasn't a Paypal option that I could see) OK I don't know why but when I did a recalculation for postage it was $25. I think the default was an express postage. This forum should be reported as dangerous because now I have spent the money I was going to spend then didn't because of postage and now have because I convinced myself it was cheaper

I am going to make it my mission to find these Doggone Good treat bags. It makes me want it even more now they dont ship to Oz.It could get expensive looking through training supplies sites, I love shopping :) If you can't find them let me know and I can always buy one from my obedience club for you when it starts up again in a couple of weeks and post it to you. Same with you Mea. :) ETA: They have it here for $30 plus $7.20 postage and Dogwise have it for $17.99 plus $11 shipping. :) And here http://www.aussieagility.com.au/productdetails/bait_rapid_rewards.htm

A friend has one - where did you get yours?

Yeah postage ruled me out too.

Oh no, naughty Waldo!! Glad to hear his training is coming along nicely! Can't wait to hear how you go in your first trial when you take the plunge! I've been training obedience with Pippa when my original intention was to do agility with her She is coming along nicely herself and I am looking forward to trialling her at some stage! She only has a short stay happening, and I haven't taught her a stand yet - lots to do! But she's so much fun :D How old is Pippa? Honestly he has never destroyed anything before-except tissues so it is weird. He was awesome tonight. He even heeled walking backwards when I was working on correct positions. His stand is straighter in heeling but not see so I am going to video it to see what I am doing. I think he takes a few steps to find a true heel position so in the sfe he is not quite as switched on. Not sure though

mmm wonder if Waldo will be ready for CCD. (IF HE LIVES THAT LONG)-he has found a loose thread in the middle of the hall carpet and unravelled a section 45cm x 5cm. Wonder what exercise he was training for? ETA Man I must be tired-so many typos

yeah I made the same mistake-I should NOT have looked at this thread. Oh dear.

Thank you for asking-it is nice of you to enquire how things are. Anyone want a carpet eating black schnauzer-he has unravelled the seam of the carpet and then found a loose thread to pull-i have a hession strip 1" wide and the width of the hall? From the training point of view he is doing very well. His recalls are wonderful-both informal & formal. His stays are solid. SFE are good but he does tend to be very crooked when he stands. His heeling is good. He will be 11 months old next week and very close to trialling. He loves RallyO!. I may well have entered Easter RallyO but my DD's wedding is only 3 weeks away and life is a bit busy. He is an awesome dog - wonderful company and an amazing friend. I am far calmer and more confident working out how to train him and it shows. I don't mind if I have to try something else. He is visiting in nursing homes and gets spoilt there. He is very cheeky and yes I am besotted. Just a great pity about the carpet. :laugh: I should add that it is the only thing he has destroyed-he just waited until this week to be a naughty destructive puppy!

Well done TSD & Ziggy!

Yep. left OH in charge of puppy. Puppy is quiet therefore all ok he thinks. Destroyed shoes and orthotics prove that all is not OK. Explain that quiet can mean big trouble. Next time all is quiet and OH is in charge Waldo is eating the hall carpet. Go figure.

Sue & Waldo :D catch up with us on Tues night at FOO & my partner will help you to learn how to do scent discrimination :D OK thanks-I missed this week-spent the week with a virus

Are you sure it is a SMALL Brag. Not sure what to say except:

Great! What was the reaction?

perspicacious even!

Wow! Well done. (See you tomorrow night to hear all about it!)

Yep - same here.

Well done!

Can you sew button holes into the cover you have and sew buttons on to the car seat? I have sewn buttons on to the back of the seat near the rear shelf and this works. I used about 5 buttons and we have a Magna sedan. Or sew the buttons on and put the exisitng loops over them.

Oh dear. How do you go about training it?
