Mason_Gibbs

RV are we just bringing the puppies along??

CC when u go to Zoo pet store again pls can u price the Canidae grain free salmon for me?? The 6,8 kg and the 13kg bag i think it is???

All is going much better now he sits for his food and i make him look at me before i put his bowl down

Im free all day at this stage, should we say arvo as we dont know how late the states will go on to?? CC are u coming to take pics??

I think i will battle with SFE with Gibbs as he cant wag his tail without moving all 4 paws :rofl:

Masons food is here hubby went to go and collect it for me

Gibbs has caught onto the clicker straight away so I am quite happy about that as I use it with Mason

I can do the 25th too RV, thats the sunday after the states??

Have done Mirawee!! I kept the same name for over a year this time, just didnt want to leave Gibblet out

Katie i know im far which is why i dont come to K9 often....

Sounds exciting Mirawee!!

Exactly as i have paid for delivery but now am ending up collecting it. Yeah i dont mind Ruby and Millie meeting Gibbs, we can do it at the same time or i could bring him 1 weekend just let me know when u not busy. I cant do this weekend but could do the following 1.

I tried flip finished but OMG Mason is so useless at it!! His rear end awareness is just not good enough, I have trained it heaps but I am obviously not doing it right as he does not get it. He is beter since he saw the chiro but not 100%. I want to start rear end awareness earlier with Gibbs than what I did with Mason as I think i missed the boat with him :rofl:

I am so cross! I ordered some stuff online, had to wait a week as they had no stock of the food I am after, it shipped last week, got into Perth on friday and now the courier tells me they are 2 busy and can only bring it like in 2 weeks time. I am fuming!! And have gotten hubby to go and collect after work as the warehouse is in Kewdale so not far from his work luckily.!!!! :mad :mad

Maybe we could do it at someones house and Gibbs could go along too? He is a thug with his own litter so I will keep a close eye on him, little ratbag :rofl:

At our trial on Saturday, we lost one point in the recall, and that was because she finished about a half step too far forward and a little squiffy. So frustrating when this happens. She'd been finishing a half step too far back, so obviously we've over corrected it! He sits right next to me but the body faces a bit toward me at times, I am trying to correct it but its taking some time.

Also is it too early to be teaching an 8,5 week old pup to drop?? I think Mason was a bit older when I taught him. I am battling to get Gibbs to drop though, he does not lay down if i lure him with the food between his front legs like I learnt to do at dog dlub with Mas.

Hi all, just wanted to know, if my boy sits a bit skew after the finish in Novice what will I be penalised, its not very very skew but not as straight as I would like it, Im still working in this

I was training whistle in the house this morning for retrieving ( after going in to work and finding out that I am not actually working today ) and Gibbs was watching and then starting joining Mason in sitting when I whistled :rofl:

Leaving the 2 boys along together for the first time to go to work ( they were alone for 3hrs yesterday while I went to Medicare), I will only be gone 5 hrs but Im going to miss them

Lots of allergy dogs are prone to staph infections, i would not discount allergies at this point. If he has an allergy to beef its highly likely he could have other allergies. My dog is atopic and has food allergies

My first lab was much easier to toilet train for some reason and i have done the same thing with both of them

I would say my big lab was trained 100% in 2 months, my new baby i got this weekend and he has no clue although we are getting better daily. He will sleep in his crate for 7 hrs at night without needing the loo

I think maybe my lab is just unsure about what the puppy is as he hss never spent time around such a young dog before

CC We were in the conference centre behind windows watching so i couldnt but i believe we will be getting sent some stills so when i have them i will show them to u when i see you
