ness

Nope Kenz's dad is Sombrero Spinna. Thats really scary about the fires being that close to the houses - hope everybody is ok. ETA. I remember Kyzer receiving that trophy .

http://www.winpara.com/flyte.html Thats Flyte's page on Robyn's website. My old girl Ness has two Tullacrest Parents and Kenz's dad is a Torobeam Dog LOL.

Wahoo good boy Kyzer - chocolate is always an excellent prize to win :D .

Nah Mason2009 - its really fun. I love being able to talk to my dog and pick things you know the dog enjoys to keep the enthusiasm up. The dogs have a blast. So much more exciting then an obedience ring :D . And Kenz likes it too because there are no scary judges or stewards standing right close to you . Hoping to get interstate and trial again one of these days. Think Kenz would do a lovely job of the Surfin USA routine I used for Ness.

:D no clip Ptolomy its just a link to a website. Obviously Tiggy you didn't explore the site that thoroughly otherwise you would have found this page http://www.danceswithdogsaustralia.com/sa-hall-of-fame.html

LOL RM will trade you a loan of the SG ones in return for borrowing the foundation one :D .

:D Kenz's half brother Flyte has a DWD title as does Brodie - sorbiquet trials in it and I know she is a member on here. Hey midget dog has a DWD title too .

Fantastic work SmoothieGirl (and Bronte) lovely sash .

Wahoo I am convinced the baby midget dog knows and understands UD scent discrimination. I have been using the same heavy scented articles with her but this afternoon I tested her out with a fresh box of articles and just scented one of each type from my second box and she had no hassles with finding the correct one each time . Good girl Kenz. UD isn't suppose to be this easy is it ROFL.

ValleyCBR what have you done to teach the right finish (assuming you mean the round the back one). Have you tried teaching him to circle around a cone. Kenz is mad for circling objects and once the dog is enthusiastic at runinng around something I found it easy to substitute it for me rather than an object. If you lure them around the cone inititally you can get a nice tight circle.

Ptolomy I am curious why you and bedazzledx2 both opted for metal for the UDX seekback. I read the discussion on Ozobedience and see a number of people using metal and was wondering why metal was selected. I think I would be inclined to select wood if I got that far as to me it seems no different an extension to the find a stick in the long grass game I have been playing since Kenz was little. Is there any logic behind using metal rather than something like wood or is it more just personal preference.

Hmm Ptolomy that sounds like what Kenz was doing for her tug the past week - maybe she has been chanelling Cider .

Well done Barb - hmmm maybe I should suggest that Kenz channels Cider if thats the way it works .

don't get the council started on titles - my girl has two titles but never got a Basic Obedience certificate and the local council had no clue so even though she is trained a level well beyond "Basic Obedience" I still don't get the $4 trained dog discount. Maybe somebody should educate the council a little better .

interesting and annoying cos I much rather the pretty Dogs West silver limited register papers then the Dogs SA disgusting orange one LOL.

Tiggy when Kenz got her first title I sent in the paper work to my local canine and it came back with SA papers.

Just play Ruby a few of Kenz's youtube clips but just make sure its only the rounds where she was fast AND kept all her bars up .

the bar knocking is her BC bits I reckon RS. I ran a course with Kenz last night and as it was the final night we just ended up running at 300 and little brat was still pulling as many bars as she would at 400 or even 500 .

Nooooo I don't really need them do I - I mean who wants 6ft leads anyway right .

so do I Tiggy so do I - its been sitting there for a week so far.

I want to get a foam ball on a rope. Those foam balls are awesome.

Hugs Valley. You'll just have to fill your spare time with those troublesome red dogs. I am sure they will help cheer you up .

awwwwww dear Lars Ptolomy. Well I have to laugh my bag of a dog Ness who was a disgrace at the last trial to the point where I thought I'd hang up her Obedience shoes once and for all came out last night and put together the UD round of her life. Bitch - guess I might have to reconsider my plans for her next year . Meanwhile her little sister is going free to any home that wants her .

Nah probably more like tollertree ;) . But I think the toller tree has been vacant of red dogs for a while now.

:D not seen a whingy GSP but will look out for one .
