Tiggy Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) I was just wondering who's going to the Sue Hogben seminar on Saturday? I'm coming with Banjo. I'm a bit nervous because we're nowhere near trialling level . I'm looking forward to it though . Edited August 23, 2009 by Tiggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huski Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I will definitely have to try and get to a Sue Hogben seminar one of these days, she's supposed to be great! Although I've heard that she says she won't train Siberians or Mallies, which is funny as my Siberian is highly trainable. Next time she comes to Brissy, I will definitely have to ask her about it!

ness Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 And here I was thinking Kenzie wouldn't be ready for the Nationals cos she wouldn't stay - sounds like she would just blend in nicely . As for Ness I have everything crossed for a non-repeat of last years stay disaster at the Royal . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time she comes to Brissy, I will definitely have to ask her about it! I was concerned with your comment so I asked Sue to reply...to quote her.. I've never said I 'won't' train Sibes or Mallies, but from the few dogs I've seen here they don't seem easy dogs to train, when they do work well they're wonderful! I know in NZ they cross Sibes with BCs to breed excellent obedience dogs. End of quote. Hope that clears a few things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that clears a few things Oh, sorry if I caused any concern it was just a passing comment I heard that piqued my curiousity (for obvious reasons) - I would love to attend one of Sue's seminars ;) Thanks for clearing that up for me Although I must admit I've heard about the BC/sibe crossed and find the concept absolutely terrifying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubyStar Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) Tiggy, if I can pick you out of the crowd by Banjo, I will say hi too, but please look for me and the Lab who will either be eating the grass or just being a plain nuisance! To anyone else going that I haven't met, please don't be a stranger! I don't know many people I want to hire a scribe so I can have them take the notes while I spend my whole time listening! Sooo hard to do both!! Does anyone know whereabouts at the K9 it's being held? Undercover or one of the ovals?
