MsKatie Posted November 12, 2009 Author Share Posted November 12, 2009 You know you don't need slobbery lips in the hot weather, the big droopy lips and jowls slapping on you in the middle of the night, the panting, the puppy breath etc do I need to go on or should I just pm you my address now But surely all that slobber would cool you down in the hot weather ;) I do like the name Elwood Congratulations - he was my favourite in the litter. Are you going to show him? Wasn't planning on showing him - going to obedience train him (apparently this will be an intersting task - oh well - never been one to turn down a challenge ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsKatie Posted November 12, 2009 Author Share Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) Umm I TRIED to do obedience with mine, focus - yes on what SHE wanted to focus on, It's the jealousy talking, not me, I promise sounds like the 10 year olds in my class casowner - I promise you lots of squishy cuddles - and as much drool as we can spare - lots of it I assure you ;) Get a copy of the book "When Pigs Fly!

Sayly Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Wish you were showing him, I'd have to get cuddles every show! Look at his squishiness! Looking forward to meeting him at a DOL meet eventually! OH saw the pic and goes "We will have to have a Bloodhound one day." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshleyB Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) Wasn't planning on showing him - going to obedience train him (apparently this will be an intersting task - oh well - never been one to turn down a challenge ) Ignore what everyone is saying about good luck to you obedience training him (sorry guys!). Yes, they are hounds, but it is possible. Mum trialled a bloodhound bitch successfully for many years. They may not be like a working dog (etc) to train, but it is most certainly possible. Good luck with your new puppy. Edited November 12, 2009 by AshleyB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsKatie Posted November 12, 2009 Author Share Posted November 12, 2009 Looking forward to meeting him at a DOL meet eventually!OH saw the pic and goes "We will have to have a Bloodhound one day." Tell him to give Centitout a ring when the time is right and have a chat with her Ignore what everyone is saying about good luck to you obedience training him (sorry guys!). Yes, they are hounds, but it is possible. Mum trialled a bloodhound bitch successfully for many years. They may not be like a working dog (etc) to train, but it is most certainly possible Thanks AshleyB - I am currently training our 18 month old kelpie bitch so I assume a male bloodhound WILL be very different - the instructor at the Obedience club I go to said to bring it out and he will work with me - he says it is just a different approach but it is great to hear about someone who has succeeded with a bloodhound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
