RubyStar Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) Ninja is being a PITA. Lucky she's so damn cute. She was carrying my slipper around before and shaking it - slippers must die! She has a typical puppy attention span, 30 secs if that and she's off again! Been teaching her to sit, and wait a second then reward with big chasey game of tug toy. Tug must be shaken and killed, too!! Cute growls while shaking are an added bonus She's been a good girl at bed time, though, not a peep out of her when she has been put into her crate to sleep. She was even put back to bed this morning when mum went to work at 6.40am and didn't hear a peep out of her. Got up at 9am and got her up too I must go home soon, though Mum and dad will be left to their own devices with puppy starting from this weekend (dad is hopeless!!!!). I am over taking her out for wees a million times a day Edited August 5, 2011 by RubyStar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summersaint Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I seriously need to get lily back on track with her training...she is being very difficult at the moment its my own fault but god its frustrating - she just chewed through Harry's harness strap (while he was wearing it!!)

SparkyTansy Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Tiggy of course you'd be welcome. Usually it's just me and RV doing the rally course, occasionally RS does a round, and RV does a round or two with one of the red heads. Because it's usually just me and RV, we take long breaks in between to give the dogs a break from the monotony I usually have two dogs to go through, although I'm hoping that RV will be taking Spartan through this term while I focus on my unfocused Weimaraner!! I think that I'll be bringing Lulu down for some puppy cuddles and socialisation next monday, so beyond setting up the course, I may not get much training done!!

Tiggy Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Thanks ST. I'd love to hang out for puppy cuddles etc but I'd have to check with the club first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirawee Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I wouldn't mind doing Rally-O training too. Wish Canine wasn't so far away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summersaint Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 where do you guys do this training?... i wouldn't mind popping down with lily for a watch and maybe try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparkyTansy Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) sps we do it at the canine association on the back oval. You will need to be a member of the Southern River Obedience & Agility club but if you want to come down to watch I'm sure that will be ok. If you think you definitely want to join in, just become a member when you get there and then come down. We are the ones that train in the semi darkness because the light is a bit further away!! Tiggy if you are a member of the club, it's not a big deal I believe, as long as you pay light money to one of the instructors of the classes running on the same night. RV, Ptolomy, and a few others train in the same area but not as part of a class,and as far as I am aware, the club was fine with this as long as we were members, and as long as we paid for the lights each time ($3) Edited August 5, 2011 by SparkyTansy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyStar Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Can one of you please start training retrieving so I can have a training partner It's one of those sports where there is only so much you can do on your own. I feel like I'm up against a brick wall all the time and getting nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparkyTansy Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 RS I do plan on training retrieving at some stage but Lulu is a bit too young to start at your level just yet!!! will be handy though considering we are quite close in proximity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirawee Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Maybe Banjo wants to try retrieving :D I could always pretend he is a working Lab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyStar Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 RS I do plan on training retrieving at some stage but Lulu is a bit too young to start at your level just yet!!! will be handy though considering we are quite close in proximity ST, consider yourself partnered ;) And we aren't too far ahead. Ruby may be 4 and a half years, but her dodo handler has no idea what she is doing! We can meet up soon though, I can throw some puppy bumpers for Lulu and you can throw some longer ones for Ruby (seeing as I don't have a thrower). I'm sure there is plenty we can help each other with without a thrower and with differing levels of current ability in the dogs mirawee, think you should just go and get yourself a Gundog and be done with it. Afterall, they're the best group of dogs there is :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggy Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Bear LOVES retrieving. Does that count? :D It only takes me about 30 mins to get to K9. I thought it was going to take an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
