Lablover Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 K9: Stillw aiting for them to arrivce from the states, should be any day now...You like the new ball? Liked the new ball, you mean LOL. Yes, but more importantly the dogs did too. An interesting test was with Peppa. Though she was very keen on the "old" ball, I noticed a definite preference for the lost ball. I was so distracted loosing the ball, I left bumpers on the front of my vehicle. I pulled over when they fell off at the first turn, LOL. Forgot to take the damm peg off my jacket though while I shopped. My whistle looks bad enough!!!! Yank is heeling like a star and improving in leaps and bounds in every other way. Off to the pub for lunch!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canid Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Thanks about the balls, but are the balls you get different from the ones Ed Frawley markets? And is what you do with the balls and prey drive similar to what Bernhard Flinks does with the balls? Just interested. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve K9Pro Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 K9: not sure what you want to know... ? I use the balls as a prey item? Cant really describe the method over the internet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canid Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I guess the real question is whether you have seen or worked with Bernhard Flinks and Ed Frawly and if you have, then maybe your method is similar, that's all - just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lablover Posted June 13, 2006 Author Share Posted June 13, 2006 (edited) Too funny wyvernblade. Those who attended the recent SARDOG/K9 force seminar, might have noticed Yank, my wild youngster. He makes even the darkest day, bright. I cannot believe the improvement. BTW, no more nearly constant teeth chattering!!!! Woooooooo hoooooooooo.

Erny Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 (edited) But the teeth chattering was soo cute! Reminded me of my grandpa ............ Does Yank have false teeth? Edited June 14, 2006 by Erny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lablover Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 I tell you Erny, His chattering was apparent before he arrived. But not mentioned until, he was being checked by the US vets. The pet transport company telephoned me to mention the vets did not think it a medical problem. They also said when the vets saw him, they all laughed. Meanies, as they had never had a dog so "out there" ever before. When I first saw him in quarantine he chattered his teeth LOUD and constantly. I did worry if the teeth chattering did not pass, he would indeed end up with false teeth at a very early age. The strange thing is, I have since found out his dam, teeth clatters, while Yanks has ceased. Interesting!!!!|! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
