I couldn't be more elated about it! I'm getting a 4 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (a girl, new name TBA) from a woman who is leaving the Czech Republic and can't take her dog back with her. She's darling, and I can't WAIT to bring her home in July and show her off! =) Add another family pet to the Frequent Flyer Program! ;)FoxMeadowsFarmgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17443680009224657886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970953052653919459.post-32856691417662831202008-09-02T21:42:00.000-07:002008-09-02T21:42:00.000-07:00Beautiful Dogs!

I am a total blue merle fan as I have a blue merle cardigan corgis I show! Your Shelties are beautiful...glad you said your not breeding cuz I might have to seriously think about that:) I don't think I have ever had less than 3 dogs at a time in my house...the most was my 3 Newfies & 2 beagles! Beautiful Nigerians! I have a small herd which hopefully will be bigger this spring as I just flew in a buck from Texas in April....yeah what else does a single woman need to do with $600?? I totally laughed at your entry on fences because I am a "freak" about fence lines.

Our old girl, Bessie (11 year old Rottie) is...well, she's getting old. So sad to see her coat getting tatty when it used to just sparkle. She may turn out to be my once-in-a-lifetime dog. (Lifetime not over so can't tell yet) We've done so much...She got her CD (first title for me--didn't go further because I didn't care for the jumping), performed tricks for nursing homes (registered therapy dog) and then helped with physical therapy for stroke victims, had a bit of a go at flyball, was the "example" dog for the puppy classes I taught at the dog club, did some herding and tried our hand at tracking. A real do-it-all gem! Very difficult to see her getting older and knowing there's not much time left.<BR/><BR/>And you do CLICKER TRAINING, too! Love clicker training! That's what I've used on Maa-Maat (the little hand-reared 4-month old Tunis ewe lamb). She took to it really quickly. Problem is, I'm pretty stumped as what to do next. She touches my hand of course, jumps up on whatever I tell her, jumps through a hoop, and she kneels down. <BR/><BR/>Anyone have any suggestions for another trick? Makes for a very, very short "Maa-Maat Show".Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853793959909472712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970953052653919459.post-22755846525080471842008-08-29T07:19:00.000-07:002008-08-29T07:19:00.000-07:00Yep twinville I can help you with that but maybe y...Yep twinville I can help you with that but maybe you should email me at minterbay@aol.com because it could get lengthy.

My neighbor has a miniature shetland sheepdog and I'm always so impressed with how well trained and intelligent she is, but also kind with children and calm.<BR/><BR/>Solomon is so cute. I've never been a huge fan of Chis, but I bet Solomon would probably change that :)<BR/><BR/>I've usually had a dog most of my life growing up, just one at a time. But I don't think I could call myself dog-crazy. I appreciate dogs and enjoy having them around, but I think I lean toward more independant animals.<BR/><BR/>You'll probably think I'm nutty, but I'd take my llamas for a walk before I'd take our dog. :)<BR/><BR/>Ranchman John adopted a female GSD puppy 8 months ago, and I've never had a puppy before. What a handful. She's been to one training class and she could use a few more.<BR/>She is very sweet and loving, though, when she's not hyper and jumping on us.<BR/><BR/>Since you're a dog trainer, do you have any tips of advice on training a dog not to jump up on people and not coming when called?Laughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970953052653919459.post-69827761633974438992008-08-28T21:50:00.000-07:002008-08-28T21:50:00.000-07:00I didn't used to love dogs but I do now, we have 4...I didn't used to love dogs but I do now, we have 4 too ( 2 are Great Pyrenees and 2 are Lab mixes ) but we might be getting my brother's boston terrier/beagle mix though, my sister has the sister of the boston terrier/beagle mix male.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
