Useless Updates

Yeah.
I emailed Silvia Trkman a few weeks ago but I probably won't get a reply until January...November and December are busy months for her I expect. I have been working with Flick with agility foundations...any level of drive she had when sent to me has been seemingly tripled! She is so insanely crazy awesome. Li is weaving 6 poles now but we are working on entries from any angle and also not popping out when I run past or do a cross. I am mostly working with Li trying to get him to not chase the Donkey. That uses most of our training treats/time for the day.

Once I can afford it, I'll be fencing in the dog field. Heh, I need to get my homework done so I can go to my dad's work to learn a job so that I can make money so that I can fence in the agility field. That is my incentive to do homework, like it?

Libby, my Siberian, is doing well. I am just working with her in our tiny little garage. It is a 4 car garage [2 wide and 2 1/2 deep] but with everyone's junk in there, we only have about the space of a 2 car garage. I am working on waits, tricks, and recalls...all that delicious foundational junk. I am reminded why I adore PyreSheps. Anything I have to spell out for Flick and Libby, Li does naturally with no training at all, lol.

I've not been having a good time in the past few weeks with dog people. First, the run in with my mentor. The great battle of trying to get papers from Li's breeder. Arguing with people about show vs. working on almost every website/list/forum I am a member of. Being put of by the fact that not only is Li's breeder breeding a DOUBLE MERLE but that the dog in question is only a year old. That means that there has been no OFA certifications as the minimum age for that is 2 years. If you want a PyreShep, just go to Europe, lol. Less drama. Anyway, one USA breeder I -would- recommend is Bien Aime. She loves the breed, doesn't dock/crop, and has outstanding temperaments. *cough*And she doesn't keep her dogs in bad conditions*cough*
