More weekend fun...

We spent another lovely few hours at Becky's field.I had to leave Shady at home as it was about 29 degrees!Amazing weather for October.
Becky and I have realised we spend less time actually training the dogs,and more time sitting around gossiping whilst enjoying watching the dogs play,and just be dogs.

I got there before Becky and let the girls out for a mooch whilst we waited.
Floozie was in no mood for a mooch!

'Mooching is boring,I'm a gonna hunt Mookie!'




lol Mookie ready for the little bitch coming in.




Incoming!Floozie is roo rooing at Mooks.




Girls in unison.




My girls running up to greet Becky and Sixx.




As you can see,Floozie and Sixx have eyes only for each other...Mookie is more pleased to see Becky :O)




Flooz and Sixx really pleased to be reunited!






We have to lock,yes lock all food stuffs,both human and canine away in a cage to keep Flooz out of it.Lockable plastic tubs are no match for her!


The field is complete with huge water tanks...very handy!













These 2 girls really are great friends :O)I've never known Flooz to lay so gently with another dog.:O)




Sixx can often be found attached to,and gnawing and chewing on either of Floozie's limbs lol.Floozie tends to just stand there and look at her like 'kid you are weird!'




'HHhhmm the front right is quite chewy!'




'Front left not bad either.'




'Come on Sixx,stop gnawing on me!'




Sixx has now met and played with my crew at her field and off lead 4 times.It was always love between Floozie and Sixx,but Sixx was a little bit wary of Mookie,and Mookie's play style....not any more!




A Mookie style hello!




No Collie puppies were hurt in the making of this photo!lol




We like to interupt their fun by doing stuff like,you know actual training occasionally!







Foofie is working on getting her beautiful physique back after 6 weeks of firstly partial rest,due to her season,then 3 more weeks not doing alot because of the mysterious lameness.







Flying frog dog!




TUG!!




Go go go !!







Sixx is just so beautiful and makes me really want a Collie puppy,if only for superficial reasons!




Sixx is really understanding her contact position these days.:)

Fathead!!!

This is Max,quite possibly the world's biggest ever SBT!!
Sadly he's also one of the world's fattest too.

'Please stroke me'




I stroked him and took a photo to get some perspective on the fathead lol.




Check out how the size of Milly compares to the post behind her.




Then compare the size of Max relative to the post!!




Look at the size of him!!

YAY Floozie's not broken!!

The test results are back,and Floozie just has big saliva glands,weird but nothing wrong with them in anyway,all my dogs seem to have something a little not normal about them!
Oh and we are 4 weeks (I think maybe 3) since she was lame,she hasn't been lame at all since and is back to normal activity,including agility which she is looking brilliant at.
When being restrained at the start line,or on a piece of equipment wanting to get to the contact position she SCREAMS!!!Like a dog chasing and about to kill a small animal!
I must get some video of her.:O)

Life's a beach.....

Haha,its not really the beach,its Hatfield Business park! I've been wanting to take some photos down there for months,its very nicely landscaped.




The 3 amigos!




Mookie posing.




Shady his coat makes him look like he's about 1 year old.I admit it,i am slightly obsessed with how his coat fell out after his neutering.
Its coming back now,its nearly there,but when I see photos like this,I realised how little coat he has these days!




Floozie,now aged 14 months.







Lots of fishies in the ponds.

A lesson in getting what you want...

I took Mookie and Shady to Becky's at the weekend.
We did a few jump grids with Shady,so interesting to see him say,'I don't understand how to make that jump at that distance'.Showing us by going around the last jump.
2 times going round,then he made it,and continued to jump nicely.:)
He had such a great time!

Shady giving Sixx a look which says 'hey girl,its my toy'.



So Sixx uses her feminine charms to get her own way lol.







'Hey,you're not that tough Shady!!'




'Hhhhhmmm,I think I'll just take that toy now,thank you very much!!'




A truce was called in the end :O)




Shady almost has his proper coat back,deep red and lots of black overlay.I've missed his lovely coat whilst it has been replaced by that horrible post neuter,dull,dry pale coat.




Sixx is starting to look more like a dog,and less like a puppy.




Mookie spent all her free time RUNNING!!!!!!!
