Cathy, Fergie and Little Lucy Welcome you to our Page!

I'm happy for fall. Fergie and Lucy are back to school and I love it. Lucy started "pre-novice" and she has just tons to learn. #1 being self-control. She just hasn't learned how to move her body yet. She really looks like a crazy cartoon character. Fergie started Novice and doing great. This is the class she should be in. Lesson to learn if you don't like a class you take, do it and finish it for practice and move on. Go to more classes and you'll find a place you like. This teacher realized… Continue

As most of you know, I walk both my GIRLS a lot on a county trail by me -- both always off leash. It's a 1 1/2 mile stretch with no roads to worry about. Anyway today they had the most self-control ever!

Picture this --

3 gorgeous fit men came jogging past for there morning run. I said "girls - stay". They sat and watched as these three young men ran on there way. NOW I HAD A MUCH HARDER TIME but my heart wouldn't have taken the run. LOL-LOL.

Also, a lady passed with two… Continue

No luck. Yep Fergie did do great but I didn't want her to. Today our big lesson was getting her to come to you when you're out of site. I personally think 8 wk old pups will do that most of the time. We did do a little bit of agility work (10 minutes) which she hadn't done and was somewhat fun but I can't follow through with that because she wouldn't be able to compete for quite a few years (She's a dood and not fixed) so I'm not interested in that either. OH well, I'm going to buy that Dog… Continue

I took Fergie to a new teacher - one who has come highly recommended from numerous people. Anyway, we went for our first intermediate obedience class. I told her that she had already passed "pre-novice" classes, and has passed both her CGC and her TDI tests. I want to teach her some fun stuff that we could use in our Therapy visits.

Our first class we started out with sit. We moved on to stay - stay for 30 seconds. I told her she'd stay long enough for me to drink a couple of beers -… Continue

Now I was out in the yard trying to fix my plants. When what do I see - Fergie running through the yard with a squirrel in her mouth. OMG! that could be bad I think - squirrels are tough and mean. Fergie is just a sweetie. Thank god for the training I've done with her. I immediately yelled "leave it" and she dropped it immediately and came to me. As the squirrel ran away I could see the tip of its tail hanging by a thread. I think that squirrel won't visit this yard anymore.
