In between cleaning the house to prepare for Thanksgiving dinner with my son's and their lovely ladies, I'm trying to do some training with the puppies. Last evening, believe it or not, I had all four obedient little cuties lying down on a mate and they did a down/stay for 3 minutes. Unfortunately it is very difficult to keep tossing treats as rewards for the requested behaviour and fetch camera at the same time. This evening I'll try to come to the training prepared with both loaded goody bag of treats and digital camera.
In the meantime if you're aching for some puppy breath, you can see updated photos at Robin Australian Shepherds on the Kokopelli page at this link (just copy and past or go to my list of favourite links) http://users.csolve.net/~robin/Kokopelli2008.htm Robin will continue to update that page for as long as these puppies are still available :D She owns the sire "Rider" and the pedigree is available there too. Once you're there, take a good look around. Robin has been breeding, showing and studying our beloved breed for many years and has been in the dog world for even longer having had Akitas before Aussies. If there is ever anything I don't know or can't answer when asked, I go to Robin first then to her sister Renee if it is behavioral in nature. I have been training my dogs with Renee in Toronto for the past couple of years and would not dream of socializing a puppy anywhere else. Her website too in in the list of favorites:)
Back to cleaning house!!
