Dogs. Dawgs. Other critters. Life as Oliver Wendell Douglas. Live heirlooms, both flora and fauna. Self-sufficiency. Suffering not a fool to live. Land stewardship. Turnip trucks, and those who have not fallen therefrom. Training things. Growing things. Search and rescue. What is this bug and what is it doing under my desk light?
Embracing the reality that Nature Bats Last.
Love your blog! I used your paper plate recall exercise from last month in my basic obedience class this week. The dogs and owners loved it! Thanks for the great instructions and photos. My ES Ripley says "Hi".
As cool as this exercise is when done at home, there really is nothing to compare with the WOW factor when you have ten or so students and their dogs -- in a basic class -- all in a row doing the PP recalls.

So - do the English Shitheads smack Sophia down and hold her while the duck beats the qwap out of her?
ReplyDeleteThere was an incident with the turkeys a few days ago.
ReplyDeleteI had to send Rosie out to save Sophia when they got her cornered on the porch. They knew perfectly well what they were doing.
It's inconceivable that the poultry would bully any of the ES -- not even Cole, who is <30 pounds.
