They passed

:san23: Keira and Mickey both passed their bronze awards :san23:

It was a close call with Mickey because before the test he was being a right little sod playing up showing off barking at the younger puppies and generally being a pain in the arse

When i had to let him offlead for the recall he headed straight across the field towards the other group : :san12: I thought he was gonna cause havoc but he just went over for a nosey then came back when i called him :san12:

Awwww how fantastic is that? Well done Bren and doggies

:san12: :san12: :san12: :san12:

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

is there no classes in august then hun

:nhy: Dont think so Shelley Zep said next classes will be on his website

Havent looked yet but im sure he said starts in September

Suppose they have to have a break sometime :xed:

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

im so gutted, the OH has 3 weeks off this month and we were geared up for a couple of lessons a week....

Double check by emailing them just incase ive got it wrong

Told Zep about your pic of the cat and Fred together sleeping You should email them that aswell :2445: Show him how well Fred is doing with the cat

lol.... i did do hun :2431: ... he was very impressed.... fred rarely bothers with the cat anymore.. :nhy: .... were working on the ones in the street now lol

Im gonna get him to work on Mickeys obsession with the cat when he is there in October

im amazed at fred hun.... ive been very vigilant though, and i still keep an eye on him... the other day i went out and left nicole in bed... the dog and cat had free run of the house.... very trusting i know... nicole said when she came downstairs they were on the same sofa asleep....

Im praying Mickey will improve He still goes mental when he sees the cat Barking and whining and basically trying to rip the door down

Thing is he stops in his tracks if the cat doesnt move He is only interested in the chase He will sit in the kitchen just watching and wagging his tail while the cat is on the worksurface eating but as soon as she looks like she is gonna jump down he is ready to pounce

The cat just looks at him as if to say You dont scare me and i dont give a shit Im hoping this means she can sense he isnt really aggressive
Its the same with other dogs He sounds like he is gonna rip them apart but when he had the chance to pounce on Thursday when he was offlead he wanted to play Hes a little boy in a big boys body Im sure he thinks he is Kalas age the way he acts sometimes

bless him, he sounds very similar to fred ... fred was okay so long as the cat didnt make a move, otherwise he was poised and ready like a panther waiting to pounce lol.... hes more chilled now... i still havent checked him with other dogs off lead yet, were still perfecting the onlead dog meets lol....

you'll get there hun, we all do in the end

Fred and Mickey must have the same genes
somewhere down the line must have been a cat hater

btw i found out Mickeys mum is a long hair and Shirley does owns her

well done Brena :love: keira :love: mickey :love:

soo deserved Bren you've worked really hard :love:

what did fred do as we were heading to bed last night...... he pounced on the cat bloody animal... he has to prove me wrong

How did I miss this :san41:


One of the most exciting threads in training and I missed it :san41:




Bren, all that concern for nothing hun, you should be very proud of yourself, you obviously have to great dogs there, that you have worked very hard with hun, good for you :san18: :san18: :san18: :san18: :san18: :san18:
