SHELLEY & BREN

Are we still on for training at Zeps next Saturday then?

im definately up for it...but the OH cant guarantee that he will be here every saturday, so ive checked the buses for egginton, and they run in time, all i have to do now is check with the bus company that the bus times i want to use arent going to be packed and if fred will be able to get on

if all is okay then yes we shall be there

I do hope so. I'm really looking forward to it. It'll be much more fun with people I know

i sulked all the way home in the car when the OH said he wasnt sure of what his work commitments were this year so he couldnt say if he would be here every saturday to take me.... i was all excited knowing you and bren would be there... :2431:

My mom takes her new pup on the bus Shell and her old boy used to always go on, they charged her 50p on friday for it

Last time I joined the class halfway through & there was a woman there who had obviously been the star pupil. She didnt like it one bit when Zep started asking me & Nico to demonstrate things. It was hilarious.

Then there was another woman who said her dog couldnt work cos it was too windy & another one who argued with everything Zep said. I dont know how he kept his cool with her tbh.

i worry incase the bus is packed though sange.... ... especially on a saturday....

aww now im ultra excited bev... i really need to take fred....ive managed everything with him except the agression/dominance with other dogs i just cant master it 100%

Cant you get him a coat and a wig Shell, disguise him as a old lady

yes he could pass as one, hes just as grumbly :2431:

Only just noticed this thread was just going to post a similar one

I will miss the first Saturday because i can only take Mickey and he is booked in with Zep for the week starting on the 9th I think he wants to work on him for the week before letting him join the rest of the group probably doesnt want him scaring everyone off with his anti social behaviour
OH will be at work most of the saturdays so cant take both dogs

So i will hopefully see you both on the 14th
I will be the small person with the large unruly dog
I was going to do half the course with Keira but Zep says to concentrate on Mickey as he needs the training more
Im looking forward to it
Zep puts him straight before we start the classes He can be a right monster when he starts playing up

Hope Zep does the work Bren

and me Sandra He has to learn not to growl and lunge at other dogs
Its so annoying because when off lead he will just run up to other animals and wants to play He does like to play roughly tho he loves barging Keira sideways he thinks he is an american footballer
Keira has to kick his butt to stop him when he gets too rough she takes so much then puts him straight

He sounds just like Misty don't know if it would be a good thing or a bad thing if those two got together

:2431: ... ive checked taxis, and they will take big dogs like fred... just got to find the number for the egginton bus to make sure freds allowed on there too... then i will tell the OH tomorrow that were going training.... then i suppose i better ring zep and see if theres any room :2431: oh and im going to check with a freind to see if they can take me when the OH cant.... im bloomin determined hes going to get this dog agression/dominance knocked out of him

Snap Shelley Thats how i feel about Mickey

He is such a nice dog other than the aggression towards other dogs while on lead

its frustrating isnt it bren ......

and embarrassing

absolutely .... hes absolutely perfect in every other way apart from passing other dogs....although the past two days have been okay.... ive prob jinxed myself now lol...i still dont let him offlead with dogs i dont know though :nhy:

Will be interesting to see what happens when they meet

They will probably both be really well behaved and Zep will think we exaggerate wishful thinking

i think i will say hello a good few feet away ...

fred always behaves with zep.... so i know the problem is me :2431: ....

Mickey never behaves Not even for Zep Thats not exactly true he does to an extent then reverts back to Mickey the monster every so often He has a short attention span The first time we went to the training he was brilliant and would do his sit stays for 2 minutes then the week after he was all over the place wouldnt listen or concentrate just wanted to run around and was more interested in Mo's group and flexing his muscles around the other dogs
The other big problem i have with him at training is keeping his bloody nose off the ground all he wants to do is sniff the grass it takes all my strength to keep his head up

thats bloody annoying when they do that.... sniffing the grass

so how does it all work then.... whats zeps group and whats mo's group?

When we have been Mo has the beginners by this i mean puppies and Zep has the bigger dogs and the ones who have already had some training

Zep is always taking Mickey off me when he plays up If Fred plays up aswell he will have a choice

:2431: .... im soooooo looking forward to it.... gonna ring zep tomorrow...im sure he will fit us in

Yes i am aswell Im sure he will have a space for you and Fred

Ask him if he is ooking forward to Mental Mickeys return
