  • Today we were at the racetrack. BF took some pics of Tillo's finish:

    And as usual… not letting go afterwards..

  • I love the intensity of his gaze. He seems to enjoy the finish though!

  • I always show my hubby the pictures of Mirtillo. I told him today, like I told you Janneke, that if I lived in Holland instead of Canada I would have to stop myself from stealing him. Hubby asked, and I don't think I know, how old is Tillo? He is in incredible looking shape, no doubt because you and your BF are very active with him. Once again, thanks for sharing the pictures, and make sure to tell Tillo that he has international fans!

  • I think of Mirtillo as a fine athlete. He is well muscled and fit, and that shows in how he carries himself. He is not just a pretty face, but an excellent example of the breeds physical abilities.
    And a great looking sweet boy too!

  • Wonderful intensity…great pictures..

  • Brilliant pics

  • Really super - he is a great boy!

  • Thats awesome, I wish we had places where we could do that here !!!!!

    Sorry for my late respons.. I had exams and forgot about your question..
    Tillo is almost three, still a puppy ;) And if you would live in the Netherlands, I would drop Tillo at your place whenever I would need a babysitter. :p

    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    @elbrant Yes, she's good an patient sometimes, I've been taking pics of her from day 1 so she's used to it, I'm allowed a couple of mins and no more though.

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.
