Wow, those are nice collars! Pretty dogs too!

She sure does look like she is a sun sponge!

Very interesting - I don't think anybody has one in the Uk. It sounds as though they are a specialist dog and need careful rearing.

My mother cut out that picture and brought it to me. He is a pretty one, isn't he? I'm partial to the black and whites.

My new boy, Will, is also 3, and it's taken us (me and him) a little while to figure out the routine. I think he used to go out on a tie-out or something. Curie has always done her business on walks, but he thought this was a bit ridiculous. Walks were for squirrel chasing and hydrant checking! But a few months into it, he seems to have gone along with the plan.

I guess my advice would be to figure out what works for you and them. There is no rule that says they have to pee in one spot in the yard or that they have to only pee on walks or that they have to wear coats or not wear coats or wear funny hats. 🙂

What works for YOU?

(The rain is a drag – I just end up standing out there in the rain with them saying mean things in a nice voice until they get it over with.)

Joey gave his first 'Baroooooo' today when I didn't give him as much attention as he wanted after I came home. I was surprised and thrilled! It was so fun to hear it since most of the time he is quiet unless growling when someone disturbs him while he is sleeping. Is there a difference between a baroo and a yodel? Once before when I didn't give him adequate attention, he batted my leg to let me know, Hey I'm down here waiting for more attention!

Great looking family.

Oh, neat! Tell us how it goes!

Yay! congrats…that is so important, and so wonderful when it happens so easily 🙂

my dog plop herself down when she sees another dog or person. I believe she does this in play.

Retry!
