Sally - you are right, I clicker train my dogs these days.
It works wonders.
One has competed for years & has a title, Companion Dog Excellent.
The Mad Copper dog is the best trained pet in the west.
I have taught him high level work but don't compete anymore.
Just hate to see good mind go to waste.
Now if I could just teach them how to help in the garden...
Chita could have made a career of finding water pipes & digging trenches :)

Great about the training! How nice he used to compete. I have to keep thinking of new things to keep my little Shih Tzu learning. She loves to learn new things.

Thanks guys....

Needs mowing... been dong that all day.. just need to scurry down that path. Got about 1/3 of the nursery mowed. Derned grass was a foot tall. Gonna spend half the day raking.

Thanks, its a bit of a domestic wildflower patch for shure! That pic could be better... I am still using that pithy lil camera...maybe in a week or so I am gonna upgrade that thing. Then my server has been down and up and down with tower trouble. Quite annoying and been going on for weeks now. I do wish they would fix the prob already.. Kinda puts a delay in a backlog schedule already!. sigh!
