Agility Laughs: June 2009
http://agilitylaughs.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 26, 2009. I am hoping Venus' new found speed is confidence and not caused by hormones. I think Clover is coming in season and Venus might be reacting to that. Here's some changes Venus and I are working on. I am talking less while running her. In a straight line I am expecting her to take the obstacles in front of her unless I say otherwise. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. A Whole New Venus! Ok so I have been taking some lessons with Lynne Stephens and Karen Mielke at Dog Logic. AD- Need 1 gamblers Q.

Agility Laughs: January 2010
http://agilitylaughs.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 22, 2010. The trial had a huge entry, they ended up adding a 3rd ring and judge. First thing that happened at the trial was Venus had to get measured. 21.5" :( After months off of agility she is jumping 26", 5 runs a day, for her first trial since July! What was I thinking lol. With only one bar on the warm up jump she kept going under it. I finally worked her at 22", then 24", then 26". It finally clicked with her that she was jumping 26". Q/2nd- Nice easy pairs run. Q/1st- Yay snooker Q.

Agility Laughs: May 2009
http://agilitylaughs.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 25, 2009. So we finally went for it, entered our first USDAA trial. It is 2 months since Venus was last in season which usually means she is hormonal and super velcro dog right now. Because of that I didn't enter pairs (didn't want to cost someone else a Q) and gamblers (no going to upset the velcro dog). My plan was blown away when I didn't have velco dog and instead I had a kinda distance dog, distance for Venus anyways. Anyways the outcome for this weekend:. PI Standard- Q 3rd place.

Vitamin E (If available). If your dog carefully chews up any bones you give him, you may give him a turkey neck bone.

Cheetah's Dog Training Blog: Uncivilized Behavior - Who's Really the Animal Here?
http://cheetahswift.blogspot.com/2007/11/uncivilized-behavior-whos-really-animal.html
Cheetah's Dog Training Blog. My training blog for all things dog. Thursday, November 1, 2007. Uncivilized Behavior - Who's Really the Animal Here? The most recent instance of uncivilized behavior toward dogs has been toward my own dogs, which finally inspired this article. A person close to me has lately been acting unpredictably toward my dogs, which finally made me uncomfortable enough to let them know - probably not in the best way - by snapping at them, "Don't DO that! I sure would be! So I am writin...

Agility Laughs: Updates
http://agilitylaughs.blogspot.com/2010/02/updates.html
Friday, February 19, 2010. Venus and I have been working on the 2x2 weave method and so far so good. We are taking it slow to make sure she understands the entry and collection. Really this is the most important part for her since she knows how to weave once she's in them. Her problems are getting in the correct spot and then collecting to hit the next poles.

Cheetah's Dog Training Blog: Early Prevention of Bad Behaviors
http://cheetahswift.blogspot.com/2007/07/early-prevention-of-bad-behaviors.html
Cheetah's Dog Training Blog. My training blog for all things dog. Monday, July 30, 2007. Early Prevention of Bad Behaviors. There are several different dog behaviors that are considered "rude" in the human world that can be prevented easily at an early age. I just wanted to share some methods that I have used. Teaching the dog not to jump up can take weeks to months from puppyhood if you are consistent. Crating is a great way to prevent your dog from getting into things he shouldn't when you're not aroun...
