Hi!! I was thinking about you just the other day, it had occurred to me that we hadn’t heard from you for a while. Glad to hear Jett‘s doing so well and enjoying his training; Humphrey (now 5) has calmed down a lot but still loves any sort of nose work which we try to combine with other things to keep it interesting. He‘s pretty good on the whole, the only thing we still haven‘t really mastered is managing to get him to walk nicely on the lead in busy areas without me constantly having to remind him not to pull but I‘ve resigned myself to probably never achieving perfection! But then - who wants a perfect dog???
Glad you decided to pop back in here, its been pretty quiet lately and its always nice to hear from some of the names from times ago!
Humphrey sends welcoming tail wags to Jett (he was VERY envious of that beautiful kennel that you built for Jett !! )
Hi bizzylizzy, really nice to hear from you. I can't believe Humphrey is now 5 and my Jett is 4 soon. Its mad & scary how fast time goes by.
I know exactly what you mean about the walking nicely on the lead, Jett struggles at this. He remembers for about 5 seconds then pulls like a train again
I've got to the point of thinking, its just what Jett does and i'm never going to change that.
Over the past year we have been doing our good citizen kennel club badge, he passed the bronze and has been working on the silver and also goes to the gold class (in preparation). In the gold class its all off lead, this is a big bonus as there is no pulling
The kennel took me a long time to build and I did it from scratch, I was hoping Jett could lay in there for shade or peice and quiet. I even put a lovely bed in there. I built it just before I got him and he has used it a massive ZERO times
I should of just bought one as the thing cost a small fortune in wood as well
I think he does it on purpose sometimes as he knows how much effort I put in to it
I reckon if I put an old box next to it, he would get in that
