And into winter we go...
Winter in Las Vegas actually means we can get a lot more training done with our dogs. It's cooler so we have longer and more frequent training sessions. With the cold though I find myself needing to do something so I don't freeze while other dogs are being worked. Also, the cloud cover usually assists with the fact I am too cheap to buy a polarized lens cap for my 24-70. hehe So, more photos!
Sunday we had just the three malinois out. There was an agility show this weekend and many of our training friends are dual sport people and they were running their dogs elsewhere.   I love this happy dog.  We're working heavily with him on pulling back off the sleeve and calming down. The problem, like in many dogs like him, is with the excess jumping and speed he's molesting the sleeve and with too much leeway he'll bite it. The dog will always be over exuberant and spastic but every dog can learn in theory so we're hoping. lol  He lives for this stuff  Finally, it paid off  Working for Denis, my boyfriend    more coming...

Sloany ponys turn
 She may be small but she's angry. LOL  Bunny ears, they're pretty amazing.  Coming off 2 weeks crate rest after running through a glass patio door and still not looking too bad. This dog was genetically.  Relief!  In other news, yesterday we worked on our dumbbell retrieves. Part of the schutzhund 1 obedience routine. The dog must retrieve the wooden dumbbell on the flat, over a meter jump and over the Aframe at full height. This is not full height yet. Quarrel

At full height this is almost vertical. Schutzhund did away with the wall and started using a steep A frame years ago for the safety of the dogs hips and elbows. Mondio still uses a wall.
 Learning to sit and wait while you throw it can be very difficult for high drive dogs.  Adding higher value for Sloan by playing light tug with it. He's a brave guy, you can easily lose fingers this way.  Or would Sloan, your face. LOL  Sloan working on the flat. She'll retrieve it but she hates it. Luckily we don't need a force on either of our dogs yet but they each hold their own complications. Sloan doesn't like the wood and takes it as a bargain and Backup likes anything too much and holding the dumbbell in too high of value can have a dog that grabs it and zooms off or doesn't give when asked in a front finishing position. So, we work and work.  Sloan     Unfortunately no photos of B in obedience this time. Thanks for looking!
