I haven't checked in here in too long, but wanted to share some really cool photos and experience! Patton and I competed last friday to qualify for the freestyle disc portion of the Purina Pro Plan Incredible Dog Challenge at Purina farms. It is an annual event of dock diving, fetch it...

Newest member of the pack- 6 mo old female cattle Jack. Named her Sushi. I've had her for about a week and a half. she was a rehome, originally from Petland :-/ I took her as a foster with the intent to keep only if she liked disc- she got introduced to disc the day I picked her up, and she...

That actually includes me! Nothing spectacular- it's a phone picture. But I was happy to finally have a photo with all three boys. :) This was taken after a demo that all three boys performed in with me this morning- it was Patton and Pilot's first time doing demo work and they rocked it...

Wanted to share some photos that the owner of Patton's sire took of us this weekend! We competed in UpDog Freestyle at the UKC premier - all one division, against two men (with 5 different dogs, total). One regularly competes in pro division freestyle with his crew, and the other has been doing...

My newest foster. A coworker told me she had a "friend" who was a "breeder" and had a puppy returned at 7 mos for some behavioral issues. I gave him some advice, but without seeing the problems first hand I couldn't do much. He asked if I would just take him and fix him and find him a good place...

Patton had a good day catching plastic, and I had a good day throwing it. These are his goods. Well, he's a little young for the beer steins, but I think I can help him out there. ;) Untitled by DJetzel, on Flickr

Pilot made it to PAWS With a Cause's Facebook page yesterday, and to Hero Disc USA's Facebook page today. My friend took this photo over the weekend. I'm so in love with this boy. He will be 7 months this weekend.

Anyone else going/competing? I meet new people every year and I love it, it's such a great event! UpDog Challenge will be there this year again, so we are doing a TON of disc on Saturday and Sunday to qualify for worlds in 2016, Rally/Dock Diving/Lure Coursing for some legs and titles on...

Just wanted to share a little pupdate on Pilot and some pictures/vids. He's been a great puppy, we're having a lot of fun. We've traveled to Milwaukee and stayed in a house with 10 dogs, we've traveled to St. Louis and stayed in a house with 12 dogs, he's competed in a disc match, comes to...

We went to Purina Farms for an UpDog Challenge competition over the weekend and I wanted to share some videos and pictures. This was Patton's 5th disc competition and his first time competing indoors, or in an agility game. Recon has been to a couple more and a few seminars. Pilot's longest trip...

K, I need help. I have a chain eye doctor that I don't trust all that much and don't have any real knowledge about contacts. But, I need to find some new ones, because I'm out of whatever brand it was my doctor gave me with my exam. I want something I don't have to take out at night if...

Wanted to introduce Pilot, with some pictures! He's half Golden Retriever, half Labrador Retriever. He is a SDiT from an organization that places puppies in "raiser" homes to do most of the public access training. When he's 14-18 months, he will go back to the headquarters to be task trained...

Finally got some good shots of Lexi, the newest foster. I have been harassed on facebook for them, so with the morning off, I figured it was a good time. (ahem, these are for you, Shaylee!) Lexi is a 2 y/o Pit x Sighthouind mix from a shelter in Yonkers, NY. She was originally pulled as...

I did a little shoot about a week ago for the rescue that I volunteer/foster for, to get some decent pictures of a dog we've taken in that is in need of some expensive surgery so that we could apply for grants. She's finally healthy from having pneumonia? I believe, so they are getting ready to...

Shameless secret Santa info thread. :p Who likes fur savers on their dogs? If you don't, why not? For those who train or play with toys, do you like using balls on a rope, or on their own? Any balls you're interested in trying? And go!

This is typically a "no-no" in dog training, so I'm wondering who does it, and with what words/functions? I've found myself having the same command for many different things, and also numerous commands for the same thing. Recon knows "back" - sometimes just "back" or sometimes "back up"...

We had a thread a few months ago about cars, but no one shared pictures! (what is wrong with you all?) So this time I want to SEE your crate/tether/storage, etc. set up in your car/van/truck for your doggie activities. And decals! Do you leave everything in there all the time, are you...

I was chastised for not sharing more. SO. Little miss "I wanna eat all your plants and roll around in the yard with amazing zoomies at 6am and not go back to sleep" got to play some Frisbee this morning. I'm sure my neighbors think I'm certifiably insane at this point. She comes off as...

C'phira is a puppy I'm raising for her breeder... She helped me clean up the house and rearrange furniture by supervising from her perch today on the sofa. C***x27;phira2 by DJetzel, on Flickr Since she was such a help I made a new collar for her. ;) C***x27;phira by DJetzel, on Flickr
