I’m really looking forward to this weekend. I’m going to be able to handle the pups more in order to get better pictures. They are very mobile and we have a 3-4 brave souls lifting themselves up versus just pushing themselves around. Or in Bobby-speak, we have actual crawlage. And if you have not noticed,...

Looking over some old images this morning I found one of Angela with Reno being coached by Dan. This was in 2003 when we lived in Iowa. It was a very cold day in December during practice with our Schutzhund club. Dan was from a neighboring club and he would come down to train with...

I suspect we have a potential jailbreak. Just a few days after tagging the little beasts with ribbons, three of the ribbons mysteriously FELL OFF! I think they’re trying to play tricks on me by trying to confuse us as to who is who. But it won’t work…..not because I’m smarter than the puppies but...

We began the BioSensor training with the pups yesterday. This entails handling the pups, putting them in physically different positions than they are currently used to and bringing them environmental sensations they would not normally get. So, simply, they are held head to the sky [standing], head to the ground [diving], on their back, their...

We are starting to see a distinct change in coat color. Although that will probably change over the next few days and weeks, we’ve been able to see a sable/fawn or at least lighter coats in two, four mahogany/dark coats, and two gray colored coats. Not sure how the gray will end up – its...

I just let Tammy out to do her business. I left the gate from the deck to the yard open and the door to the dog room open so she could let herself in. I then headed off to the garage to prepare her a morning meal.Being a smart dog who rules the house, she...

Finally got a decent night’s sleep. Tammy is fine this am and so are the pups. I’m enjoying the sounds of puppyhood as they suckle, move around and jockey for the best position. Some of the pups are content to just sleep while the others are feeding away. I’m going to have to watch that...

So, the eagle has landed. Actually 8 eagles. 6 girls and 2 boys. All active, healthy appearing and very vocal. Mewing, grunting, and little yips can be heard from the brood. Tammy is doing well – she looks great and seems to be very relaxed. We’ve been able to get her to leave the pups...
