Resting Week

After the tiring weekend at UPM, I finally got a week off from training. Now I could enjoy strolling and sunbathing at the garden all alone undisturbed.



By the way, due to my good behaviour and reliable response during the Dogathon, I earned myself a switch of kibble's brand to Blackwood 3000 instead of the boring Eukanuba Lamb & Rice.

Tried to do weaving with legs. But everytime I have a treat in my hand, Fei will automatically SIT.

We did do a couple of good ones and will try again tomorrow.

yes, how do you get the dropshots video to be that size? Mine are tiny thumnail ones...

Pacco,
good to see you resting, mate! Envious of the big garden you have there...

Fei,
did u try to lure her to go under ur legs?
if she alwiz come to an automatic sit, better start off by training her to follow ur hands.
for example,
when she's sitting infront of u, hold a treat of d right hand and wave it, make her move to ur hand. if Fei is convenient n reliable of following ur hand. then it will make weave training easier.

for d video. i used www.dropshots.com
after u upload d video, click 'blog' and copy the entire 1st html code.

yes I tried to lure her to go under my leg using a treat. But with food and treats, she will auto sit and wait for OKAY to eat.
OH! Okay I will try to make her follow my hand and then try the weaving again.
But I think if I wave the treat in front of her, she will just SIT...
I'll give it a shot anyhow.
Oh when can we be like Pacco our role model?

Thanks for the blog tip. Will try it again.

Fei is definately a very obedient dog. as for pacco, when i hold d treat, she'll start jumping n pushing here n there to get it.

if that method cannot work for fei, mayb u shld try other option.

what about putting her onleash. walk/jog a couple of steps wit ur hand holding d treat infront of her. when she move forward to your hand, then u'd succeed!

Just curious, how much does Pacco weigh? Fei is about 15 kilos and now 10 months.

Is Pacco barky at all? Does she bark at strangers approaching your home? Fei started barking a bit and seeing that we live in a flat, that is not very nice with the neighbours.

Tried to put up a dropshot video but i cant get it to work.
I did what you said, click BLOG and then copy the HTML of the first line,
I could get a thumbnail up but not the size like your video on your page...

We are so envious that Pacco has such a spacious garden to roam around in! SO lucky.

did u use dropshots.com??
coz i'm not sure about d size offer by other host.

pacco weight app 14kg few months ago, whereby her vet said she's underweight. currently trying to feed her slightly more, but seems like still d same...

Urban Smoothie Read said...

if u really did use dropshots...then d probably might coz by ur website host...they probably got not enuf size or dun allowed that size...

e said...

oh!! yeah maybe its my host. :(
Pacco is slim and trim ! Maybe its because of all that training she does.

Urban Smoothie Read said...
