Multipurpose Cavaliers!

Our Cavaliers aren't just increadibly cute, they have brains too. Today Stina's been training agility with both of them. They're very different in temperament, Idefix is a bit scared of hights so he doesn't like some of the balance obstacles, while as Maya doesn't seem to think at all, she just runs as fast as she can! Stina has to be very fast and handle her carefully, otherwise she makes her own decisions. But I believe that she can be a real star with some more practise. Idefix, on the other hand, prefers obedience training and can perform very well. We hope for that this weekend, as they're going to compete both on Friday and on Sunday. Keep your fingers crossed for them!

Tonight I've been out tracking with Melvin and Visa. They both did really well. Melvin nearly made me fall, I had put some meatballs in his track to make him work more carefully. He got very excited when he found the first one and ran in two circles around me before he continued. As he was in a 10 m rope, this could have ended in a small catastrophe. But - I'm still alive! ;)

Sad news

I have sad news. Due to different reasons, Visa hasn't been mated and thus, there'll be no puppies from her this time. Naturally, I'm a bit disappointed. Even though this means that we can work and compete for another 6 months or so, I was looking forward to have puppies in the house again. And the kids are really disappointed, especially the two youngest ones. But I have some other puppy plans, I'll let you know as soon as I've figured it all out.

To stop thinking about puppies, we did some obedience training today and Visa just loved it. So I hope to be able to start in class 2 again within a couple of weeks. Melvin had some training too and found it great fun. Though we need a lot of practice before it's time for a competition. A lot!

Tutan isn't quite well and, as always, I'm a bit worried. But I hope she may be cured with just some antibiotics this time.

Changed plans!

I've spent the last two days looking for a new male for Visa. Due to health issues, there'll be no litter with the chocolate male as I've written on my puppy page. I'll give you more information about my plans later. Right now I'm just very tired...
