A busy day off with the "kids"

Today is more training for Sonko and Zara..here at home (part of the homework they have). I still have to figure out how to attach the fur (faux) to the dowel ... Busy day for me and the pups today. My day off and lots of cleaning and training to do! And no photos since they ate my new little camera. Unless I use my cell phone or video camera...humm...an idea!  ttfn

First time at Lure Course

Took Sonko to his first lesson in lure coursing! He did the alligator roll while on the lead. Then he saw all the yummy cow patties and horse patties!! So many new and yummy smells and tastes!! When we got his attention on the lure...he chased not the lure but the person jogging with it! Caught up and said HI!! Can I give you a kiss with my patty mouth! ? He loved all the people there, was more interested in them then the lure. Well the patties were his favorite. We have home work. And lots of it! Zara didn't go this time. I need to get another crate..Mine are all too small!!  Sorry no photos. I got to help out a bit before I had to leave. (have to work). ttfn

Sonko is still not so good with a leash. But getting better! Had to leave him a trail of liver brownies to get him to the car!! We went to Nick Grill for a hamburger patty for Sonko and a banana/strawberry shake for me. He gave the owners kisses and tail wags!!  His burger patty was cut up and in a paper bowl. Next we went to the bank. (Used the outside atm.) Happy Tails Barkery was next.  He met a small dog and a kid, and adults, beside the workers. Bought more liver brownies. Sonko got to try on some shirts. Clothes shopping was little disappointing, very good selection but the sizing! The mediums were way too small and the large is WAY too big. Sonko needed a size between! But I spotted the NFL shirts and  the medium fits him, for now. :o) After clothes shopping we stopped by my work to say hi. Sonko got to meet lots of people. I carried him since he is not supposed to be in there. Zara was happy to see him and of course she rolled him in the

PIO kids n Collars

Sonko and Zara are wearing collars made of soy! At least they are taking to the collars better than the all in one leads I had on them two days ago. Poor Sonko curled up in a ball and whimpered with the above leather lead/collar combo.  I tried to set him at ease by having Simba the happy boy with him..no Sonko ignored all around him, he was down and just about out. I got him to stand and watch me with Zara. Zara was like what the heck is that!? I called them from different points in the yard (with liver brownies).  Zara, "yes liver brownies!" But I'm stuck..oh, not really stuck, I can move!!! YEAH!! I can run!!! Nom nom nom, yummy liver brownie. Run some more!!! Look out! Here comes Cricket the cat! She is chasing Zara's leash! It was funny. All that going on, Sonko was stuck, least he was standing. Now alert to what was going on around him (no longer going down into depths of despair). He wanted a brownie!!!! He took a step!! I went over to him and praised
