We're Back!

Yup, okay so we are back! Monday was a long drive home from the lower mainland, but we all survived, no worse for the wear. OhLa enjoyed her home vacation, and was raring to go when she got back here. First thing she did (after checking on the contents of the counter) was to launch herself into Heidi's face for a good wrestle interspersed with sumptuous grass eating (and there was lots after ten days of rain and no mowing!). Life is pretty good for her these days, now that she isn't being left out of the raw food yummies! All the activity and toy training and not enough nutrients left her a little thin all of a sudden. She is looking great now (her mom will be pleased she's gained another 0.5lb since we arrived home this week) and not so much like a little mexican street dog! She wanted me to show you all the goodness....

So on Tuesday we had a rest/play day as I had to mow the lawn after work. Holy smokes, the mower quit several times, it must have rained a lot!


We did get a little practice in with the Touch it! Target plate after the lawn was (mostly) mowed.



Wednesday was return of the weave poles.... we had to go back a step and open them up a bit the first session since she'd had some time off. I've also gone to rewarding her with a tupperware container of high value treats instead of the toy. Hoping to keep weight on the little maniac so she is getting cheese, hotdogs, and rollover as reward instead of the toy.




Thursday we went up to the farm for a good run and some practice in the tunnels, I kinda thought we better get on that one! She was pretty distracted, zipping all over the place and randomly taking the tunnel at will. Her first trial should be interesting....!! :) Friday we did more weave practice and a small jump grid, and Sat/Sun have been swim and run days. Too hot for training, but great for swimming! I keep forgetting the camera when I take them out, she is a strong swimmer and can outdo all of my guys for the toy unless they get a head start!
