Sorry guys, with Thanksgiving slamming into us, and a bevvy of canine guests to entertain, I have slacked off on blogging. Many of my clients are no doubt wondering what their canines have been up to while they were here:) So first some photos of our Thanksgiving day guests.
Bella is the sweetest English Mastiff girl. She is very timid though, despite her large size.
"That's right, I really do sleep on the bed at home. Er, yeah, that's my story and I am sticking to it"
Magoo hangs out on bed with friends Leon and Boris. My poor bed, I don't know how it is able to deal with all this weight on it all of the time.
Where oh where did Tommy go?
Friends Tommy and Leon getting ready for a good nights sleep (on the bed of course).
Jake at the left is a dog who recently trained here. Jake moved to an assisted living community with his owner. It was great to see Jake on Thanksgiving, and to know he and his owner are happily comfortable in their new home. Gus is in the middle. Tommy is at the far right.
Gus Goo came here because he is a bit anxious around other dogs. He trained here awhile ago, and it's nice to visit with him on Thanksgiving.
Tommy and Buddy become fast friends. Buddy is Lola's "brother" in that he lives with her. They both spent Thanksgiving with us.
Tommy is playing with Lola here, who is the lovely black and white girl. Lola came here because she did not get along well with dogs. She is doing much better now as you can see.
Tommy arrived from Switzerland a few months ago. Switzerland has some BSL legislation, and don't know what a fine dog they are missing. His owners will be visiting him soon, and are excited to see him for Christmas.
This is a now old video of Tommy at the end of his third training week here. He was just learning about being outside without the leash and on the e-collar so he could get MUCH needed exercise. Tommy really appreciates this, and he has a lot of fun everyday with his canine companions now, especially out in the woods or chasing the ball.
Finally our most recent daycare video. This isn't the whole day, but some introductions and a woodsy walk that is typically done during the day.
NOTE: AT LEAST IN THE WOODSY PORTION THE DOGS USUALLY HAVE ON ORANGE VESTS, BUT I FORGOT WHEN I WAS VIDEOING THIS, AS I WAS ORGINALLY JUST GOING TO DO THE INTROS IN THE FRONT YARD. MY APOLOGIES TO MY DAYCARE CLIENTS, I WILL BE MORE CAREFUL, AND USUALLY AM...SORRY ABOUT THAT. LUCKILY NO ONE HERE ALLOWS HUNTERS ON THEIR PROPERTY, BUT THAT DOES NOT PROTECT US FROM SOMEONE WHO IS NOT OBEYING THE RULES.
The below picture is just to show that the dogs do indeed relax during the day once we are done with our walkies. There is snoring and everything. Hogan is not in this picture, but on Thursday he was where my dog Leon is on the couch in the middle and fast asleep.
