Zastava is kind of puzzling me. She eats a cup more food than Katyusha does every day. I don’t often see her ribs, i can feel them if I press my hands in pretty good, but when I see her belly area, I think "you need a sandwich." Maybe it's just her build? She looking okay to you all? She isn't...

Free stacking, stalking, soaring and scuffling.

He really was. I forgot to mention his bravery and confidence. Even after he went blind, he never flinched for anyone to touch him or to try to go just wherever he wanted. Blindness slowed him down and made him cautious, but he'd be darned before it stopped him from exploring new spaces. He...

My Toby crossed the bridge yesterday with help from his vet. For what it was, he couldn't have passed more peacefully. He started out as my daughter's dog, but came to live with me early in his life. He went blind in 2020, after his optic nerve inflamed and stopped working. I never did train...

:congrats: you two! Amazing accomplishment! Glad to see you back here and hope to see some of Gilly's activities.

Great trip! Mine, too, seem to shift into like a "road mode" and people love them! They always represent well for the Doberman breed on the road, or, really, anywhere but home. At home they are more belligerent about approachers, until they get to know them and figure out that they are...

from our Doberman meetup yesterday

Littermates reunited

beautiful!

Annie, its a slightly better chance than if you don't. Keep plugging away girl. He will cave.

Yay! Even though mine are cropped and docked, I do love the natural look, and they are the same under the hood. She have a name yet? She's cute and beautiful. I can't wait to learn more about her and how it goes for the trial.

Gotta make that vitamin D while you can! I have a black Lab/some kind of Bully cross who loves to be in the sun exposing his belly. And for him, the hotter the day the better.

:congrats: Go Team Remy! He looks great!

Thank you! I hadn't separated the finding from the TFR in my mind, and this was extremely helpful to me to understand that these are 2 separate trainings. This makes a lot of sense and would be a nice feature no matter what kind of find she scores. I think I would like to teach one, exactly...

ok, took her outside for 2 planted searches. I know that my training consistency sucks, and i have my own routines that are hard to change or break, and I go back to default even when I want to change. That will show in these 2 videos. But hot damn this girl is on fire! I put the hide in the...

amazing video! i have clickers but have never used them in nosework training because bot UKC and CPE do not allow them at competitions. But here, the only judge will be the amount of Morels we score. Do you think that if i use it for Morels but not the oils, she would get confused? I am not...

yes, I was just thinking to get her in my back yard with outdoor things happening as they do, with me planting the hide. That's interesting about finding it quicker when planted by their human. I think there is a nosework competition for that at higher levels, but I can't remember the name of...

thanks! You have noticed a lot and also presented some good ideas! I, so far, have been using the same search command that I do with the oils, but I should probably change that, as hunting in the wild will be a very different experience for us both. I decided after this morning's runs that I...

I took her for a walk in the city last night, it was the same walk we usually do, but last night she showed nose interest in a small, untended garden type area around a business. I wondered what that was about. Looked at the tree in the garden and sure enough it was an elm tree. We will be...

I am told the rate now is $80/lb. At this time, I intend to only work her for what myself and friends will consume, but I guess one never knows, if she's good enough she might find more than that. I will be sharing my Morels now with another dobie family and have been asked by the supplier of...
