Progress with Collies!

This evening when Millie and I were out on our walk, we met Lucky, the Collie. Millie's been a lot better with him recently. I kept Millie back so I could say hello to Lucky and then Millie wanted to see him.

They both sniffed each other, it was head on contact and Millie was brilliant and happy so see him! I'm so pleased we're making progress and hopefully some when in the near future Millie and Lucky will be able to run around and play together as friends!

Outside Dog Training!

Dog training was outside tonight for the first time this year! We went earlier so we could go before it got dark.

Millie was very good and did the heelwork very well. We did the stays twice, once in sight and once out of sight, both of which Millie was perfect. We also had to do a recall and the stop. Millie was running so fast it was hard for her to stop but she knew what she was meant to do and she did manage it!

During the 'stays'!

 
 
Millie really enjoyed herself! It was nice to be doing it outside again!
 
Before we left the sun started to set, the sky was a lovely colour!

Millie's Active Day!

Millie's had a really active day today! It started with going for our normal walk. 

We then came home and Millie had a lovely play in the garden with her toys and the stick she brought home yesterday. 




We then dos some training! Millie was on the barrel, scooter and skateboard, along with some other tricks! A friend came to take photos of her and as usual, she was more than willing to pose!

At midday we went to the tennis field. We went there the short way as it was quite warm. Millie really enjoyed running around there!



We came home and she had a little sleep. She was soon ready to go again and she did some jumping and agility weaves in the garden. We then went for our evening walk. 

Finally, we went dog training. Millie was clearly tired but she was still very good!

A Nice Run and Lots of Training! - Black and White Sunday

We went for our normal walk this morning and then decided that because the weather was nice we would go to the green so Millie could have a run. She had a lovely time chasing sticks around!


 
 
 
 
 
Since we've been back, we've also done lots of training! Millie's been stacking hoops and cups, standing on her back legs, doing spins and twists, all sorts really!
 
 
We practised her new trick some more and got it filmed! Here it is!

Millie's a Physicist! - Sepia Saturday

This morning, we went on the nice long walk that integrates the tennis field, so Millie had a nice run!

However, the main thing that happened today is that Millie learnt some physics! I've got my exams next month and Millie's been helping me learn definitions! She's such a clever girl!

 
 
 
 
Here's what she did! Make sure you've got your sound turned on so you can hear what I'm saying!

Dog Training

Tonight Millie and I went dog training. As usual, it was good fun!

We did some different things tonight. We started by doing some recalls between the other dogs. 

We then did some weaving in and out of cones and running through a tunnel. All the dogs loved that and none of them got stuck in the tunnel this time!

The dogs had to find a treat under a flower pot. Millie very quickly found the treat, but instead of tipping the flower pot over, went for the pushing it around the floor approach!

We did send aways with a cone behind the mat. Millie went to sniff a bin to start with, but quickly came back and laid on her mark!

We finished with some stays. Millie was perfect as usual! The handlers ended up hiding behind the curtains for the out of sight stay, the dogs must think we're mad!

The Liebster Award!

We would like to say a huge thank you to Earl, Ethel and their mum at Earls World for passing on the Liebster Award to us! We love reading their blog so you should definitely take a look at it!


 
 
 
As with any award, there are some rules! We're going to answer these questions and pass the award on to 5 other fantastic blogs!
 
 

1. What is your ultimate vision for your blog, and has it changed since you started?

Our blog was originally started so I could keep track of all the things Millie has done. However, we now have more viewers and like taking part in blog hops! We love all the comments we get from people and really enjoy doing the blog!


2. Do you have a favourite treat, if so, what?

Definitely! Millie's favourite everyday treats are gravy bones, she loves them! If we're out at an event or doing something special, Millie always has Babybels! She adores them and will do anything for them!


3. Are you a neat freak, or slightly cluttered?

I always like everything in place! It annoys me when things aren't where they belong so I'm a neat freak!


So there are the questions answered! Now to pass the award on to 5 other blogs! This is very difficult, as everyone's blogs are brilliant, but I'm going to give the award to:

Kobe and the City
Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them
Golden Daily Scoop
Hawkeye Brown Dog
K9s Over Coffee

Congratulations to you all and thanks again to everyone at Earls World for giving us the award!

Millie's very proud!

 
 
Thanks to everyone who's been watching BGT! Millie wasn't on it last night but keep watching and you'll see her!
 
 
 
 

 
Thanks to hosts Dachshund Nola and Sugar the Golden Retriever for the Black and White Sunday blog hop!

Remember... and some agility too! - Sepia Saturday

Millie's having a lazy day today, recovering from her holiday!

She's also been round delivering notes about later!

Remember to watch BGT on ITV at 8pm tonight! I hear there's a scooter riding dog called Millie on it!

 

I've also just done some agility with Millie and Joe! They both loved it!
