A bit of training!

We haven't posted for a while because we've not been able to do too much! 

We went dog training on Monday which was good. Millie did lol the exercises really well and showed all the other dogs how it's done!

Today we've done some filming for the next Happy Dog Tricks Award. Millie can do all the tricks, it just when someone can film it for us! We've only got one more to go so hopefully that can be sent off soon and we'll get level 3!

Not done too much!

We haven't done very much today! We did a little bit of training this morning, but nothing other than that! The normal 3 walks, 1 1/2 of them being wet! Millie's been quite happy to have a rest and a good sleep on the sofa!

Dog Training

This evening was dog training again! Millie was very good and did all the exercises really well! I had to leave her sitting, then lying down in a circle of dogs while I walked around the circle. We did an A-Recall where Millie showed everyone how it was done, and she did the same with the stop the dog, and was perfect! All the dogs did the sit stay well, however,mother down stay was another story! I went outside with two other people for the out of sight stays. Within a few seconds, one of the dogs was at the door! This made lots of the other dogs get up (I was watching through the window)! It was bedlam in there and I finally went in and stood inside the door for the rest of the exercise and Millie stayed there the whole time! She was a really good girl!

Filming Tricks!

Today Millie and I have done lots of training! This morning I set up a jump and got Millie to fetch her toy over the jump, it's very sweet! I also sent her to her mark over the jump and taught her to go left and right between two marks. 

Later this morning we went outside and did some training on the barrel, skateboard and some other tricks. Millie was good and she got a little audience!

This afternoon, we went to the doctors with the scooter, skateboard and barrel as I didn't get a very good video earlier! Again, Millie was very good and I got a video in the end!

Happy Dog Tricks Level 2

Today we passed Level 2 of the Happy Dog Tricks awards! We passed with Magician level again too! We had to redo the 'go to mat' as I didn't realise Millie had to lay down and 'target chin' so it was easier to see! Millie did both of them again and we passed!



Also, as its rememberance day,

Dog Training!

This evening was our first time back dog training for a few weeks as we couldn't go last week because Millie was scared of the fireworks. 

We didn't do many exercises as there were lots in the class but Millie was good!

She was really happy as she got to see her best friend, Ruby, again who she hasn't seen for ages!

Training and a Sleepy Millie!

Today we did a bit more filming for Level 2 of the HDT awards!


Millie's also had some herbal tablets to calm her down with the fireworks as she's so terrified of them. I think it must be some sort of a sleeping potion as she didn't even lift her head up when we ate dinner! That's unheard of!
