Following the last few weeks that the dogs have gone on obedience strike we are now "TheUnSaintlySa intClan". ;) Not only that my last user name didn't include Nicholas....we can't leave him out!!!LOL

How funny. I love that new name. And obedience strike? I think they may have sent that message to my girl. Gracie's doing the same thing and I never thought I'd see the day that she becomes the TOOT that she is right now. Correction. CERTIFIED TOOT!!!

HAHAHAHAA!! That's too funny! Koby's been a PITA too I wonder what's up with that?!?!

Nope guys...I have figured it out! Somehow my clan has gotten all of your guys manners! I am having another day of serene quiet and relaxation!!! Everyone is listening to every word I say and not once have I had to use the word "no"!!! I am sure that they will give the good manners back soon, but I am enjoying them while they last... ;D!

Well, Bella's a couple weeks shy of 6 months, and until the last week or so, I didn't realize how stubborn she could be. At ~70 pounds, it's not that easy to "make" her go outside, or come in, or go in her crate, or whatever she decides she doesn't want to do! Talk about a little sh**! Total adolescent testing... anyway, I can relate to the "unsaintle saint". LOL ;)

It could be the full moon,but I'm siding toward the cooler weather,it seems to give them all a mind of their own.Or so they think.
But over all I can't complain too much.
Falkor starts obedience class on Sunday,and that should be real interesting.I have this week decided to try another in my many training collars to get a bit more control of him.He is a lot stronger that I expected,at probably around 75 lbs.and a crazy kanagroo when he wants to be.
I pulled out of my old bag a pinch collar that I got many years ago for my Rotti Bear,only used it once and never again.Bear was such a touchy feely guy that I didn't need much to get his attention.Very sensitive.
Falkor is just the opposite,and you practicaly have to clobber him over the head to get his attention.So I tried it at the park yesterday and it was like putting power sterring on him.It was wonderful.
So I guess I will use it until he understands just what *heel* means and then go to a martingale.
Some how with 10 month olds and a strong self esteem,and confidence no matter how much they may want to please you,they can't help trying to please themselves. :P
Tricia and the fur kids

Well, I think Zoey and Dolly stole some of those manners too! They are being unreasonably good all the time now! But I won't be fooled. I'm just waiting for them to do something really bad. :o
