Life's good.

Life's good.... well, mine is anyways. 

See that brand new cool header above? Eva took that cool picture of what I love to do best at a trial, back on August. She and her cool camera rock.

Happiness.

So close and yet so far.

Funny how there were so many things, that used to matter, but didn't anymore. But things that didn't seems to matter last time, matters a lot now.

Before we into the agility ring today, I thought we were soo ready. They didn't even have a tyre jump in the course! Till the few minutes before our turn, happy wasn't showing any interest in the food I'm holding. She was backing off, she didn't want anything. We walk in the ring, I put her down, preparing for the worst. She stare at me, jump over a jump and she's done. She ran around the ring like, she was herding those jumps. The first round, we tried 3 times and the second, I decided could she do the end the end of part of the course? I took her and she went in the tunnel and then she ran off again. I wasn't upset or anything, I was just disappointed. But with a dog that has so many problems, you just have to get used to be disappointed. So what's the big deal? It's not the first time others seen her running off like that before. 

So, am I going home to train harder again?

The answer would more likely to be a no, she's taking a break from agility. In the mean time, we'll work on other stuffs like obedience, crate training and tricks too. Not sure if we're able to go training or maybe we should go anymore. Let's see how things work out, I don't think I got the
"don't stop believing feeling" in me. It takes time to get it back though. See everyone back in training maybe few weeks or maybe months time! Also, if anyone is interested to rent me a puppy/dog to me to do agility.. I would love to.. so umm.. ring me up? Getting able to run Russell and Cami was fun, thanks a lot for letting me run them! I was a little unsure about running Cami, she's so great and fast. and I wasn't at all ready to run someone's else dog,especially a fast and great one but thanks a lot to her human who taught me how to handle his little amazing dog :) The first impression, I ran her was like.. whoa, she's fast!
And,we also apologize for everyone to run around to chase after the crazy mad dog on the loose in the ring.

Well, thanks to eva's owners for taking this video. haha this is basically, the " Whose your best friend " trick!

-Jiayee.

Unsure.

Hey there. Is happy's human here, I will be taking over Happy's blog for a while from now. Just this morning, hap went for her usual training at bricks field .As all of you know, she runs off least once or twice in the training grounds.Today, she was really misbehaving, she ran off whenever she has the chance. At first, I thought it wasn't a really big deal since she was just running off out the field to chase cats in the car park. I had been thinking a lot today, then I realised it Has to be a serious problem and it needs to be corrected before it gets worse. She dosen't wants to come when being pulled, she's a really stubborn dog. I have to carry her every time she does that. On that point, it was a really terrible mistake. When time passes by, she will learn that if she dosen't want to walk, my human will carry me there, and so it will gets worse. I'm not sure she really likes agility anymore, or she's just doing it for my sake. She really Wasn't focusing today, it's really disappointing somehow.I wonder if I'm pushing too much? I don't know anymore, but we'll try anything that's possible to fix it.Furthermore, we're really having high chances on entering her very first trial at an event called Pet World 2010, is being held every year. We might be entering basic jumpers class, which we're allow to be on lead and bringing treats and toys into the ring, which is mainly why I wanted to give it a try for her, since they allow food in the ring.There will only be jumps, tunnels, spread jumps, long jumps and tyre jumps, in that course. But after what happened today, I'm really not sure if I should enter her in anymore. It's a difficult decision. Other than that, we should Really work on our OB, it's extremely bad =P. And so that, we will spend least 10 or 15 minutes to pratice our sit and down stays and comes. We are mainly focusing on stays and come because that should help by when she runs off and I could have a slight chance of having her stay and come back to me. Least, doing it for 3 times per day. As for Agility, it's all about fun. We will set up all kinds of jump and tunnels sequences courses at home and the open field. And I will also work on some jump drills.To know more bout jump drills, click on it :). I think that's all for now, i'll be updating on how all the training seasons at home goes! All these running off and misbehaving out the house is really too much.We need to get it fixed, before everything's too late. Happy won't have her blog back till her human says OK! Hope all the effort is worth it!

Before I end this post, a big shout out to Eva! She did amazing at her graduation test today! She passed her test with flying colours by scoring an 94/100! A really well done job for a 6 months old puppy! Her humans sure put a lot of pratice and effort on it! She make us all proud! The future is looking bright for this puppy :) Well done again!

Signing off,
Jiayee.

A day to tell.

OHHHH.. IT'S GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT to be BACK to be blogging again! Finally, exams are over for the human. So we could get back on the computer again and again and again. We have so many due posts! But since the human is extremely lazy to post all the photos. There will only be photos of Sunday! it was such a paw-tas-tic day! till i ran off.. and i get tied up with some other dogs. It was certainly NOT nice at all for the human to do that to me. I meant what did I do wrong? I just ran off and she just chased me across the field, I mean I let you do some running on every sunday! and you don't even appreciate it and tied me up!Still, me and Eva was forced to do stays with the evil human. She thinks she can handle two dogs at one time, with a stick and sausages. yea rightt.. we will Never listen to her....

  

Later,

OHH SAUSAGE! she gave us the "you better not run off" look. So both of us will extremely scared she might not give us the sausage and stick so we stayed obediently.

sausage hunting.

When I was being tied up, the humans had been training, taking photos, videos of eva. and I was barking like a mad dog at the background. btw, she got it on tape. so you might hear a sweet sound of dog barking that must be me :) [-coughs-more like mad dog]

I have to admit she really has a glossy coat, but hey.. my coat are white too and they do looks glossy under the sun sometimes.

Back at home,I found something really interesting on the plant to play with during my walk. So I brought it back to my bed. 

~ohh caught in action!-

I didn't want the human to know, or she might take it away. so I quickly post a smile for the camera.

UH OH.. here she comes! 

.No time to hide! i'll just post for the camera and act like nothing and hopefully she wouldn't realised the tiny green ball. SAY CHEESE!

And did I told you I got this new toy. I think I'll name it the akc toy. Since it wrote AKC on it, it stands for American Kennel Club. I wonder why can't it be HKC?

Happy Kennel Club? I just don't understand. Oh wells, the human LOVES this toy like more than I do.Sometimes, I even have to growl at her tells her thats MY toy NOT hers. 

She says I only can play with it when it's training time and other time she'll keep it inside the house. I wonder if she sleeps with it on her bed? since she love that toy so much? I mean who knows? Is in the house and I'm not always inside the house

This really freak me out a while! it's float...ing!

Nowadays, I barely get to go inside the house when human mum's home.She says I shed too much, and no matter how hard I try I just COULDN'T get in the house. Not even opening the door works, I think it's locked. Last time they used to forget to lock the pad locks and I get to open it and sneak in.. I missed those

days.

.

Not even putting the puppy look helps too..

Even when I got inside the house, I couldn't have a good sleep. All thanks to my human. I don't like her when she reading those novels and story books she bought. she reads them and start laughing out of all sudden. I thinks she's a mad human being.

Would you be just shut up and read your damn book Quietly? I'm trying to sleep here!

Seriously, One more time I hear you laughing. I'm gonna rip this book off when you're asleep! 

and I think the human is stupid to sleep with MY TOY. But least, i have other 3 to sleep with. there's Mr.ducky, Mr.sg burger[ the human got it from singapore so i just named it sg burger] and fart toy [he squeaks sounds like fart so i named him fart toy.]

and here's the video! take note the beautiful [mad] barking dog at the background!

Till the next post,

Happy.
