AKC has had Lure Coursing titles for sighthounds for many years... They follow a zig-zag course laid with a strong line towed by an electric motor, using a white garbage bag as the "rabbit". Gorgeous event to watch. But all kinds of dogs love to chase things, and some sighthound clubs and...

What are good activities/dog sports to do with a Doberman?

At Last week's training seminar for Search and Rescue, they had us scent gauze pads, and then send the dog to find the scent that matched the pad. This morning, I found a mushroom. But i couldn't see any more. So I scented Tuck on the mushroom, and he went out and found two hats full of...

I have created a blog with a few tips that I suggest you read if you...

I need to create a cement memorial for an Akita male that has passed away. I need it to be full sized, so it makes sense to look for a mold- either hard or flexible. This has proven an incredibly difficult thing to locate. If anyone knows a way to accomplish this, I'd be very appreciative. Even...

We had a really fun 4-day AKC trial just East of St. Louis this past weekend. Zipper is really starting to put things together. In Standard, we're still having a bobble here and there, but he nailed 3 out of 4 Jumpers with Weaves runs for his first 3 MXJ legs and his first MACH points. He still...

It's a familiar sight to every pet owner who has sat down to a meal with their dog in the room: Your furry friend scoots as close to the table as he can get. His big, pitiful eyes stare longingly - first at you, then at your plate. He licks his chops over and over again, hoping to get just one bite...

Here's a neat course I ran with Friday last weekend. We were just over 28 seconds but other younger dogs would have been faster if they hadn't faulted. How would y'all have handled it? 10-11-12 is where efficiency can probably make up some time. It was pretty much the same on the ground as...
