Border Buddies: UKA Scrambles and spelling mistakes....

http://border-buddies.blogspot.com/2009/04/uka-scrambles-and-spelling-mistakes.html

Monday, 6 April 2009. UKA Scrambles and spelling mistakes. Ok, embarrassing things first. I was told I have lots of spelling mistakes in my blog. I want to apologise for those. I don't always re-read what I wrote, as I am sometimes in a hurry (most of the time in fact) beside, my keyboard is rather knackered and some letters don't work well (good excuse, don't you think? Maybe I should put a disclaimer, like: "all spelling mistakes made on purpose to see if you pay attention." ;-). Anyway, back to Agility.

Border Buddies: Jinxed it!

http://border-buddies.blogspot.com/2009/07/jinxed-it.html

Saturday, 18 July 2009. It seem, that with my last post I jinxed it. Newlands today and not a single clear round. Ok, it was mainly my fault. Having been ill for a week didn't help. When I tried to run in the Agility class (first class of the day RO 1, thought that would be a good sign ;-) ) I realised that having been in bed for 4 days and being unable to eat anything for about 6 days didn't help running or concentrating. When he came out I took him bet to jump No 2 and we started again. This time h...

Border Buddies: November 2008

http://border-buddies.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Thursday, 20 November 2008. Anyway, we had Starters Agility and Jumping (Grade 1-3) and Open Agility and Jumping (Grade 1-7). Max managed a 15th place in the Agility, unfortunately I lost the plot in the jumping and we got eliminated. But he ran beautifully. The Open classes were really difficult. In the Agility I forgot to tell Max there was a snake and he back jumped the wrong jump. In the Jumping he missed his weave entry, which was a rather difficult one. Might put the others on here as well :).

Tuesday, 22 September 2009. Surely they'll get used to *it*? Sadly not for many fearful dogs. As readers of this blog will know, I have a special interest in fearful and/or reactive dogs since being introduced to this by my own Finn. A chance conversation with a friend over the weekend raised the possibility that simply by exposing a dog to their fear-inducing stimuli, they would "get used to it" or in more technical language "habituate". Links to this post. Friday, 11 September 2009. If you'd like to at...

Monday, 26 October 2009. This isn't a full blog on the subject, though its a topic very dear to my heart! Just a collection of postings that I've been putting up on various forums, most importantly to discourage the use of ACP as a 'treatment' for noise sensitivity. British Small Animal Veterinary Association position statement. And a re-post of some info I added to a thread in case it helps. What I've found really helpful for him has been. Working through the relaxation protocol (can email you a copy).
