Paris is TWO years old! July 17, 2010

Happy 2nd Birthday to Paris!

We went camping and had a blast! Frasier and Paris also got to go swimming. Other than going to training classes and when I drove 280 miles to get Paris, almost 2 years ago, it was their first trip away from home. Below are a few pictures.

Frasier has had his last Advanced Agility class until June 7, when another session starts up. I wish the session would have ended a week earlier; it would have been on a more positive note! I totally messed him up and it showed in his performance. I have to remember to have FUN....don't get too serious! Sheesh.

Paris' 8-week Beginning Home Companion class ended last night. Her Certificate of Completionn is already framed and on the wall in the grooming room. She also had perfect attendance! Her Advanced Home Companion session doesn't start until the week of June 28. It seems that dogs get a summer break.

It is very hard to describe how much fun I am having training my dogs. They are extremely responsive and easy to train. Paris is thriving in obedience. She absolutely loves 'school'. The drive takes about 25 minutes and she is in her crate 'mumbling' the entire drive. When Frasier and I first started advanced agility, I felt like we were both in too deep. However, he has made huge strides of improvement. Last night I actually had 2 people comment that I obviously am working with him during the week....that's not true! He is just learning and loving it week to week. Training classes do take a chunk of my time, but it is so worth it.

Paris had her first training class last Wednesday and she did good! She will definitely benefit from the socialization. She is quick to learn so will do well. Frasier had his first advanced agility class last night. He loved it! I'm the one who messes up! I get focused on him and then can't remember where I'm suppose to go. Sheesh. The instructor tells me that will come with practice. haha

This is going to be a busy Spring!

FRASIER: Frasier starts Advanced Agility classes on Monday April 12. I will probably keep him in Advanced Agility for a few months.

PARIS: Paris starts a Beginning Obedience class on Wednesday April 7. She starts Beginning Agility on Friday June 11.

THE PACK LEADER: Cori meets with her Personal Trainer every Tuesday. She works on Mondays and Wednesdays. Plus takes the dogs to classes and trains them. And will try to go to the gym 3 days a week.

WHEW!
