I probably couldn't make it until about 4:30. I have a dog training class - errrh a dog owner training class...

With the first part I was going to say Wendy really has you on a short leash, but you corrected it. There is a really good book out, The Art of raising a puppy by the Monks of New Skete I think that is good. It works even on dogs that are not puppys (as long as they are not wild and violent I guess). I read it, but my brother wanted to hire some lady to come out for a training lesson, and she told me "I guess you know what you are doing". My brother never called her back for the second session. The book's first two chapters were way cheaper than the first session. But the rest of the book came free.

I'll be here with the box of stuff you forgot in your excitement.
 
so you got yr dog at watermelon ranch? what breed/phenotype is it?

Who are the trainers at yr class? is that at the flyball place in rio?

congrats on a rescue! I've got two, one of whom claimed the couch on her 2nd day home, and the other was a foster who moved into my heart.

The New Sketes book is worth the money, especially if you check it out at the library. More about 'living with' than the traditional 'power-over' paradigm of training.
 
Border collie mix through Bro and Tracy in Corrales.

Trainers are on the website. They are definitely into being the Alpha over the dogs.
 
me for sure... (I think I'm actually going to make a mtg :bounce:) not sure on wife and little one...

I will be there. Wendy will probably not.
 
Okay, sounds good. We'll get a couple of the obligatory pizzas ;), and something with veggies - maybe a veggie tray. Also have a couple of 2 liters of soda, and water, bring your own beer if you want it.
If many other people show be prepared to get a little cozy! :D
See y'all tomorrow around 5.
 
Probably too late to update the website...

:o

:bang:
 
Oh! I forgot to say, if you have a folding chair or camping chair, it might be put to good use....
Just sayin'.
 
It looks like we can't make it after all. Have fun guys.
