(almost) Wordless Wednesday

OMD, kidding time has just started at my raiser's farm... and I get to be play pals with all the new baby goats!!
(pictures of me WITH the baby goat... coming soon!)

The furry cute baby goat pictured below, was JUST born today - he is only 2 hours old... AND I've already met him!
My raiser has 2 more goats due next week... lots of new play pals!

Behaving during a Meeting = FUN Afterwards!

I attended a Naval Academy Event with my furry cool raiser/family; where they would be packing boxes to send up to all of our "groups" mids. (I just slept...)
Doing what my raiser asked of me; I did a down-stay during the meeting, somehow managing to fall asleep, with all those people talking (see movies below).
But the one thing I didn't know my raiser was planning... was IF I behaved well during the meeting, then before we left - she'd let me have a short "playdate" with Biscuit (a yellow lab who lived at the house we were doing the meeting at).
Funny thing was - since Biscuit was outside in their fenced in yard; I didn't even realize a dog was there! (I did smell a furry cool creature... but I didn't know fur sure if it was a doggy).
since I behaved SO WELL during the meeting, my raiser & the owner of Biscuit had both of us doggies on the leash - and let us (slowly) meet.
My raiser was told that Biscuit doesn't always like strange dogs - but fur some GOOD reason, she fell in love with me... and we played for over an hour!
(Biscuit is a 6yr old, SPAYED female)
My raiser took many pictures and videos (see below), I hope you enjoy them :)
Furry Monday kisses!

Behaving during the meeting...


(Movie of Rudy in a down-stay; you can hear the people in the background talking... quite loudly. Near the end of the movie; the chair beside him, gets pushed into his head... all he does is move his head to a different place! Good distraction training)


(Movie of Rudy in a down stay - in coat/harness, people are talking in the background; and many people are walking by/stepping over Rudy. He isn't fazed at all by the distractions/shoes/people.)


Equals; FUN afterwards...

Tuesday with Trixie

I've finally got to meet my playdate pal's new "sister"! (our neighbors' new 12 week old pup).

My furry cool raiser took me over for a short playdate, and I got to sniff Trixie (the new puppy) through the fence!
She's a world of cutest and oh so small; she's also a rescue puppy which is why she is a little bit skinny, but her new owners are working on fattening her up!

Since she is still quite small and "fragile" I wasn't allowed to play with her... but someday soon I shall be able too!

I was quite happy to be able to sniff her through the chain link fence that Tracker & I were playing in, but poor little Trixie was dying to come play with us!

Enjoy the furry cute pictures below,

Furry Tuesday Kisses,

You smell funny... almost like a puppy??

I thinks I can FLY!

PLAYDATE!

My furry cool raiser set up a play date for today with my cool buddy Tracker (who I've not played with in months!).
Tracker is our neighbor's Black Mouth Cur. dog - he's a little older than me, but we are about the same size.
We had a playdate back in July 2010, but then my raiser got furry busy - and never had time to take me over again. She decided (starting in 2011) that she would try to set up some playdates with Tracker.
My first 2011 playdate was today - and we had loads of fun! I was there for (about) 1 hour - my raiser read science while us 2 pups played (having to look up from her book every 2 seconds - to make sure we were playing nicely!). It would be even better with more dogs - but I'm still happy to be able to play with Tracker!
All in all we both had loads of fun today, of course I slept right when we got back home :)
Enjoy the pictures (and movie) my raiser took of us today,
Furry cool Thursday kisses,

Hey Tracker... Lets share secrets!


I think we'd both rather go play though...


and play...

and run...

But all too soon we will get tired...

Playdate... ME?

Remember Tracker? The cute little male black mouth cur pup. He's now a 5 month old puppy - who needs a friend!

The family had another large dog, but due to some horrible aggressive issues she had to be put down. Which leave Tracker lonely - as the little dog they have, doesn't care to play with him.


So? My raiser had an idea of bringing me over to his house to play... I'm only 1 month younger, and we get along so perfect together! (okay, not PERFECT... but at least a "little" bit!).

Today was our first "playdate" and we played for over an hour! It was a blast and I get to go back tomorrow!
(My raiser does stay over with us while we play in the fenced in yard - and she doesn't let us ruff house either - always thinking about safety!)

Enjoy the pictures & movie, I'm off to go nap!
