Avita Whippets

Well, not really lost but we were unaware that they were living about fifteen minutes away from one another.  We went over yesterday to get them together and I was surprised to see that their faces were virtually identical, except for size.  You can see a picture of them here.

Just got some pictures of Action Jackson, the former Dynamo, who is obviously having a great time in his home.  There are newer pictures of the other puppies, too.  It's so much fun for me to see them flourishing and I can't wait until they are a bit older to see how they turn out.  I'm going to reorganize the puppy pages soon as I guess how they looked at three weeks versus two weeks is not so interesting by now.

Well, not swimming exactly but they did hit the agility trials this weekend.  This was quite iffy as despite my best intentions of getting them out for a practice or two before the trial, they really haven't done any agility for about six months.  Unless you count lining up six plungers in the driveway and re-acquainting them with the concept of weaves.

But they were real troopers, qualifying in most of the events we entered.  Big Mo had three first places and one second.  Corky had a second, a third and a fourth which isn't bad for a more mature woman.  One of those legs was the last one needed to complete a CPE level though she has been chipping away at the next one for some time.

We got some new pictures of Prima and included a couple on the Puppy Picture page here

Thursday Wootie and Momo got round three of their vaccinations and became street legal.  The two of them, along with Big Mo and Corky, celebrated by going to a small orderly dog park.  After watching mom & grandmom have fun, the girls asked to be let off lead and took off for some lovely romps.  After that, they went to a cafe where they accepted compliments and got to see many types of people and vehicles that they had never seen before.  Momo is with her family this weekend but Wootie went for our neighborhood walk on Saturday.  We stopped to see Rio, the Bernie that appears in some of the pictures as he visited here, and also our PWD friends, Jacques and Willy.  We all had a great time.  If only it weren't tax season!  Well, we'll still get out from time to time.  Puppy class is continuing and it is amazing how quickly Wootie learns.  She is definitely food motivated which makes training so much easier.
