13 Oct, 2013

They can both play their pianos ... would that do ?

13 Oct, 2013

 

Same thought crossed my mind Jane.

13 Oct, 2013

 

they would have a challenge on their hands... now is the piano the instrument you hit with sticks....:-))))

Yes very well thanks and taking over the sofa !!

Hi Terra, I asked some lines up on the book which I recently bought. That guy is trainer of dogs and I know you also train dogs and have lot of experience, Did you read it or did you see it on TV? What is your opinion? Because some of his training methods I already tried and they work! :-)

13 Oct, 2013

 

Sorry Kat... missed that ..
I haven't read the book.
Just do training my own way, which works well ...

Warwick... I'm glad to hear the sofa is in good paws ;o)

I would love to have your dogs help me out in my garden. Maybe they can teach my dog a thing or two. ;o)

Hi Alex ..
Truffle would mow lawns for you .. but he does mow dangerously near the plant borders.. (see my blog) Lol.

Conker could teach your dog how to rake the grass (again on blog) Lol.

Truffles and Conker are very enthusiastic about gardening. The GOY K 9 gardening team.

Terratoonie:

Your garden looks terrific! Of course, Conker and Truffle look gorgeous as ever! :>)

I'm always still amazed how well Conker and Truffle pose for the camera. My dog Puccini would never stay still long enough to get a good photo (even though he's almost 15 years old).

16 Dec, 2013

 

Thanks Linda and Delonix ..
Sorry...
I'm late catching up with comments ..

I hope Puccini is keeping well over the winter.
