My clever little Indi!

Well, the fields are now just mud, which is good because it means we don't have to worry about the dogs hurting there paws on the rapeseed stems. Walking the dogs has been so much easier, they can just run and run and I can throw the ball as far as possible! Indi adores it, and for the first time in ages I've been taking him and Ernie for walks together. I couldn't before because of Indi's aggression towards other dogs which meant he kept having to be put on the lead and his no recall.
Ever since he's been going on walks with Ernie, he's stopped barking at other dogs. It's great, because although I still have to leave him on the lead (we still have a way to go before we get that far) he doesn't go anywhere near as mad as he used to. I think it may be because Ernie just completely ignores other dogs and Indi looks up to Ernie a lot. It's fantastic because Indi can be let off lead a lot more and I can take him to a lot more places. He has always been one of my favourite dogs to walk as he just has so much enthusiasm, and its great to be able to take him with me on me and Ernie's long walks again. He has come so far, and I am so proud of him!

Atm Ernie is learning a lot of new tricks! We are really running out of ideas! I have now taught him to limp on both his front paw and his back leg! The back leg one looked like it would be a real challenge but once he mastered the front paw limp the back leg was easy! What a clever dog! Lola has also learnt to beg, without any support! She jumps into the beg on her own, and although she cant hold it for very long she does it really well! Clever doggy!


Well here are some pics from our walks over the past few days!
