Fantastic doggies =D

Spring is sort of here, its brought the sun but the temperature and wind is still ultra wintery. We've been going for lots more long walks now that we have more time and the dogs are loving it =]. Yesterday we went to the nearest sandy beach to us (no pictures as it was a bit gloomy), the dogs had great fun and Indi is really improving in leaps and bounds. He is no longer barking at other dogs when on the lead, he does pull and stare but that is it. Its definantly an improvement.

We have been doing tonnes of new tricks. Ive started training Ernie to read, and he is picking it up amazingly fast! He can already distinguish the sit word, the down word and the beg word. We are working on adding the stand word as well, he is just so smart! Im also finally training him to lift his right legs up. Hes learnt left legs up, but never right legs up. He is picking that up really fast as well, looks like a new tricks video will be in order soon =D. Indi is also learning the 'close' command (heeling on right side) and is picking that up fantastically. We have done a bit of work on reading but it looks like thats going to be a much longer process than with Ernie.

Also in a few weeks were looking after a friends Basset Hound. He is a sweetie, but Indi's never met him before so I think it will be very interesting to see how he reacts. I think it will be a very good experience for him =D.

So for now some pics taken on our walks today. The sun was shining, but it was freeezing and blowing a gale. We still had lots of fun though!
