Frannie 0 Posted March 4, 2010 My big ol hairy dog was trained before I got her. She was trained as a companion dog to visit nursing homes, etc. She is completely hand signal trained and I have kept her close to the task on it. Unfortunately she failed her final exam because she is too passive (as if that's a bad thing!) and is not allowed to wear the vest. But she's a good ol girl anyway.

Wish Fairy 0 Posted March 4, 2010 LOL 30 - still freezing no ? Bbbrrr - colder than here!Yea - that extra is a BIG surprise - w never count on his bonus at all, so it's always good, but this year is quite amazing ! Now, he is left in Munich airport trying to buy perfume - lord know what I'll end up with, but it's nice to be surprised Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frannie 0 Posted March 4, 2010 30 is a positive heat wave compared to what we have had... and it's sunny. They build em tough in chicago, cold does not bother me... grey skies, on the other hand make me want to slit my wrists Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember you saying that before. My collie is pretty good on the whistle, but the older dog just does what he feels like now (mostly sleeping and eating cos he's gonna be 17 this year) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DawnyDawn 0 Posted March 4, 2010 I love surprises too Wish...Bob's quite good with perfumem, which is lucky.BG what's it like at the beginning of April in Belgium? like Easter weekend 1st - 4th, Bob's going to a bike meet in (can't remember the naem of the place properly) something like Dehan/denan? He'l;l be camping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well that's up here anyway I think South had it worse this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toulouse 0 Posted March 4, 2010 Let me know if you have the name (fun fact - ahem...

It's lots of fun, we did it 3 years ago and road right down to Spain to see my parents. Took us three days, I guess it's a; bit like driving to Florida from where you are except we have the channel to cross first. It's much cheaper to go by train with the bike than ferry.Toulouse wrote:Let me know if you have the name (fun fact - ahem...
