storminthenight Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Well its been a long time since I posted on here, its been busy around here with horses, dogs and college. I dont know if anyone remembers me, this is probably more of a re-introduction. I found the boards when I got my first border collie, Lootah (now 2 years) and then added Sakari (now 18 months) to the family. Since then we have come a long way, both dogs got their Canine Good Citizen awards. Lootah took his pet therapy evaluation last saturday and did great, he now has to do two supervised visits and if he does well with those he becomes a pet therapy dog. We have taken several classes together, the last was a Rally class, and next month I will hopefully be competing in my and Loo's first Rally competition (Novice A), I'm excited and nervous, lol. I also just got his OFA hip test through the mail and they came back Good, so thats "good" news, lol. Kari is currently taking agility classes and doing great, we are going to keep going and see how things go, hopefully we will get good enough to show one day. I've never done any dog competitions before these two, so we are learning together, and these two have just been great, I love how quick they learn and how they really retain what I teach them, they have definitly made me a big BC lover . Ok, so now all the boring stuff had been said, lol (hope that wasnt TMI) here are piccies of the two . . . Yes, they are sat ontop of a round bale, lol.

PSmitty Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Welcome back! Of course I remember both of your dogs, but especially Kari! I am smitten with her. Glad to hear you're all doing well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue R Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 On top of big round bales is where we take most of our "portraits", too! Of course we remember you and welcome you back. The dogs look like they are doing great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storminthenight Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Lol, I thought you might remember Kari. This place sure was a big help when I got Lootah as a first time border collie owner. Lootah always gets mistaken for a girl, and an aussie. Mostly people think Kari is some kind of mix, and lately people have been refering to her as a him, lol, so its nice to have somewhere to come where people know, yep thats a bc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
