Will he walk on a lead in your yard? You need to practice the things you want to do outside the yard, inside the yard first. Pups need more free play than lead walking when young - better for growing bones and joints - so I wouldn't be worried too…

Find a treat that he really likes, or a toy. Make it a game. Lure him with the food and reward him for going forward with you. Lots of praise for moving in the right direction. Practice in the yard first so he knows what it is all about. Agree the f…

Hi Joe, I am not such a good driver and don't feel confident driving on the opposite site of the road to we do. Once the others arrive I will have access to a car. It is more that I have a couple of hours to kill in the evening before they arrive wh…

Wet and Wild Weekend

I must be mad really. Three days of shows over our ANZAC weekend and the weather was horrid. Gale force winds, rain, sleet and a little snow thrown in for luck. Most of our shows are outdoors here in Australia - we simply don't have indoor venues. We spent all weekend trying to stop our canopies blowing away!

The humans may have been cold and wet, but the dogs (the Pyreneans at least) didn't blink and eye and in fact rather enjoyed the inclement weather. Hamish was Best of Breed all three days,… Continue

Runner up to Best of Breed was his sire BIS Ch Laugtun's Thinker (Imp Norway). Yes, I am just a little excited as Sydney Royal is one of our big shows. We go back next Sunday for Group Specials. Full results are below. You can see a picture of Hamish here on the… Continue

Baby Brag

Updated to add a photo!

After winning Baby Puppy in Group two weeks ago, Grace backed it up today by winning not only Baby Puppy in Group but also Baby Puppy in Show! I am so proud of my little girl. For such a naughty little baby (her nickname is 'Eeeevil Puppy') she knows just when to turn on the charm LOL!

She will have a few weeks break now with no shows for her until our ANZAC Day weekend (25 April), although Hamish and I will be in Sydney for the Royal Easter Show in two weeks (she is to… Continue

A Good Day Out

After the sadness of this week it was great to have a good day out at the Braidwood Show Society All Breeds Championship Show yesterday. A fun day with lots of good friends, but also some nice wins in the ring as well. Aust Ch Despreaux Highlander (Hamish) too Best of Breed and then went on to win Intermediate in Group to a huge round of applause from his fan club (yes, he has one - he is mister personality and to everyone I am simply 'Hamish's mum' - so many people seem to know him, but not me!… Continue

Goodbye Liza-Jane

Today I had to say goodbye to an old friend. Liza-Jane passed away today.

Liza-Jane, was a Pyrenean Mountain Dog rescue who came to me as a foster about 7 years ago. When she arrived she was malnourished, covered in mange, and had large abcesses all over her from grass seeds. She was scared of people and scared of any noise. With time she healed as well as she could, settled into a routine and grew to love people and quiet pats. She never got over loud noises.

I never found her the 'right home… Continue

Thanks Tracy
The pictures were really nice and showed a lot of personality. We don't always remember the uniqueness of our dogs and the bond they forge with us and their other animal friends.

Tracy, I have been to Australia several times. I once taught at South Strathfield High School in Sydney and found Aussie kids realky bratty! I gave up reaching when I got into primate work and now have two rescue Pyrs, both a mess when they came, usual histories. How many Pyrs do you have? How many acres?
