Wow - it's like some sort of Minority Report for dog breeding ;) I must admit we never even considered this when buying Harv (in all honesty I'd...
Thanks for the feedback. To his credit BIL has tried feeding them separately and this seems to help (at least at meal times). As Julie suggests,...
My brother-in-law has two working cocker spaniels. They are father and son and aged around 5 and 3 respectively. As the son has matured they have...
I like your style. Something similar to this no doubt :) : [IMG]
What a horrible experience. I don't know what it is with collies (I'm assuming Border rather than Lassie type) but we've had trouble with them...
A while ago I taught Harv how to walk backwards (of limited practical use but it was more of a training exercise for us). The action is on both a...

Yes, we still use both. Visual cues are ideal for working at a distance too.
There are lots of these fantastic birds here in Myddfai (Carmarthenshire). They have a very distinctive cry when circling overhead don't they?
It's a good news, bad news scenario- the good news is that the nice neighbour has returned Harv's bumblebee, the bad news is that we only have the...
You mean you actually listen to what your in-laws say? ;) Seriously though, your dog is perfectly normal and you have been doing exactly the...
Sounds good to me too. One thing that I would change is rather than saying "Arnie, sit" I would simply say "Sit". You really only need to add a...
