My [Finking] Skool Night

Welcome Back teu Dogwood
and teu my Rally / Pre-Novice Obedience Class

Many ob Yeu haff asked a bout the class
I am taking..
I habbs the best Instrucktor ebber teu be
and I wood lubbs Yeu teu read a bout the class
HERE

Now ass Yeu are whell a ware,
whee are running sebben days
be hind on the photos.
And sebben days a go,
the wheffer whas border line berry bad.

It whas darker than normal

and condishuns in The Business Yard were...

off by a nose...

Juss saying.
Here iss looking down to the souf
teu ward The Agility Field.

And here I show Yeu
a golden
cash-yeu-alltee
from the earlier storms...

Spooky skies teu the west
what are full ob the lightning

I did so hobes they wood naught effeck us
in the arena
and they did naught!!!

shhhhhhhh shhhh...

Turns out
my regular instrucktor is naught here
so I whill be learning from
my former (and all so current) instrucktors
Christy and Tracie. 

Whee were running a bit late on a counta
the bad wheffer
and whee did naught haff much picksher time.

Here iss me hearing the tight jumb
a round the up right
in struckshuns

My the trainer and I are a bit
learning impared
so whee lissen in tently
each and ebbery time.

And whee whatch closely
as Instrucktor Tracie demonstrates
wif her Jelly...
how teu perform this properly.

I did work berry hard wif the Trainer
and all so wif the Tracie
teu deu this properly.
I fink I might haff learned a fing or teu,
and I wore them boaf out in the learning ob it.

Here is me waiting fur what is up neckst.

Neckst
whee were teu perform

The Figyeur 8s

This is naught teu wide circles conneckted
butt more like
teu snow cones connected at the tips.

Tracie did gibbs the Mom many tibs

and whee did pracktiss them ober and ober.

I did co operate and perform

berry much as guided.

And the Mom whas quite proud.

Then whee were tole that

instead ob cones and hoops...
in competition,

there whill be ackshewall peoples there.

Ah Oh.
Suddenly, whee real eyesed
WHEE HAFF A LOT OB WORK
YET TEU DEU

Ok. Whee all so did a bunch ob odder stuff teu. Whee did some flat work, some left turns and some right turns... and this iss harder than it shood be on a counta there iss offten a jumbling up ob the trainers and steudents, and that iss all I whill say a bout that, butt...

Fur that reason,
I deu some times lubbs teu go and get a drink.

It whas a berry good class last week,
and I did feel good a bout my performance.

I do so hobes teu perform so whell teunight...

that my finking brain is ass tired...

thiss week ass lass week...

Side Note
what is really more ob a
End Note
I come home wired from Agility.
The Trainer comes home eckSOREsted.

I come home drained from Rally/Obedience.
The Trainer comes home wif her brain of fire
and racing a bout.

I am naught sure what that means
a bout me and my the Trainer
butt the a nalogy
Ying

Yang
comes teu mind.
[that means OBBoSIT... right?]

And fur the record, I did naught deu any business any where,

incleuding building a contack plank
and here she iss in the raw... 

The wood putty whas a problem

picked out a color fur my plank.

 I tole her I whant the GRRH gold

So teu geffer whee pick

A Marfa Steuwart color...

[Marfa on a counta

She iss taking her own sweet time
teu dry her self...

butt I am fank full
that she is dry enough fur me to ecksammon.

Whee haffa  raised fresh hold...
 so it is a bit like a obstackle.
I mastered it.
Bring on the rest!

Good Saturday Here wif De Libberys, Meets and Greets There

Good Saturday

I greeted this morning just ass I all so relented and let go ob last night... by sitting at the side ob the bed, staring at, yea burning a hole in teu my the Mom's eye balls.

I am naught sure why the Mom chooses teu sweep past our normal a rising at 445am. If it iss good enough fur the week, it should be great fur the week end! Time is a wasting. And so am I... wasting a way from the early morning hungers.

How habby I whas teu drag my mal nourished body out ob doors at 615am teu make a circle frew the yard be fore the serving ob my tasty foods... late, but still early enough teu be ordered from the breakfast menyeu... Fank Dog!

The morning progressed leisurely, and I did kinda fink whee might be juss hanging out here fur the day...
