Hallie's first Novice leg

[Dee Dee and Hallie]

I finally figured out how to convert from vhs to something that would go on YouTube! 
Here is a video of Hallie's first time in the ring, earning her first novice leg. Not the most precise performance but she gets A+++ for enthusiasm! 
She has earned titles since and is now officially

THEN . . . it turns out that because the neighbor was wearing twill work pants and Guinness never actually touched his skin, it wasn't considered a bite after all.  :BangHead:  But it's O.K. - all the good you do in life and ALL THE BAD you do in life all comes back to you.  And if not in this life, well, as I always told my kids, G-d has a BIG CLIPBOARD!!

Also looks like a hairless Haillie. She is as always stunning and you could not miss the gusto with which all of it was done.

Way cool!  Hallie, you are such a Star!

Oh, that was great!   I've been thinking about trying some basic obedience again with Winston-we haven't been back since puppy classes, but he's so whip-smart, I think he'd be great at it.  Millie's on a temporary hiatus from the show ring, so it would be something else to try.    That looked like a lot of fun for Hallie-amazing focus on you throughout.  How long did it take you to get to that point with her?

[Dee Dee and Hallie]

I had several people ask me her breeding at the shows...LOL. I had no clue someone just threw this little girl away! I wish I did know what her and Sophie's breeding was.

Kathleen you should it is so much fun I'll bet your kids would have a ball. It took us about 2 years to get to this point, she knew the stuff a lot faster than that but we worked a lot on proofing before I took her into the ring. And I trained her slow, just 5-10 minutes a day and left her always wanting more so she wouldn't burn out. 100% positive, I never scolded her so it was all fun for her plus she is such a little ham she loves to show off.

Great enthusement tail never stops she looks very happy at all times that right there makes a huge difference.
Guess I'm really old still can't get use to the dogs staring up at the trainer one would think the dog would get a crick in their necks.
A happy obedience dog is a joy to watch,way to go Miss Halie & Mom of course.Papbouv
