Again, we were roused way too early on Sunday. Now where were we headed? (Avalon playing with Levi, her brother!)
Here, at a new place for doggehs and ducks. Avalon is definitely into those feathered creatures (as are her siblings, three of whom were there, and her Mom!), while I still have an affinity for the furred sort that dip down into burrows, or race up trees. But I will show you what I saw my sister and family do. Here's a little show all about Avalon (and her siblings' and Mom's) day in Denverton, near Suisun City.
Avalon was very happy to see her mom, Sporty (who is really good at doing this field stuff) and her brothers, who love the feathered creatures as much as Avalon. Here's a cool picture of them all - thanks, Christine of Tigana Goldens for fixing up this photo and helping my sister so much! Now... it's my turn!
Ready Ma, for my closeup heheh! I have a fun match this coming weekend, and at the end of October, there is a show that spans over 5 days near here. Mom (naively) thought it would be practical to sign up for an Open class for me on all five days, hoping that I could snag my CDX in one long weekend! Barbara rolled her eyes and told us to get ready for a full-on judged Open class, right then and there. Mom thought I was pretty ready. Here are both Sierra and I in a little show made just for our friends, so you can see that we're coming along at Barbara's school for "Finishing Dogs."
Here's Barbara making adjustments to Avalon's new bling.

Ooh, Sammie - I like your "Finishing School" show! :-) And don't feel bad about the Drop on Recall - it took me AGES to get that too. And I do that too - once I think my human is going to drop me, I start walking really slowly in anticipation! :-) Well, why bother going fast when you're going to stop soon anyway? Hee! Hee!
Hey - come check out my latest post when you've got a moment - it's about all the doggie my humans saw in Taipei and I think you'd be interested in seeing what they get up to...they live seriously pampered lifestyles!

I thought that recall was quite impressive. You aren't being timed, right? What's the big fuss?

You is sure busy training! I casnot watch videos at the moment and I very curious! hehe!
Avalon's family photo be very good! I guess they takes after their Dad's colour?

Wow!! So much fun! Avalon is growing up so fast!! Her siblings are ALL good looking! (Of course we think Avalon is the prettiest of them all) It is so cool that she can still visit her family!
Lots of fun training we see,...mom wants me to go to school. She says I need something for my intelligent mind and I need to learn to obey when other dogs are around.
Licks for you all!
paws of Love,
Emerald
Ooops! I accidently posted this comment when I was signed into mom's account! I deleted it and am reposting!! Silly me!
You two are both amazing! And doesn't Avalon look like Levi?!!? Or is it just me?
Anyway, I thought you did "come" really well. Your mom didn't say "come real fast" or anything!
Luv,
Dave
