Just some fun & tricks with the dogs winter '10

Well not many new tricks in here, we have been working on quite a few new tricks which are still a working progress so will have to do another tricks video soon. With Indi were working on the cop cop trick and just doing lots of obedience work. With Ernie we've been working mainly on the making the bed trick and a trick where Ive been shaping him to go in a first aid box and get the things inside by name. He loves it, and picked it up amazingly fast. I will definantly be uploading a video of that soon!
We've also been doing tonnes of agility work. I don't have any agility equipment at home, so we just use what we have and have a blast. Ernie's tree agility is amazingly fast, I need to get someone to video him doing it at full speed because I cant keep up with him:). He doesnt look that fast in the video as we'd been working for a while so was starting to get tired. Indi also did some work, and being a Springer he absolutely loves jumping as you can see from the smile on his face:). At flyball we have also been doing weave poles with a fence that is set out exactly like weave poles, and both dogs have both picked it up brilliantly. I will have to get that on film as well:).
The snow has all melted now, but I added a video of Lola and Ernie enjoying the snow as Lola is just so funny the way she was jumping through it. Her ears were looping right over and she was just having a whale of a time! She wasnt a big fan of the snow in the thin, dusty form but once it got thicker and stickier all the dogs enjoyed it a lot more as it was easier to make snowballs from and great fun to jump through:). Were all missing the snow, but still cant believe how much we've had!
So this is just a bit of everything really. Bit of agility, bit of running, bit of playing, a few tricks and just having lots and lots of fun.:)

I do not own the song!

5* The make the bed trick was super CUUUTE! I also like the improv agility with the environment:)! I would love to see Ernie doing tree agility:). It is so cool that people and their dogs from all over the world are following our example and using trees for agility:). The weaves are amazing and super fast. I love Indi's big smile and wagging tail too! How many dogs belong to you?

@hunkymonkeykaine Thankyou:). Yeah you and Heather inspired us with the tree agility, I will have to get someone to video us soon. I live with 4 dogs, all of which are trained and walked by me but Lola and Max are more my parents dogs while Ernie and Indi are more my dogs:).
