We were at the Lowcountry Dog Agility Club‘s trials on Sunday checking out the dog agility action. One of my co-workers (who’s a member of the club) took this picture of Nala and a Great Dane checking each other out and saying hi.
Campus in the spring
Spring time is always nice around here, because the groundskeepers present you with scenes like this to enjoy on the walk in to work.
Four things
Another one of those meme things from Mike that he tagged me with today. If you’re reading, consider yourself ‘tagged’ 🙂
Four jobs you have had in your life:
- carrier for the Edmonton Journal
- sys admin
- medical physicist
- PACS administrator
Poop watching
We have firm poop!
Probably only something you’d hear a dedicated dog owner say out loud.
The last week or so Nala’s been having issues with really soft runny poop, so finally we decided to drop the fish based food altogether. We had her on 1/2 lamb & rice and 1/2 fish/sweet potatoe for the last few weeks, but after the soft poop started up again, we decided to go with straight lamb & rice food. It’s the 2nd day and the poop has started to get more solid. This is a good thing. Nothing worse than trying to pick up soft mushy poop at the dog park. Hopefully it stays this way.
Graduation day
Nala’s last day of Real Life 101 was yesterday over at Waterfront Park. With all the people and other dogs around, it’s a pretty challenging place for dog obedience traning, but all the dogs in today’s class did very well, even when someone’s escaped dog stopped by to check out all the action and maybe get some play time in. The instructor finished the class off with the presentation of the certificates and a little something for the dogs. All in all, RL101 is a great class for dogs and people who’ve been through regular obedience class, and are looking to help improve their dog’s behaviour out in public. We really had a lot of fun working out in public and going to different places for each class.
