I do appreciate you thinking of me, though- if I hadn't heard about it, I would have wanted to know! :)Crystal (Thompson) Barrerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01738188430244886019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1101438868458660054.post-13006998237264973822011-04-27T13:31:08.555-05:002011-04-27T13:31:08.555-05:00You'd probably read about this through your ow...You'd probably read about this through your own network, but I just saw that Denise Fenzi is doing an obedience seminar in Minnesota, and thought you might be interested.

She followed it and then proceeded to run down the wrong lane. In the past if that has occurred, she immediately runs to me when she gets to the end of the lane. Well this time someone on the other team had chicken. She completed her run and did a perfect front at their feet.Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01229758010712631659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1101438868458660054.post-9454718273446429982011-04-26T07:33:09.168-05:002011-04-26T07:33:09.168-05:00Go Maisy!

I'll have to try that. <br /><br />Ettel- Maisy isn't a huge fan of children in general, to the point where I don't allow them to interact with her. The kidlet is the exception. She's a dog trainer's kid, and quite dog savvy. She's also pretty good at using a high rate of reinforcement, and Maisy will forgive anything with cookies. :)Crystal (Thompson) Barrerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01738188430244886019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1101438868458660054.post-87735702378889017012011-04-25T22:10:11.275-05:002011-04-25T22:10:11.275-05:00Ah that's so cool.

I'm impressed twofold (of course because my dogs have these issues): Maisy's interacting with a child demon ('cus they're all demons in Emma's book) and she's QUIET while doing something totally new with a child demon ('cus Charlie can't stay quiet even with me). Way to go Maisy!
