and Nella getting on the boat platform and going for a ride.
Training resolution - be consistent in giving commands.
2. Best 2010 moment - Molly holding on to Nellie for dear life when she tried to run away from jumping off the dock. Kiko came to her rescue, you still held on lying on your side. Not a very pretty picture but one of my favorite. Still cracking up over it. Sorry Molly!
I was good didn't say a word.Mary Alice falling out of the raft and still smiling. Ozzie at the water test having a good time. Best moment last year...Sammy saving me first, I hate the water. Jumping off the boat at the water training fun day, I looked back at the man and asked if he was kidding. What I do for my dogs.
My Wish for this year, to have more fun with my dogs, if that is possible.
THANK YOU MIDMASSNEWFERS FOR ALL YOUR HELP, it's been a wonderful year, and for all the GREAT pictures that you let me take. I will cherish them for life.
3. My Best 2010 moment - Birdie jumping off the boat ramp and then off the boat platform!
My 2011 training resolution - work Sammy through his boat issues to get him to a WRD!
4. Memorable moment - I'm with Erin - has to be Molly and Everett falling out of the boat!!!! For me, a highlight was seeing Ozzy finally pull the boat all the way to shore!
As for 2011 goals, first to keep both boys active, happy and healthy. Second is to always have FUN training and maybe in the process progress with Ozzy towards his CD and WD. Of course, finishing up his CH would be awseome.
5. Wow so many great memories this year it would be hard to pick one. It sure wouldn't be of Everett & I falling out of the boat OR Nellie pulling me over backwards on the dock as she ran in the opposite direction. LOL
Where to begin...
- Water Training in general
- We had 5 new puppies join the group, Birdie, Benny, Nella, Lucky, and Karma
- Seeing Ozzy get his first points, 3 point major if I remember correctly
- Seeing Monica & Jo at Westminster
- The Nationals and our 4 dog team (Kiko & Louie, Mary Alice & Fiona, Kathy & Sammy, Molly & Jersey)
- This should be on the TOP of my list. Pam & Steve's news about the baby!!!!
- Watching the dogs improve weekly at water training
- Ellie and her impressive jump off the boat. I could watch her do that everyday
- The NCNE water test and watching the WRDX dogs, very very impressive, and so close to new titles
- Zina getting her WD
- Abbey getting her Champion
- Maya getting her Champion and VN
- Missy getting her Champion
- Seeing Emma (Terry's partner's daughter) get her DD. She is only 17 yrs old, very impressive!!
- Having new members join MMN
- Having all of you as my friends, this should be second on the list
- We didn't lose any dogs this year
My personal best would be
- Nellie's WRD
The funniest
- When Pam and Steve told us about the new member of their family and we thought they were getting a new puppy and how excited we were.
- Mary Alice demonstrating the proper way to exit the raft (falling off)
My goals next year
- Continue training & having fun with the MMN
