I thought I'd start out this blog with an introduction and such. Crash is our 3 year old Weimaraner, he will be 4 in March. On some pages of his I've said he is 4 already, but technically he will be in March. I have a page all about Crash already set up, pics included if you look over to the sidebar on the right. You will see 'Other Links' and a 'More about me' along with a 'More about Crash' link. These will take you to our pages over on Squidoo. Feel free to take a look!
Crash is already trained in obedience, though we are working towards competition level obedience, and he already knows some tricks. He is also training for Agility. This blog is mostly going to be about him learning tricks, especially useful type tricks. Our inspiration and motivation are these two:
Jesse is an amazing dog and she has done excellent work with him! We will be trying to video tape most of our lessons when ever possible and have plenty of pics to post up. I have to warn you though, my camera isn't taking the best quality pictures right now. Hopefully at some point I can get a better camera.
Crash actually decided he wanted to start today and he did learn a new trick. Luckily I also grabbed my camera! Casey, my husband, has been saying he thinks it's really cute when Crash rolls over and wiggles around on his back. Today he happened to do it so I captured it and rewarded him for it. That was also when I grabbed the camera and got it on cue. He learned this trick very fast, all training was done on video, nothing was done when camera was off. No breaks were taken either, I just wanted to have breaks in the video for easier editing... which I ended up not needing to do.
In store next is hopefully teaching Crash to pull a basket, or to put things into the basket. We'll see!
