Barn Hunt Take 3

So this was my third time doing the barn hunting. This time they moved it outside and I must say that I was more interested in the smells of all the other dogs there than finding a silly rat.

Even when they showed it to me, I really didn't care like I did the first two times inside. Hm..

Maybe next time I will find the rat. :)

Tempest Agility Class Week 1

So Tempest has started her agility career. She is in a puppy agility play group where she gets introduced to all the agility equipment in a fun and low setting so she can't get hurt.

Oh no! Look who is in her class...it is her sister Jerica!

Her Jerica, lets switch owners

Did you say ball?

That is MY ball dad. I don't want to share with Jerica.

First time doing the hoop

Weimaraner Wednesday

Here are some more of the donations momster received

GoPro donated Hero 3 Silver Edition camera. They were SUPER nice and sent the donation right away

Dropcam also donated a cam to our silent auction. Momster is enjoying Dropcam right now because a friend has Weim puppies that she can watch live

Hot Dog Junie's mom is a rep for Natural Balance. She sent us this great bag of goodies for the auction

One of mom's friends made these dog beds and donated. They are super cute.

Mom's cousin is an Avon rep and made up this cute basket. If you ever need any Avon please use Vikki Mayabb as the rep. She is great!

Lupine sent this nice collar, leash and keychain set

Mars Petcare (Pedigree) sent this wonderful basket. It is valued at $300 and includes a free year supply of dog food. They were also super nice to work with.

Mom bought this pattern and one of her volunteers made this. Isn't is cute? It is a Weimaraner tissue box cover. Thank you Angie for making it.

Pet People donated this cute tote with goodies and a gift card in it

Grayhart Weims a fellow blogger and good friend donated this print as well. Thank you!

Half Price Books also donated a $15 gift card. These are just the things mom has been working. Many volunteers have been soliciting. Can't wait to see what all we can bid on. Yippe!

Cool bus

Look what we saw driving down the road the other day. BOL

Mystic

MOL...I stole the blog for the day. I like to sit in the sink the rotten dogs can't get me up there. MOL ha ha Sagira I stole your blog. Love, Mystic

Bokeh's Aunt

We received a magazine in the mail and look who was on the back cover....it is Bokeh's Aunt Bella, how cool!

The goodies

Bokeh with all the goodies he won from the Disc Dog competition.

For his first place toss and catch he got a Brilliant K9 Harness. We LOVE Brilliant K9. This one even has the name of our disc dog club embroidered on it.

and a cool medal

He got second place in freestyle and ended up with this super cool Fleecy Paws leash with the club logo on it

and a trophy

Tempest didn't come home with any goodies but she played her heart out. We are proud of both of them.

Eat Her!

Tempest insists on sticking her head in Bokeh's mouth all the time. We finally figured out WHY. We were at the training club and Tempie's mom was there with 2 of her sisters. We saw Lucy (her mom) do this to one of the pups left. Silly puppy.

Locked Out or Locked in???

So last Saturday mom decided to drive all the way to Lake Erie to spend the day with her mom. So while she was gone dadster decided to go out back and pick up dog poo and pull the weeds. Well, he left Starr inside since she isn't a fan of the heat and took me, Bokeh and Tempest out back. He played some frisbee and ball with us in between his duties. Well, he went to get back in the house and Starr must have knocked the door stopper inside the door to stop it from opening. Dadster didn't have any keys on him. Luckily mom was close to home BUT guess what, she left her keys to the house home because she knew dad would be there to unlock the door when she got home. So.....we remembered our good friend Lynn had a key to our home. Well, Lynn was out of town, but luckily she got her neighbor to go in her house and get our key so we could get back in. What a crazy day! Starr was barking like crazy wanting out, we wanted in. If only we taught Starr how to open the door. BOL

Tempest turn

Tempest turn to show off her disc doggin moves. This is her doing her toss and catch in Intermediate division. She didn't get a placement but she played her heart out. She is going to be amazing once her and dadster get their timing down.

Tempest actually earned her first title on Sunday. She earned her DQ-Bullseye Advanced title. Here is a video of her in action. During this game dad has to stand in the middle of the bullseye and then you earn points for the farther out the dog catches them. Tempest landed all of hers in the higher point zone. There were over 20 dogs competiting in this and Tempest came in 4th place. Not bad at all for a seven month old puppy! We had so many people come up and tell us how great Tempest is and they look forward to watching her learn and improve as she gets older.

and here is Bokeh doing his Bullseye

Fromm Treats

This is part 2 of the Chewy.com review. Bokeh eats Fromm food so when we were given the opportunity to review the new treats we were all over it.

Chewy.com sent the package to us very quickly. The flavor they sent us to try is Cheese Recipe. These treats are manufactured in the USA (good thing there have been so many reports of foods coming in from China). The treats are a nice size and crunchy like a cracker. They are made with fresh cheese. Did you say cheese? Yes please! The ingredients include: wheat flour, cheese, salt, brewers dried yeast and garlic powder (I heard that helps keep the fleas away, so can I have a few extra treats mom?)

Me posing with the bag of treats. Hurry up dad so we can try these out!

Up close of the bag. We think the bag is very nicely designed. Not too busy and easy to read. They kept it simple and to the point and made it very easy to read the ingredients, etc.

Picture of the treat

All of us sitting nicely so dadster will hurry up and pass out the treats

Bokeh wanted to do a trick to get his treat quicker, BOL

So to sum it up, we would purchase these again in the future. These would be treats that we can use for either training or as a reward for coming back in the house, we could keep some in the treat jar. Thank you Chewy.com for allowing us to sample these new yummy treats.

Oh...one last thing. Louisville Weimaraner Rescue will receive a $20 donation for any NEW customers making their first purchase if they just use this LINK HERE

Orijen Treats

So as you all know by now Tempest, Starr and I all eat Orijen. Tempest eats the Puppy and Starr and I eat the adult because we are big girls now. Anyhoo, our friends over at Chewy.com asked us if we would like to try the new Orijen treats so we of course barked YES YES YES!

Chewy.com sent the package to us very quickly. The flavor they sent us to try is Ranch Raised Lamb. These treats (and our food) are manufactured in Canada. The treats are freeze dried. The ingredients are 100% lamb, boneless lamb, lamb liver and lamb tripe. The treats are soft and a nice size. Since we do so much agility and training we are super happy to hear that Orijen is now making treats so we can use these during our training. We are always looking for treats that are soft and easy to break up into smaller pieces during training.

Picture of the treat

I was being silly and trying to smile at dad so he would give me my treat before Starr. Starr always gets hers first since she is the oldest in the house.

Starr the first to try them. She loved them.

Bokeh's turn

Oh and for those worried about their figure, you will be happy to know they are only 5 calories per treat.

So to sum it up, we are very happy to hear Orijen is finally making treats. We will be buying these to use during our training in the future. Thank you Chewy.com for allowing us to sample these new yummy treats.

More Disc Doggin

Bokeh doing his Intermediate level toss and catch. He did awesome and came in first place!

and here is video of Bokeh doing his Intermediate level freestyle routine. He ended up coming in 2nd place (he lost to his cousin Bling!)

(for those that might want to see his cousin Bling's routine)

We had a great time. It was such a beautiful day!

Disc Doggin

So last weekend we went disc doggin in Troy, Ohio. Guess who showed up? Tempest sister, Jerica! It was her first ever disc event. Here is a video of Leila with Jerica for the FIRST time ever.

She did awesome and got 1st place in Junior handler division. So proud of Leila and Jerica. You go girls!

Video of her getting her award, she was so happy.

Dawe's

Last month we went to Dawe's Aboretum and Frankie and Ernie met us there. They brought us some more donations for mom's rescue (they are SO kind). We went there to take pictures for a friend for Mothers Day.

Quick photo op by the Japanese garden.

Mom with her friends and me with mine

You ready to go home yet?

Barkley

So....some of you may not know this but we used to foster dogs for a mixed breed rescue group. We have kind of gotten away from that since we currently have a full house of permanent residence. Anyhoo....we had a foster puppy named Barkley back in May 2010. You can see puppy pics and read about Barkley on our old post HERE.

Barkley got adopted by an author who lived in Massachusetts. When Barkley left for his new home momster cried a little more than normal because she thought she would never see him again. Well...guess what! They moved to COLUMBUS earlier this year. One of mom's good friends actually lives with Barkley and his family and she brought him to see us when she was having her photos taken for Mothers day. Momster was so happy to see Barkely again. He grew up to be so much bigger than mom though. He is so tall. He is such a good boy though.

Three years later I was reunited with my past foster brother.
