Hello Pals,
I am going to continue on with the Earthdog practice, and introduce you to some of the new pals I met. They were all great sports, and although some did not enjoy Earthdog as much as I, we all loved sniffing and meeting up with each other!
Here were a few pups we met right off. I didn't catch their names, but we were all getting to know each other.
This was Bean. She REALLY liked going into that tunnel after Mr. Rat.
Here is my new friend Tavish. He wasn't sure about Earthdog. Although he liked Mr. Rat, he was not too keen on going into the tunnel. Silly boy. I showed him how, but he would rather find another way to talk to Mr. Rat.
I met my new pal, Willie, here. He just retired from the show ring, and now he could do all sorts of fun stuff, like Earthdog. I was questioning him about the care of his coat, but he said no more worries about that now. He can get dirty and doesn't have to go through that nasty stripping process any longer. Hurray for him.
There was absolutely no way Willie wanted to be separated from Mr. Rat. He was saying how much he enjoyed Mr. Rat's company. His mom and the Earthdog Man were trying to reason with him, as you can see.
Shadow, a Manchester Terrier, is our long-time agility buddy and he told us about the Earthdog Practice. Here he is with Mr. Rat. He brought his cousin Aries and aunt Lilly.
Aries is a Min Pin and Lilly is an All American girl dog. She did NOT care for getting near the rat, nor getting dirty.
We had such a good time there. We can't wait to try it again. We are going to try to figure out how to get the video up and running so you can see me go into the tunnel.
Now, we are off to read what you guys have been up to. We are WAY OUT OF TOUCH!

It's important for the dog to have confidence in going into the narrow tunnel. How's your progress now?
Love licks,

We think we would like to try that, but Lindy Loo would be the only one who would fit in the tunnel. It's VERY fun to see it all. Thanks for showing it to us!

Your new buddy Willie sounds like he is totally over the grooming business. I wonder how wooly he'll be next time you see him.
You seem to really enjoy Earthdog Sam. Hopefully your mum will be able to upload the video so we can all see you in action.
Hugs and tail wags

Earthdog sounds interesting. We've got a yard full of ground moles, if you want to come after them. My cousin, Sparky, tries to dig them up and actually got two. Is the rat let out of the cage during the chase or pulled about still in the cage? If out, aren't you afraid of getting bite? This is a great sport for certain breeds. Cooper
That kinda looks like fun - though I do have to confess I'm kinda scared when faced with a rat......
