Fat

So Wicca and Sam are notorious scavengers and ate about 12 cups of cat food yesterday while I was at work. Somehow they got into the spare room where the food is kept....so I came home to two dogs who looked like they swallowed basketballs. Nice. Out came the peroxide- Wicca puked up about three cups of slimy food- and Sam puked up none- that's right- retch, swallow, retch, swallow- there was no way he was giving up that food. Nice. Needless to say they are now fasting for a few days and will be only fed rice and pumpkin the days after. Wicca has a busy weekend and it is amazing how quickly she gets fat....Not sure she will be back to normal by Saturday, but I hope so. This picture was taken this afternoon- they have both pooped 4 times since yesterday evening. Nice.

Last night I took Vito and Boone to the barn. I have never been more proud of a dog than I was of Boone last night. He was perfect- he was happy, and he wagged his tail all night. It was so nice to see that he can be normal in an active, noisy setting. We worked on various skills- targets, one jump work, building a motivator (a goodie container), contact work, and some weavepole stuff. He is not very comfortable working off my right side so we worked mostly on the right.

Vito did some dogwalk work- and we worked on the teeter and some one jump exercises. He's pretty cute and is getting more and more confident. I have to remember sometimes that he is only a baby- and is doing pretty good all things considered.
