merledogs Posted December 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 Morning Some good news here on Harriet the missing senior lurcher girl. She is definitely alive, she was spotted not far from her home. Paws crossed! Great news that she's alive. Hope she is home soon Grandma Squirrel & Gracie are staying with us for a few days as GS hurt her foot very badly when she slipped on her stairs a few weeks ago. Tomorrow I am going to teach her how Facebook works ! Hope GS's foot is better very soon RMF : I seem to have put a couple of pounds back on this week. I don't know why, I have been really good. I knew I would reach a plateau at some point, so trying not to be discouraged. We are having a working lunch and then going out for a chinese tonight, which I am really not looking forward to, so I will try to be as good as I can.

khanu Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 I'm very proud of Talyn - he passed the assessment at our obedience classes last night and now moves up to intermediate. I really wasn't expecting him to since we have had so much trouble with waits and stays - he moves as soon as I even shift my weight. Well he did, after some work over the last couple of weeks he managed to sit and down for over 15 secs at a time with me also moving away from him. For a dog that basically finds it very hard to be still or do anything below warp speed I'm very pleased. He is also trying very hard with walking to heel, and will correct himself as he charges ahead, just a shame that it only takes 2 steps before he is ahead and having to correct himself. Still when we started he couldn't even manage to sit to the side of me and I couldn't take half a step without him being way out in front. He even manages to settle on his mat between exercises which is a really hard thing to do for many dogs not just him. He even manages it when other dogs are up and working around him. He tries so hard and is so focused. I just love that little man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 The sighting we thought was Harriet is of a very similar dog who lives near there ... but another sighting has been phoned in which is now being checked out. We are going there tomorrow instead of today, owner has a friend helping her to extend the postering and search area today. Owner has a cast on her foot and is on crutches, just had a foot op.

JulesB Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 Poor Harriet's owner must be beside herself with worry. RMF: Being forced to go to an awards do tonight. Debating whether to just brush the smell of horse out of my hair and ram myself into tights and frock, or have another shower, shave my legs and all that flipping malarkey. I don't even want to go but the boss makes me as she knows how much I hate it. AND I'll be missing corrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spins4me Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 RM thoughts from Leo aged four. Nana, your shoes are the same colour. nana explains that generally shoes are both the same colour. Leo looks thoughtful and then says, "That's OK Nana, I think they'll change colour in the Autumn."

houndzrus Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) Morning Both of us are very lurgified now. Strange one this, as it is so much worse through the night. We're just having hot drinks to try and get ourselves awake enough to go to work. haven't read back, so hope all is well.
