We have a trial this weekend. I am hoping to get some sleep tonight (see my other blogs), and I am hoping to get out of Novice. But then again, we\u2019ll be stuck in Open forever <smile>.<\/p>\n
Agility class this week wasn\u2019t good. She wanted to eat the grub worms or June bugs, or whatever was buried in the grass. That is somewhat excused because whatever she is eating isn\u2019t distracting the next dog.<\/p>\n
I have Rally class tonight, but I am thinking of skipping. I am also thinking of making an adjustment in the class, and will have to talk to the instructor about it. Get back to everyone later.<\/p>\n
But the best news, is that I really do have a new beagle on order with my breeder. She promises that there will be loads of puppies to choose from. My favorite idea is a litter than was born last week that has 3 of Macy\u2019s half sisters. I love Macy so much, and that would be the closest I could get to cloning her. The absolute closest would be to have a full sister, but I don\u2019t think that bitch is breeding any more. Macy is 4 years old, so knowing Mildred, she\u2019d be 6 or 7 or older.<\/p>\n
Lola is also in town and will be bred, and there is another Ben breeding in the works. Plus lots of other dogs I don\u2019t know. Ben has produced a ton of nice looking beagles. <\/p>\n
I think I want to go down the weekend before exam week and get my girl. That would be a good time. Age difference is perfect \u2013 Macy was 4 in January. And I\u2019ve \u201cdone\u201d all the beginner type of training with Macy and now we are fixing things and learning to trust each other when it comes to agility training. I would like to do obedience with either dog, but I\u2019m not sure that Macy is suited. She liked Rally for a while, but lately would later sniff the floor.<\/p>\n
My plan is to do conformation training this summer and start showing as soon as she is 6 months old. I don\u2019t know if beagles take a maturity break like some breeds do \u2013 that\u2019s usually to grow hair, and let\u2019s face it, there isn\u2019t a lot of hair to grow.<\/p>\n
I also will do all the normal agility puppy training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
