Fast n' Furry debuts this weekend!

The big show is here! April 4-13 the Fast n' Furry team will be performing at the Toronto Home Show!

I'm a junior member, and will be performing in a few games all week! I can't wait!!

I'll blog about my performances, and hopefully will be able to get some pics up by the end of next week!!

Fast n’ Furry - Man’s Best Friend and Family Favorite

You will be left panting when you see the amazing Fast n’ Furry showcase. This show is a continuous line up of fantastic dogs showing off their talent by performing flips, spins, and speed and comedy antics! You will see a variety of fast agility, Frisbee freestyle, and the ever-popular action packed team race called “Flyball”. Head to the Doggy Lounge after the show and shake paws with the stars!

Feel free to join us for Pawtographs and after show conversation, come meet and greet the stars and pet them with praise for their fantastic performances. This is also a great opportunity to speak with our Canine Crazy Team and find out how you can get started in building a Fun Rewarding Relationship with your canine Family member.

Fun Manchester Videos

I really like this video. These pups have a great looking backyard!



If you ever wondered what it was like to play with a Mannie, this is a great example. Even when one looks like it wants a break...the other is there...to pester and bug!! Tee hee! Typical terrier!

Enjoy!

A Merryvaluation of Pop Dog Portraits!

Hey pups, just a quick brag for HM...her portraits have been reviewed at the Pampered Puppy website!! She is just sooo excited!! She painted a portrait of the owners wonderful princess pug, Merry. Click HERE to read the review!

Great Crate!

So now that I'm getting into dog sports, HM realized she didn't want to drag my huge wire crate around all the time, so she's found me a great alternative. The fold up travel crate!

It's great, she says it folds up in a snap, is light to carry, and best of all....I actually like it! ;o) Don't I look cute?

Goose Poop Buffet is Officially Open!

Spring has sprung pups!! Know how I know??

The arrival of the Canada Goose! Back home from its winter down south. The grass is starting to peek out from the melting snow, and the geese are now making their home in any open field!!

Mmmmm-mmmm-mmmm...wherever a goose has gone....great goose poop has been left behind!

This is the WORST time of year for HM to walk me. Nose to the ground, feverishly picking up the scent, she's trying to keep me on the sidewalk so I don't go grazing.

I ask you...what little pleasures nature leaves us...why can't we partake in them?

Happy Birthday to Me!

Well today pups, I celebrate my SECOND Birthday! So Happy Birthday to me! BOL! As you know I got a cool new bed, and I'm sure HM will be coming home with some yummy treats after work for me!

I get to go romp at the dog park today as it's my usual day with my dog walker Trish. What a pawfect birthday!

For a little history on me and where I came from, check out my breeders website for pics of my doggie pawrents, Jazzy & D'Artagnon (and some puppy pics of me!).

Here's a snapshot of my life in the last two years:

My first night home. With my uncle Marlie.

Here I am again on that first night. Hiding under the table.

Me lookin' all gangsta in my hoodie!

Playing tug with a facecloth!

Hooking up with some of my Mannie friends at the beach last summer. (I'm on the right).

New Bed!

WOW! Can't believe it's been so long since my last post! Not much happening here...practicing some stuff I learned at the FNF practice, romping at the park with my pup pals, looking cute, hehe...the usual! ;o)

Soooooo...this coming Monday is a very special day...."somepuppy" will be turning 2!

I've alrady got my pressie early too! Special thanks to Janice Thompson from PB&J Designs...HM order me my very own donut bed!

I LOVE IT!! I curl up every night while they watch tv. It's so cozy and soft! Janice custom make each bed with whatever kind of pattern/colour you like!! HM decided on basic black, as it goes with everything! Including me!! BOL!

Fast n' Furry!

Hellllllo pups! Hope you all had as pawesome a weekend as I did!!

I've been given a great opportunity to tryout for a dog sport performance demo team! It's called Fast n' Furry. They will perform cool agility and flyball races at various sport shows and festivals around the city.

Today was the first practice/tryout.

I'm very green compared to most of the dogs there today, but I got lots of great training and turns at all the games set up.

I LOVE going through tunnels!! I learned a cool sequence to go over 4 flyball jumps into a curved tunnel.

There was a super cute 12 week old Border Collie pup that was sooooo smart! We did a series of barrels to run around, and this little puppy had the moves down!! I've got LOTS of practicing to do! BOL!

Here I am with HM practicing the motion of getting around a "barrel".

Here I am running around the barrel

Both HM and I are completely pooped! But man what a great day! (I ditched agility for this today...sorry Brandi!)

Mmmm...Latte and a Cookie

Latte

BOL! No, I don't drink lattes...but a great blog about baking for dogs, by Latte the Sheltie is really pawesome!!

If you like home-baked goodness (and who doesn't!) check out Latte's blog for some YUMMY recipes!

My Human's a Labrador!!

She took this cute quiz on Dogster to find out what dog breed she would be. BOL! A Labrador!! Sounds a lot like her though:

Labrador Retriever: The Caretaker

Your family is what makes you tick, and you never "flea" from an opportunity to hang out with the whole gang. A family picnic complete with hot dogs, deviled eggs and a refreshing swim in the lake is hard for you to stray from. Your sparky temperament and dogged intelligence mean you are not only a blast to hang out with, but great to work with as well. Your close pals appreciate your patience and forgiveness, knowing you'd rather let sleeping dogs lie than dwell on the mishaps of the past. Your dashing good looks may one day lead to a modeling career, if only you can tame the unfortunate clumsiness that sometimes causes you to go flailing from the catwalk.



Click on the photo to have your human take the quiz. I'd love to hear what your humans are..and if they are a similar breed to you!
