Taru's sister Sili has been with us for a week now and will stay a couple of days more. Her owners have taken care of all or some of our dogs for several times, so it's nice to do a favor. It has been a beautiful ”springwinter” here and we've been outdoors quite much. There the dogs enjoy each other, but inside the house we have to be a bit aware with the youngsters. First day Taru and Sili stared at each other but now it has been Sili and Tosi who bare their teeth sometimes. Basicly still, it's pretty easy with all five, but only temporarily, thanks :)!

As usual, younger dogs have done (too little) obedience and (more) agility. Taru competed last weekend but didn't manage to make clean runs, actually not even close to... Well, at least she was the fastest dog on the course she didn't get a disq! (Actually I'm laughting at people who brag about their dogs speed but hardly ever manage to make a clean run. It's however the fastest run WITHOUT faults that wins. But of course I understand that it is important to find the posivite sides in each run :D). Regarding Tosi, proper jumps, contacts and weaves won't be in the program before outside season begins, but there's still many things we have practiced. It feels good and I quess she'll do a cute agilitydog, if only she has healthy bones, even if she's so tiny. By the way, we heard that Tosi's sister Mette has started her first season, but Tosi hasn't yet.

Otherwise we have tried to better our condition, I mean both ours and the dogs. I think dogs already are in quite good shape, we perhaps not...
