Rally-O training competition

Yesterday we got 77 points in a Rally-O training competition in Karlshamn!

For those of you that don’t know: you need at least 70 out of 100 points for an approved score. So this means we are ready to enter competitions after the first of July when Rally-O becomes an official dog sport in Sweden :)

Visiting the Netherlands

Last weekend we’ve made a trip to the Netherlands. We started out early on Ascension Day and were back late Sunday evening. It’s been a hectic weekend for all of us…

Lukas on the ferry to Germany.

Lukas wasn’t the only one enjoying the street crayons he got from his grandma…

Feeding the deer in het hertenkampje (sort of petting zoo). Unfortunately only the goats seemed to be hungry thou…

On Saturday we visited my brothers’ families. At the first family Lukas got to pet a miniature pig and a baby chicken. He also got to try out his cousins’ trampoline. At the second family he got to play with his cousins that are just a few years older. We also enjoyed a great barbeque dinner.

More pictures of our trip can be found in the gallery.

Tracking course

Lukas and Jesper sitting by the campfire.

This picture was taken during the last part of the tracking course for this spring. We didn’t follow our normal routine which throw of Quanda completely. For the first time during all three years at this tracking course Quanda didn’t find the deer hoof in the end. She hardly worked the track and half way through I decided to break. If she doesn’t do the work, she shouldn’t get the reward…

The problems Quanda was having actually reminded me on what usually happens when we are out tracking by ourselves. She just isn’t really motivated… I know Quanda loves tracking, I just don’t know how to put her in the right mood. I got some ideas from the others, so we really have to try to change this.
