Culverting. My shepherd Tessa just loves culverts. If we're on a forest service type dirt road with big culverts, she'll be back and forth under the road. She's alway disappointed when the culvert is too small, or clogged with branches and she can't get through.

Here's a quick video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpc-3BmGKq8

That is FUNNY Kiersten!

That is cute Kiersten, Vince loves his culverts too, I wonder if this is where they got the agility idea from.

And Echo’s picked up a bit of, what looks like, a strange behavior lately (totally my fault).

He’s almost 33 inches at the withers and silly me insisted on teaching him this “through the legs” thing. And not to be compared to Jamie’s eloquent dance in any way but he’s caught on and thinks it great fun. He’s getting a pretty good bag of tricks, and if he’s really eager for a training session he’ll start offering up the cutest things.

Well, we’ve been getting goosed lately. I laughed so hard the first time he did it and knowing what he was trying to do; I went and rewarded him for it. Bob came home from our acreage a couple of weeks ago, quite disheartened, thinking he may be losing the leadership battle as he described what Echo did to him. I capitalized on it for a couple of days until he saw Echo do it to me.

It really is kind of cute though, not pushy at all. With me being out of town for a few days, Bob got the little nudge to get him to move his legs so he could go through. I taught him to sit in between them too so he’ll often get through, plop his butt down and twist his neck right back, staring at me with the most adorable expression.

I’m gonna have to move onto something a little more complicated, but in the meantime he thinks this goosing is great fun. He’s such a little butt head.

My parents own a Bichon and it will start to sneeze for cheese.

In a odd why the accidentally marker trained the dog to sneeze for cheese. In the morning if the dog was sneezing because it really does have allergies my mom would roll up a dog alergy pill in cheese and feed it to the dog.. So now it sneezes by the fridge for some cheese

Wow that is hilarious John.

She stuffs her nose under the crack of the door when I go to the bathroom and whines under her breath until I come back out.

Koenig did the same.... till he figured out how to nose/paw at the door handle, and make it OPEN! I don't get to go the the bathroom alone anymore. It's either him, or a kid, someone is always busting in on me.

Koenig will shove his nose into the heater vent on my car. Better way to sniff the yummy outside smells I guess? He also does this in the corner of the Jeep windows when he's in the back. Drives my other half CRAZY, with the sound he makes.

OK the breathing thing has me in stitches for some reason. Finn also likes the corner of his crate making those breathing noises. Its like a congested person who is prone to rattling the floor boards loose snoring. Too funny!

Sharon D.- Yep Finn only likes clean laundry. It took me three times to get that load folded. We have tried dirty laundry and it was a no go. He only likes clean laundry, especially after its just out from the dryer. Since usually hubby is the one to catch the dryer at the end of the cycle the next thing you hear is "FINN GET OFF OF THE CLEAN CLOTHS!!!" Is is MY fault that he likes to sneak in when this happens.. maayybeee! lol

Gnash likes to play "toy exchange" with my son!

It is funny- till you hear it for 20 min. Then it just gets OLD. Koenig- LAY DOWN. I'm afraid he'll pop out the Jeep window one of these days- he pushes into it HARD. Dorky dog.

This made me laugh out loud! My 10 stone Boerboel Kaiser does the same, makes the whole house shake, and don't you just love the nose marks on the glass door?! Leaves you in no doubt they want to go 'busy busy' though!
