This contest has really energized my training. Thanks Barbara. A lot of very happy dogs owe you a debt of gratitude for reengaging their people.
What a nice thing to say - thanks! THAT was my hope - to get us all doing a little something in SPITE of the heat (noticed I picked something I could work on INSIDE??).
I'm loving watching all the videos and seeing how entertaining all our dogs can be.
CJ - if everyone is okay with it, I'm perfectly fine counting your videos since you TRIED to get them in on time. I completely understand since mine took so long to load as well, and if the storm had come in, I would have been out of luck too!
I'm going to post a VOTE HERE thread which will be used ONLY for voting. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!! Thanks for playing along and for all the inspiration!
Of course CJ needs to be in!!! IMO the purpose was to have fun,train and video tape your dog within the deadline and she got that part down Well, that and to have some lighthearted fun! I know it took me f.o.r.e.v.e.r. to convert/process/upload my first video. If I hadn't had a willing video helper on Sat for that one I sure would have scrambling on Mon to get it up on time.
I am also a little bit glad I am not the only one bent over holding treats between my legs in my video
LOL… I didn’t get a chance to see all videos before I posted mine and I wasn’t going to make any moves on the computer that could possibly have disrupted the downloading process. I was so pleasantly surprised to see yours too Jennifer!! If nothing else, we provided some entertainment. I loved the sideways visual too; it made the viewing really fun! At least Loki is a manageable size and it didn’t look like you were riding a baby appaloosa. And thanks, he’s a real sweetie.
I didn’t get finished till after 4 am, my time. I almost felt like giving up at one point, but that would be quitting and what would that have said for this fun contest and everything we learnt along the way. Besides, Barbara kept popping in my head (I was getting a bit delusional by that time) “Party pooper, weenie… we’ll mop the floor with your wet raggedness”. It was very motivational and kept me going.
Ana, Haydn is adorable and what a great job you are doing with him. I say he gets in too!!

She really should be a motivational speaker, don't you think?
I vote CJ can surely be in, frankly I think Haydn is pretty great too.
Barbara, this was really fun, actually got my whole family interested (son had to do video posting for me-husband filmed)
Perhaps another contest should be started!

Oh absolutely!! She really has a way of rallying the troops too, is an excellent trainer and look what’s she’s done for all of us in personal development. I’m for a motivational leader…. heck Barbara for President!!
