Schwartz learning to relax around Feivel. Schwartz is a little hunter and would prefer if Feivel was on the menu, this is their third meeting and first food training session together. This exercise is advanced play dead work where you teach the dog to hang limply from you hands as if dead. I find it interesting because clearly the body can learn to relax even when the mind is racing. #dogtricks #playdead #terrier
The mini Strandbeest walks home from the slopes. #ministrandbeest #windpower
Slope soaring over hills of the Bay Area is like being dropped into the pages of a Moebius illustration. #windpower #dreamflight #libelle #dreamflightweasel #pheonix #slopesoaring #glider #sailplane #rc #nomotors
Good morning, Feivel and I are sitting under the grape arbor and playing fetch (swipe for vid)Her fetch game is strengthening, I’m using a more substantial object and throwing a bit farther. The carry work I’ve done is creating some possession as it does. I need to soften the possession with exchanges and by creating a cache box and various ruses so that she learns that the game starts again when the object is delivered. #tabbycat #kitten #14weeks #retrieve #cattraining

One thing Facebook does good is birthdays. I saw today that the little person in the yellow rain coat, now an adult, was having one. When I wished her a happy bday she commented back with the picture to the right. I met her parents in the late 1990s when I went to France to learn the finer points of Ringsport and to prepare my dog Turbeaux for 1999 ring 3 NARA championships. I bumped into Dany at a bar in Le Puy and recognized him from the old VHS videos I was obsessed with. I wore out those old tapes of ringsport championships, and I knew every minute of them, I had seen Dany with two different dogs, and now I was talking to him in the bar. Dany was a second generation Ringer and I was a Ring 3 rookie. It was a big time of learning for me. I trained hard, but one indelible experience was just hanging out with the Maison/Meis family. Not only working dogs but sharing our truths at the dinner table, and on the back porch. Maite was just a little girl then, you can see her standing on the ring field, her father holding the horn used to communicate to the handlers. The old film quality like a memory compared to the crisp digital to the right. For me it was a great acknowledgement that she sent a picture of her dog bowing in a ruff. Like she’s saying hey I see what you guys are doing over there and I like it. Thanks Maïté , Pascale and Dany ❤️#oldfriends #ringsportfamily #intergenerational #malinois #canine_circus_school #ringsport
