Hi!!
I recognize some of you
I'm Aryn from Iowa! My husband and I share our home with 4 great dogs. I'll go oldest to youngest.
Ruby is our 6 yr old Sibe. As a rescue, 6 is our best guess
. Ruby is my first foray into competitive Obed and she makes a great Novice dog, but that stupid dumbbell is proving....difficult. She's all sass and humor, and the dog with the worst start in life. She amazes me with her love of people and mischief.
Noodle is a 5 yr old mini Dachshund, and our first dog. She is our "newspaper" dog and loves my husband and tolerates my presence in her house. She's trained in "coma rescue" AKA waking up my husband early in the morning when I ask her to.
Allie is a 4 yr old yellow Lab. She's the other rescue in the house. She was the first dog I ever took Obed classes with before I realized that her real interests lie in tracking. I track with her throughout the year and randomly take her to Obed classes for fun. She loves nothing more than to chase a tennis ball to exhaustion then curling up in your lap for a long nap. She's almost allergic to life, but we're getting it under control.
That leaves Rocket. The biggest dog in the house is also the youngest and still a baby in Doberman terms. He is my first try at Confo and Agility, and teaches me something new everyday. He has a very innocent sense of humor and loves his people very much, as well as being "big man" of the house. He takes his home very seriously and thinks all stuffies must die.
I'm looking forward to talking with everyone!
