I practiced with mine at home by moving poles over the heads, pressing it down over their shoulders, and so on, and having friends do the same. I think it helped a lot when it came time for the actual measuring.Muttsandaklutzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05551047401085562752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-70351558153128659882010-02-18T16:02:38.577-05:002010-02-18T16:02:38.577-05:00That's a great snuggle picture.

He said that I needed to be "the boss" like the Dog Whisperer - then I wouldn't need all those treats. Later, it came out the appraiser doesn't even have a dog... I managed to turn my anger into internal laughing. Sorry that you ran into a so-called pro who talked down to you. That does stink.<br /><br />But, your agility training sounds like it was a huge success and tons of fun.

They probably dont want it and I need to be aware of that.Lol) That person probably thought she was helping you and didnt realize how she was coming across. If someone does that to me, I usually say "yea I already treid that , it didnt work" and they kinda look shocked. LoL Im glad your agility class went well. Tough course. Wow.

It's especially frustrating when you've put in so much time, research, and energy to help Marge to have to deal with something like that.

It's a serious hearing condition confirmed by my vet called "seee-lec-tive hearing". It's very serious.) BUT I could handle that snuggling thing. Really. I'm VERY good at it.
