A tasty scent at the German Shepherd Club!

You will find out below about that tasty scent in the air at the German Shepherd Club this evening! I can't stop thinking about it. But first some pictures from this afternoon.


Owner Eva with Jingle


Owner Elise with Karly

Now, about that scent in the air. I first got a whiff of it when I was in my box. My mouth started to water. It smelled delicious! Food! And then what? There was Patricia and John eating the very food that smelled so good. It was curried mince that Eva had made for the owners. You know what? They did not give me any. Also, Jingle and Karly missed out too. Oh well. Maybe next time.

German Shepherd on Bed

Here is a picture of my owner Patricia having a rest after I took her to owner training. I decided to lie down next to her to cheer her up.

Jezebel the German Shepherd

Hi
There is a new girl at the Club. Her name is Jezabel. She is quite a looker. Take it easy you guys. No cradle snatching. Jezabel's owner is Vanessa. Jezabel has started training Vanessa already and says she shows great promise.
Below is a picture of Jezabel.

Precious china

John and Patricia went to this China shop in Kalk Bay, Caperown They say it is a treasure house. It is called Whatnot. That is Gladys in the picture. She is famous for her knowledge about old precious china. There are 1000s of pieces. What would have happened if I wagged my tail there!

Severe wind and rain in Port Elizabeth

After a very hot morning we experienced a severe wind and rain storm in Port Elizabeth. John took the video. There was lots of thunder!


I am sorry to add a very sad message. This morning at a traffic intersection near our home in Port Elizabeth there was a terrible road accident. A motor cycle collided with a car. The young man and young girl who were on the motor cycle were killed. Very. very sad.

Cape Town Contrasts

Patricia and John went to Cape Town for a few days last week.
What a beautiful place.
What contrasts.

Maybe I'll see Cape Town one day!
 
And now for a treat!

The Western Cape has a world famous reputation for the beauty of its flowers. Now you know why.

Training on Sat. 2 Feb 2013

It was back to training the owners again.

Below is a group of owners waiting their turn to be trained.

Jo on the right has cared for over 100 litters of us German Shepherds when we were puppies. Note: That is 100 litters, not only 100 puppies. Wow!


Owners waiting to be trained
 
Below is a picture of me showing Brett and Patricia the finer points of "bite work". Note how I have jumped into the air - all four paws off the ground. (Warning to trainers - don't try this at home - it is too advanced).

Look at Brett's body language - cool and collected. Why? He is my pal. We are having fun.
As for Particia - you can see why she got colours for "tug of war" at University.



The "flying bite" technique.
 
Lastly - a complaint.
 
Patricia and John had a great meal at the Club after training. They did not give me any! It was macaroni cheese with a white sauce with bits af chicken and bacon. I heard Patricia and John saying how tasty it was. Oh well - next time!
 
Elise cooked the macaroni.
Elise and Iris prepared the servings.
