Pink Lady says good morning!
More crazy Cinder and Caster
Muted the video for your sanity
Cinder has definitely gone stir crazy from being confined for so long after her spay. She feels back to normal and is resuming normal activities which includes playing chase.
Meme had her agility debut today and earned a Q and a blue ribbon in novice standard preferred! This outdoor trial is hosted by my club, the Susque-Nango Kennel Club and I understand it's one of the few outdoor trials left here in the northeast at least. I'm always a little hesitant to do any competitions outdoors with my dogs as they also field trial and the grass brings extra challenges, so I'm proud Meme got over sniffing the deer poop and quickly moved on.
Meme is DC Lorica's Going Viral RN CGC TKN
Finished her CH last weekend, back to work this weekend!
Evie, Harry and Teddy also has good moments but no Qs. Tomorrow Evie, Meme, Teddy, Cinder, Robin and Sol all run to represent Team Lorica.

Evie agility class
Evie agility class run through from yesterday, see she can nail 12 weaves when she feels like it
Robin master JWW
Robin got another master JWW leg today, and he got his first Scent Work Novice Container leg yesterday. Busy, versatile dog!!
Evie open jumpers
Evie JWW run from Friday (the only day we made it into the trial). I'm sharing this even though we NQ'd. I fully blame myself- I shouldn't have tried to slow her down before the weaves because I threw off her momentum. This was our last trial before the (human) baby arrives so it'll be a while before we get out to another trial - I still love that she had fun and left the ring with her tail wagging - she has no idea if she earns a ribbon or not, she just loves this sport!
Robin paddleboard
Robin is lucky to live on Long Island right by the water!
🌊🌴
Here he is on a paddleboard adventure.
Robin master JWW
Robin had a good agility weekend on Long Island! He earned his first QQ toward his PACH, and 22 PACH points for the weekend. He also earned a Master FAST leg yesterday giving him his first QQQ. This is his jumpers run from yesterday. He also Q'd in Master Jumpers today.
A special little puppy is going to go live with his daddy, Mason! Can you tell which of the Mavericks it is?
An evening fair weather walk with (half)sisters Cinder and Meme. There are 3 trees down on our track right now from recent thunder storms.
Jates temperament test
Jates's temperament test - to give you all an idea of what it looks like! Everything was novel. They have never met Rebecca before, or been in this building, or seen any of the equipment used. Each puppy is tested individally.
Jates box game
Jates - Puppy Culture "box game"
He gets it! This is shaping behavior, and in my opinion helps make the puppies love learning from a young age.
You have to full screen the video to see the "box" (metal lid) I use for them to touch.
Please ignore that I train my dogs in PJ's after the human baby has gone to sleep.
Harry novice JWW
This is Harry's 4" Novice Jumpers With Weaves run from the Susque-Nango Kennel Club trial. He earned his NJP (novice jumpers preferred) title with this qualifying run!
Mavericks Litter Czajka
Czajka slo mo attack on paper 😆
Jates - powering up the clicker
Powering up the clicker- this is Jates. This is just early training that a click = food. All my puppies have foundational clicker training. I do personally phase out the clicker for a verbal "yes!" with my keeper puppies. But the clicker is a FABULOUS training tool and I send one home with each puppy. #PuppyCulture really helps shape their little brains to enjoy learning.
