That is too funny Christine!

How is Jimmy doing, by the way? Is he adjusting and keeping you on your toes }(

Take care,

You mean Jumping Jimmy? The canine jumping bean? He's doing well. Goofy and sweet and everything an Aussie should be. But he scares me - he's 3.5 months old and can leap from a stand still into my arms (and I'm 5'10). Although I'm thinking we may be hard core agility competitors one day! How's Pepper? She getting big?

Didn't you want the next dog agility champion}( Wow, that's pretty impressive though for a 3.5 months old puppy. Agility is sooooo much fun! I bet it's even more fun in CA, in AZ we have to be out in the middle of the night during the summer time, so we don't get a heat stroke jumping over those obstacles

Pepper is actually losing weight. Reason is, that the breeder said a few weeks ago that she is "fat" which I found kind of mean. She is just undertall .

No, seriously, she wasn't fat, a little chunky maybe. But she also is a couch potatoe compared to the other two. So I teamed up with her taking her for walks/runs every day on top of the dog park (she can't do agility anymore until after she has her puppies) so we are losing weight together. It goes something like "shared pain, is half the pain", or something like that

She definitately has lost some weight and I am down 9 lbs over the past 12 days - YES!!!

She was a little more lethargic than usual, maybe morning sickness. She sleeps a lot more and is a little more clingy. But other than that, can't tell. She does enjoy our daily walks/runs because she has me all to herself and I enjoy going with her having our "girl talks"
This morning at the dog park she was her old feisty self again, chasing after Scooter and Tuxedo and putting them in their place. The girl still rules the rooste.

Take care and let me know how your future agility champion is doing.
