Dixie ★ Golden Retriever

[MacGyver]

And congratulations about
her growl! I know how HUGE
and very important it is for
her to have a growl. Nix,
my friend's devil dog, doesn't
have a growl. She just lunges
and attacks >.<;

So am I! A growl is so very important. I've talked to everyone in my household about the importance of a growl, so hopefully no one will be "scolding" or "reprimanding" her when she growls, and she'll keep her growl.

Realized I never posted here?? Anyways just wanted to pop by to bookmark it and mention I LOVE seeing all the pictures of your pretty Dixie girlie!! <3 <3

SHAME ON YOU It's about time you posted!
I'm just kidding <3 c;
Thanks, SPG! ^^

The video is totally cute and I'm glad to hear the progress Dixie has made. Have you taught her any new tricks recently?

ISN'T IT!? 8D LOL, and they've been able to play like that nearly every morning and every evening before bed for a little while now, under supervision.
Not anything really finished yet, but she's learning to stand in the corner. Mostly we've just been adding distance and proofing her current tricks. I have a video of a couple I need to upload. cx

Love this thread, and checking Dixie's progress. She's a beautiful dog and a clever one too, I'm sure she will only continue to progress and learn with you as her owner!!

Thank you so much, gam! I'm glad you're enjoying Dixie's thread! c:

No outside pictures lately, cause it's SO HOT AND HUMID that we've been playing and doing any outside training when it's dark, and cooled down a bit. I do have some more Dixie derps I'll post soon though!

For those wondering just how much fur comes off of a Golden Retriever...All she has to do is move and fur flies.


And a bonus: The Red-shouldered Hawk who decided to grace us with his/her presence some days ago.

D'aww <3
A great birthday present,
an update on my favorite
pup, Dixie <3

Love the pictures, it looks
like she has no breaks, just
like my Lola! I try and get
a picture of her running
toward me and I end up
flat on my back!

[MacGyver]

LOL! Oh she has brakes, she just chooses not to use them until very last possible moment. XD Little nut. <3
I'd love to get some pics of her running from a side view, but she's always turning back to me. I tried throwing her ball off to the side, it always looks more like she's pouncing on something, rather than running. XD

MORE PICTURES

It's finally cooled off enough so that we can actually play and exercise during the daytime again.



Ooo!


Aaaahh!


....um.....derp?

Good one! The family dog, Candy, can jump through a hoop, but...*sighs* You need sausage.

Dixie loves her hoop. XD She gets a little too excited about it sometimes, so I have to keep it flat against me, so she doesn't start jumping before I'm ready for her.

Dixie has always been Queen of Derps, I think.

As a follow up to above. ^^

SO GLORIOUS.
