Busy Busy

I've been away for awhile (not that anyone's noticed ;)
Eric was sick, I wasn't feeling well and my job (and puppy) are keeping me busy.
A brief up to date:
Django has gotten HUGE!! He's no nearly 40 pounds and about 21" high. He's getting more and more handsome by the minute. Today he got his rabies shot, so next week he'll start handling classes. He will be shown at the DPCA Nationals in KY in the Futurity Nominated catagory. I'm not sure if that will be his first show or not...we'll have to see how he's maturing. He's got at least 2 months before he can hit the show ring.
Nina's been busy with bite sports and agility. She THRIVES for the bite sports, and I believe we're going to train to compete in the Ring. She enjoys agility, but not the way she enjoys her bite work. I'm considering cutting out the agility and training bite twice a week.
Django was evaluated for bite sports..and he shows some promise. He was tired, it was the first hot/humid day, so we couldn't blame him. Ethan (our trainer) said he wouldn't worry unless he was a Malinois (lol).
I've started both dogs on a RAW diet, consisting of whole prey. While I'm a bit nervous about all the bones, it seems to be going well so far. He has FINALLY had firm stools. They both LOVE their raw meals. I'm hoping once they realize they're getting it everday, they'll slow down! I have to hold the meat so they don't hurry so much. Nina is a GREAT chewer, but Django would inhale it if I let him.
ALSO, another BIG milestone. Nina no longer needs to be in her Kennel!!!! She is now in the kitchen, and if she can prove herself to be a good girl for a month she will graduate to the kitchen and stair well. We'll progress to open small areas of the house a month at a time as long as she doesn't digress.
That's about it for now. I may start blogging more explicitly about their Raw diet.
