And her is her Standard run…

Josie is now a Master in Agility
Posted: February 8, 2010 Filed under: Apso Aficionados, FFT Lhasa Apsos 4 CommentsBut those of us who’ve had the pleasure of watching Josie run already knew that! Over the weekend, she was 100% QQ (double Q with stands for qualifying). Josie can now add MX behind her name, joining the many other titles she’s earned. And, she’s more than halfway done with one of the MACH (Master Agility Champion) requirements, 20 QQs.
Melissa has been an inspiration and a great resource for me. Edie and I will be making our debut in Rally Novice this weekend. If I don’t screw up, maybe she’ll be able to add RN behind her name by this time next week.
Kennel dreams…

My friends Dan and Marti and I are talking about the possibility of adding a small house to their “agricultural” zoned property on the Big Island of Hawaii. They have 8 acres and we think we can build another small house — for me and my dogs. Since the land is zoned agricultural, in order to build another house, we will need to submit a “farm plan” etc., etc., etc. One of the possible uses for land zoned this way is a kennel. Which leads me to two questions: what resources can you recommend to me teach me what I would need to know to have a very small basic kennel. I’ve probably got enough dogs of my own to qualify as a kennel, so I may not have to do much, but….I’m curious. Of course it also occurs to me that it might be a worthy enterprise to have a boy and a girl Lhasa or Gompa there to raise a few puppies, but ….that is a whole other/later possibility which would only come into play if/as/when I decided to move there permanently. My current idea is to be there for the months of the year when even CA has become too cold to be pleasant…..Okay, wasting your time here, but thanks for any directions you can send me in search of information.
