Need a little distraction from reality? Here is an unpolished collection of the weird, the silly, and the sometimes serious at Wild Dingo. It's a blog about nothing, yet about everything. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll even learn something. But this is not a writing sample. It's just a place to kick back and crack open a cool Core's 16-ouncer and lose yourself in the kooky.
"He's mental," said my trainer, Lance, about Loki during SAR training on Sunday. Images of Loki's cracker-insane behavior flooded my mind: the motor mouth in class, jumping wildly in the air for a tug or the panic attacks. "Yeah, he's mental," I agreed. "No, not that kind of mental," Lance laughed.
All 17 readers of Wild Dingo may have noticed posting has been light these past few weeks. As our move to Lausanne is starting to become a reality, we've been rushing to get our current home in good shape so that we don't come back to a disaster. That means having a new well installed, trees cut, […]
Mr. Wild Dingo is back again. After being home a total of 4 days in the past month, he came home this time stocked with bribes to keep the quadrupeds from chewin' him out. "Oh hey there Pop, it sure is nice to see you. Blah, blah, blah. Yada, Yada, Yada. Moving on...whatchya got there in that cellophane baggie?"
We've been remiss at Wild Dingo to thank Mango for his generosity in Mango Minster. You see, about 87,000 months ago (to quote Frankie), Loki and Juno received a presie in the mail for their award winnings. We didn't actually expect any award presies, so it was a pleasant surprise. Naturally, we took many photos […]
A while back a reader wrote in with the comment: "Why is your dog wearing a prong collar? There are other ways of controlling a dog." Well, I took her advice to heart and decided to try a different tool. What do you think? Is it working?
May's banner is dedicated to the beginning of beginning a new beginning. "Come again," you say? It's been almost 6 months since we knew about our move to Luasanne, Switerzland. And funny enough, we were informed the entire process would take only as long as 12 weeks. It's been about 12 weeks longer than the 12 week […]
"Hey Principessa, whatchya doin' up there?" "Sitting atop my throne, contemplating how nice it is to be Queen."
It was a busy weekend at Wild Dingo. Our Saturday obedience class with Loki & Juno was was pretty much a disastor and made me want to crawl into a hole. But that's another story. By Sunday, I was seriously wondering if Loki was going to be in a working mindset for SAR practice. We haven't […]
We're getting ready for a busy weekend, starting with a day of errands downtown with the beasts today, then all-day training on Saturday hopefully followed up by Sunday morning SAR practice with Loki. I haven't done SAR with him in months. I hope he knows what to do! Here are a few random photos to […]
It's a bit early but Loki and Juno have begun to plan for the big move. "Hey Princess, since we'll be living near a lake, should I pack my float-able toys?" "Dude, we live 15 minutes from the ocean now. You've never swam in it. What do you think?"
