Mochi
Isn't this a cute picture? But it kinda looks like i'm choking her... but really she's just sooo excited to be there. Love her stance though!
Mochi walks the plank
Ha ha i love this photo of Mochi walking the plank. her little paw is like up in the air and she's just marching around. I really appreciate that people bring their cameras and take pictures. I'm always too excited and fumble around and miss the moment when i try to capture anything Mochi does!!
Agility class this month was awesome! She learned to jump through a tire, worked on walking on planks, the pause table, a curved tunnel, and A frame!! It was really cool. I think Mochi had a lot of fun. I probably would say she's the most energetic out of the whole class, and when i mean energetic i'm talking like a parent in denial about their child being ADD, because she TOTALLY is.... And for some reason she's really confident and has no fear, which is great when trying new things but not so great when she tries to run across the street to say hi to passing dog.
We were really spoiled by the Summer hours, she had longer play time in the evening with her other furry friends. But now that summer is coming to an end its kind of a bummer because it get dark so early. It's really hard to rush home try to start dinner and then take Mochi to play all before 7pm. If we go any later she only has 20 min of play because it take about 10 minutes to walk there. So lately we've been skipping the evening meeting with the other neighborhood dogs. And I must admit we are getting more and more lazy with the walks with Mochi. I like to just run across the street to the park in the mornings and let her play in the field now. And actually i guess since the evening are shorter, some of the regulars have been meeting me in the morning for playtime. Which is great but we all feel rushed to get to work... I should keep up the walking regimen anyways because it better for me too. And i'm sure Mochi enjoys that too.
But soon there maybe pictures or videos of a herding trail i'm trying to set up with some of the corgi group. It would be totally fun!!! Ok well we'll keep you updated!!
Woofs!

make sure she does not fall over, hold her up
Mochi's the one on the right "holding" up one of the corgi parents while they were giving out treats.. yup she'll do anything for a treat... Last Saturday we started agility class. It was fun and intresting... Mostly how this one couple keep denying that their do did any accidents. (he pee'd on the wall and poo'd on the floor inside) She learned to touch a target with her nose, go through a tunnel on command (kind of), sit and down on the platform, and walk on a plank. We only have class every frist saturday of the Month so we have to practice. I"m thinking I should probably get a tunnel and some weave poles since she seems to like the tunnel and i just really want to see her go through the weave poles. Ha ha....
But Mochi hasn't been feeling well these past days. I think she may have picked up a bug (either Giardia or Coccidia) i think maybe from one of the dog's she plays with in the evening or from the agility class. Because the target she had to touch with her nose was this tile square that looked kind of dirty... and not thinking of cleaning it off she had to eat her treats off of it.... Anyways we have to get her tested tomorrow because this weekend she needs to spend the night at the Klub K9. She needes to get better before she goes or else the won't let her stay..
But hopefully she will get tested and get the Med's and have everything cleared up before she has to go to daycare... Anywas...
Mochi and I will keep you updated.. While we practice her agility homework...
Woofs!!

ooo dear, gotta lick up before it goes down the drain
Ha ha this is one of the many pictures taken from the last corgi meet up. She couldn't get enough water it was so hot out. There were a lot of Corgi's there, all types. Even one visiting from Texas! We had so much fun. Can't wait for the next meet up! I'm also excited for this weekend we are starting our first agility class with other corgi's from the southbaycorgi group.
Every night we've been going to meet up with the our neighborhood dogs at the school. It's been really great. Only the night before last, there was this small kid riding his bike by the field and Mochi wanted to check him out. Well the kid started riding his bike and not looking where he was going and looking at Mochi instead. He totally ate it. He didnt' cry but he looked really scared. I felt bad becuase i was running after Mochi trying to get her to stop, and he fell so i kind of feel like it was my fault.
Yesterday i brought treats with me to the school, so that when i told her to come she would come straight toward me. Sure enough, totally worked. So she will only listen to me when i have treat in my pocket i guess. Well at least i can get her attention now instead of running away from me all the time, it gets embarassing anyways when you dog isn't listening to you and you are running after them and you totally like twist your ankle.. oh did i say that? Yeah that totally has happened to me. It's the damn field! I swear there's these hidden holes in the grass you have to watch out for or else down you go!!
Anyways, Mochi and I will keep you guys updated about the agility class! We are soo excited! and I'll post more pictures too!!
Woofs,

Mochi and her play groups
This was a picture from last south bay corgi meet up on june 21st. It was so hot we got there around 9am instead of 10 because of the heat wave. She had tons of fun even though it was so hot! It's really great that people bring their nice camera's and take awesome pictures! I can never get Mochi still to get a good shot!
Just This week we've joined some of our neighborhood dogs for a evening romp every days at a local elementary school. There's about 6-7 dogs that come and go after 7:30pm. It's really great because Mochi gets to play with bigger dogs. She actually thinks she is one of the big dogs! She's run after them and try to get them to play with her its so cute! It also gives her a good workout so by the time we get home she's hungry and will actually eat her food.
We've been having troubles with that again... But if we keep her exercised and hungry she'll eventually will eat her food.
Anyways, today this owner brought their dog some kind of Chesapeake retriever. Well we were all there all 6 of the dogs and the owners letting or dogs play with each other, when the guy comes in with his dog and a frisbe. But he doesn't come and ask if he can join or if its ok to let his dog off leash near our dogs. The field is large but not that large, ofcourse the other dogs go over to sniff and want to play with the new dog and the frisbee. The owner doesn't protest, and he eventually joins us and comes over. But then the chesapeake and this other lab mix get into a scuffle. The owner of the chesapeake pins the OTHER lab mix, and yells "get your fucking dog!!" It was true the owner of the lab mix didn't get his dog in a timely manner but i think he was kind of scared. They always say never get into a middle of a dog fight because you will get hurt... But i really don't think it was good for the other owner to pin the other dog down to the point where the dog yelped!!! Well that kind of broke the mood. The "new" owner promptly took his dog back to his house and left us alone. I really hope he never comes back. He actually lives in one of the houses that share a fence with the school, so actually he probably will show up again... But just to mention everytime we walk by that fence he dog is very aggressive to us even when we are just walking by, Mochi never pays attention though, she's a good dog.
