Really proud of Zephyr getting his Kennel Club Gold Good Citizen award on Saturday :huggles: :huggles:

Well done to my lovely boy for putting up with all the training, which involved heelwork on and off lead, food manners (leaving a plateful of lovely treats until allowed to eat them :sweating: ), recalls, stop immediately on command, send to bed from a distance, out of sight stays etc, etc. :thumbsup: It took about 2 and a half hours for the six of us to complete all the tests :sweating:

Here is a picture of him after the event - it's really tiring you know! -_- :lol:

Way to go Zephyr,[SIZE=14pt] Congratulations [/SIZE] :cheers:

I know how tricky it can be as I'm just doing gold with my pup, our test is December 2nd :sweating:

:cheers: :cheers: [SIZE=14pt] Well done Zephyr [/SIZE] :cheers: :cheers:

That is a real achievement, I only got silver with Fern and gave up after bronze with Sky (a little bit of brain would have helped!!)

It's a difficult one with any dog, never mind a whippet - not the easiest dog to train! Congrats again :thumbsup:

Congratulations!!

You must feel so proud of him.

Well Done Zephyr! :cheers: I did the Kennel Club tests with Chloe - she was hard work :lol: My parents Whippet, Alfie, is working towards his bronze at the moment. He's a challenge too!

Well done for displaying brain-dom when all of mine deny whippets possess any brain at all.... :clown:

A [SIZE=14pt]big[/SIZE] [SIZE=21pt]well done [/SIZE]to you both :cheers:

 

[Zephyr]

Ah, thanks one and all - I am indeed a very proud Mum at the moment, and doing the training was really good for both of us :thumbsup: - and has certainly improved his general obedience again as I had been letting him get away with murder for far too long :b but now his recall is excellent!! o

Good luck to anyone else who is going to have a go :luck: - we really enjoyed it, and it is a good reminder about your responsibilities as a dog owner too, as there is quite a big theory section on responsiblity and care :thumbsup:

What a great achievement :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

And I thought Digger had done well getting his bronze :- "

Am conternplating the silver, but I DO think the food manners bit could well be a major stumbling block (w00t) (w00t)

[SIZE=14pt]WELL DONE[/SIZE]

 

[whippetsrus]

Well done Zephyr. :thumbsup: I bet ignoring those treats was really hard work for you. (w00t) A good sleep must be just what you needed after all that.
