My wife’s project for this summer was to have our backyard re-landscaped. She was tired of our having a pond three inches deep over much of it whenever it rained.
We had it regraded and resodded and had them neaten up our beds and put in some new planting.
BTW, on the left of the shed we’ve got tomatoes and peppers planted. On the right side of the shed is my herb garden.
Looks really nice; too bad nobody is allowed to use the backyard now.
Take tudors common in Sauganash?
Brick Georgians are probably the most common but we’ve got tudors, streamline, a few Skokie splits, and some vernacular.
Not true. Ziva has been using it straight through. We’ve developed a strategy.
Handsome. What is the big purple duct for?
Never mind. That would be training?
That is a tunnel for agility training.
Now we know who wears the pants in that household, and it would be Ziva.
WOWWW!!!!! Beautiful!!
Actually, it’s a good example of when a lack of options is a position of strength. Ziva will only eliminate in our backyard.
I have a question. I don’t see other props for agility training, so is the tunnel is an especially difficult thing for a dog to get used to and develop speed in?
They’re collected in a container outside the frame of the picture. Most of the obstacles are made of PVC which means they can be disassembled so they don’t require as much space for storage. Some larger obstacles (like teeters) aren’t kept outside because they’d warp. Some (like an A-frame or dogwalk) we don’t have at all. Yet. But, yes, some dogs are nervous about tunnels.
What we focus on when training in the yard are weaves and jumps.
