Lulu & Minnie

 Lulu back in rally o training! And we also went back to agility training!!! OMG, how happy she was!!!!

 After the very first seminar about nosework (16th Dec ´22), we did 6 sessions at home. Then, on 20th Jan ´23, we had 2nd seminar about signaling. After that we have done 3 sessions that include signaling. Video of the last one is below: I started with 3 jars and then moved to 5 (first time). She has been doing a great job, little confusion on couple of times is okay.  She enjoys it so much!

Without the doubt, the biggest thing in January, was improving her health. She got a Lubravisc injection to the knee (artificial joint liquid) + 1st shot of Librela, to get the knee pain free on 12th January. Already next day I saw the change. She was so playful and active. 100x more than before...and I thought that she grew up :) She also got 2x laser treatment for the shoulder and knee during January. AND we got green light from the vet and physiotherapist to try agility again! This is huge!  My little goofball - pain free! But when my little girl had high fever Lulu guarded her closely! She has such a sweet heart!

In the light of not being able to do agility, but Lulu still needs some activity, then we went to try a new field for us: nose work.  The first introductory seminar was in the mid December, where I learn about nosework as such. We started to recognise a scent - chamomile. Lulu showed a great enthusiasm for it. So I decided to keep the practice up. By now we have done 4 sessions in home and reached to 7 jars.  Lulu do not indicate the scent yet. This is added soon :) Here is a video from our last training session:

 In December we got the MRI results back. The operated knee has a meniscus injury :( witch is Plus little injury in the left elbow, that could be easily repaired. So as a result, Lulu will not do agility any more. I feel very sorry because she really really loved it. 

November went by by sleeping and sitting weirdly :) Actually after the rest we went back to agilty where she started to limp. So I went back to the clinic where MRI for all paws were performed in the end of November. Waiting for the answers...

 Autum walks: In the beginning of October Lulu started to limp in agility training...after second time we went to the vet. Who put Lulu on the pain meds and resting for 1 month. So no training but lots of sleeping :)
