Tani ...

... was born in a litter of 4 puppies on December 25th 2008. She spent the first two months of her life in the Loubajac kennel in the French Pyrenees. Her mother is Pecquelette de Loubajac and her father Hob-Nob's Victor.

When she came to stay with me, we started Silvia Trkman's puppy school, followed by Sivia's tricks class and later on agility handling classes in LoLaBu training center. We do everything using only positive training techniques. We are very fond of Silvia and her dogs, specially the crazy little La who is Tani's 3/4 sister. We also attended handling classes with Daša Zakotnik and Polona Bonač.

Tani has many passions in her life. The biggest one is agility, of course, but she also loves playing with her beagle sister and BFF Xsara, hiding her toys in the most odd places, running through the fields and meadows, playing with sheep and eating.

Tani's First Competition

In Slovenia dogs can start competing in agility at 15 months. Tani turned 15 months in March, but since I don't think we are prepared for a competition (she only learned the weaves on Tuesday and doesn't like waiting on the teeter), I entered her as a white dog in jumping on a competition in Vipava. As I expected, she didn't recognize the weaves right away and I did have some problems keeping up with her :) But my only goal was to make sure she is having fun and isn't worried about different environment, new obstacles, the judge, etc. I was very happy with how she behaved, she was completely relaxed and happy, just as I hoped she would be. She is normally a very carefree dog, but you never know how it's going to be in a new situation until you try it. Anyway, here is a video of her run:


By the way, despite all the time we lost on weaves, she still had the best time in medium :)
