Introduction Text In order to keep the dogs ready all year long for their competitions on the agility course, I put everyone on diets. I even count out the number of kibbles my littlest dog gets to eat (24 kibbles)! However, after I stepped on the new scale my husband got for Xmas, I realized I forgot one member of the team... ME! Eeek! How can I expect the dogs to do their best if I'm not doing my best? Spark People to the RESCUE! A bit about the dogs: 3 of the dogs belong to me, the rest are dogs I handle for others. In the white photo (photos by www.ilovedogs.com used with permission) are PJpupp, Magi, Mojo, Gigi, Mushu, Beau,Abbie and Perry. In the center are some small group photos of our friends. Below that are the dogs that live with me, Gigi, Winston and PJpupp. I co-own Magi but he lives with my best friend. Missing from the photos is my sheepherding dog, River, who lives on a ranch in Escondido, CA. All of the dogs are proud canine ambassadors for the Active Care line of dog food by Breeder's Choice and for www.ilovedogs.com. You can see the commercial for ilovedogs vitamins on their site. Also, check out www.ilovedogsdiamonds.com and see the fancy jewelry Gigi and Mushu get to model. The least expensive one costs over a quarter of a million dollars!!!!

We live in So Cal. I run with the dogs for at least one hour every day and show up to 7 dogs almost every weekend in the agility ring (doggie obstacle course). I should be thin, but I'm not, so I've got to step it up!

What do the dogs like? PJpupp*(border collie) - going to the dog beach, Mojo (sheltie/chow) - Kyaking and going for hikes Magi *(border collie/golden retriever)- Spending time with Deb and doing agility as much as possible Gigi *(rat terrier)- stealing food, riding her skateboard and killing her stuffed toys Mushu (chihuahua /basenji)- playing with her friends, going to visit grandma in hawaii Winston *(shepherd mix)- going for rides in the car, sitting on peoples laps. Abbie (cavalier king charles spaniel) - looking cute and going to baby beginner agility classes Perry (sheltie) - going to a dog show... any type, conformation, obedience, agility or rally Tauri & Dra'co (cocker and english cocker)- spending time with our mom watching TV and going to trials Beau (bedlington terrier) travelling with my family
