My husband and I have three dogs. Dylan (left) is a 5-year old saluki lurcher. He was picked up as a stray and brought to Binfield Dog Rescue, from where we adopted him in March 2001. He was not an easy dog for the first 18 months or so, being a typical lurcher with the clear independent saluki characteristics, but with lots of training and patience, he has turned into a fantastic dog that is a joy to live with. Dylan does competitive obedience and is also a PAT dog as he loves people so much. Dylan achieved the Bronze and Silver KCGC awards in 2002. Troy (right) is a 7-year old Pyrenean mountain dog. Troy too is a rescue dog that ended up in the breed rescue at 2 years old. We adopted him in April 2001. Troy is a very typical strong willed pyrenees, that in addition also does not like other dogs. This is probably mainly down to lack of socialisation as a puppy, but partly also a breed characteristic. We have done a lot of work with him and he is now controllable around other dogs. Troy too is a PAT dog in his spare time. Troy achieved the Bronze KCGC award in 2002. |
Flash (centre) is our third dog. He too is a saluki lurcher, he is 2 years old now. He was also found as a stray and was brought into Lurcher Link rescue in Yorkshire, from where we adopted him. As Flash has a splash of collie in him, he is slightly easier to train than Dylan and he is doing very well. Flash also does competitive obedience with me and things look very promising. We will start competitions with him in 2007 and will hopefully show people that non-collies can also do well in the obedience ring. |
