Pets!

I want to make sure Jaegar isn't gun shy, so I have been exposing him to lots of strange and/or loud noises. This weekend I took the pooch out to my dad's and had him tied out at the house while my little one and I went out in the back 40 (actually it's really 20) to let her get some trigger time on the Tac-Sol 22 AR. He was going totally nuts trying to get off the lead and get out to the range with us, so after I got done reloading the Black Dog mags I went and got him and brought him out to the range. We shot off another mag or two and he didn't really have any reaction to the shots. I loaded up a few more rounds and went and stood about 15 feet from him and proceeded to fire off the rounds with ZERO reaction.

The final test was when I ran a few drills with the P30. I had him and my dad's shepherd off lead, as I wanted them to be able to head back to the house if the noise was too much for them (and they like to play together, so I figured the playing would help distract them from the gun fire). I started some drills with them hanging out behind the line, but after I started I could barely get off a string of fire due to the two of them running between my legs. They didn't give a rip about the rounds going off 5' from their heads!

Looks like I don't have to worry about taking him to the range with me any more.

For you Dutchie guys - are there any breeders here in the states or are they all imports? I have looked around a bit, but never could find any breeders/kennels.

I ran across these guys when I was doing research on Mals. http://www.vandaliakennel.com/

Firing weapons is a great part of the training. When mine hears gunshots she thinks she is supposed to be working. They have had gunfire during every class I have taken at Liberty Dog Camp

At 4 min into this video you can see the dogs swimming across a pond and shots hitting the water around them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGZi7...ayer_embedded#!

Found some pictures of my Corgi Pembroke on his ride home, when he was a puppy back in May 09, now he's a monster as far as Corgi's go.

He's been pissed off lately, the girlfriend brought home a kitten and I am NOT a cat person. If it chews on another wire it's off to the chinese buffet down the street.

Corgis are where it's at.
