Hi! Yes I agree with you on the exercising thing completely. Rico is trained to do his stuff outside too, just to add on. I bring him out daily at least thrice (once in the morning, once in the afternoon and once at night) to relieve himself and what not :) It definitely adds on to convenience...

Recently Rico has been having this really strange habit of pooping outside his pee tray after he pees on it. It’s weird because he has been potty trained both inside and outside the house and it’s not like him to do that! This habit only begun after I sent him to board with someone, he wasn’t...

Well, I am really muddled up with titles recently!! I've been told that to get a Ch. title, a dog must get a certain number (I think 3) of challenge certificates from different shows. So I had this misconception that a dog must win many many challenge certificates to be a Grand Ch. in a...

@Sunchaser: He eats his dinner before us, though we are planning to let him eat while we have our dinner now. He does so when we watch the Telly too! I'll try the kong thing, I have a feeling it'll keep him entertained for a long long long time xD @SheltieChe: We put him in the crate usually...

Recently Rico has had this "habit" of licking feet incessantly while we eat. We try to get him to stop by pushing him away, but he never fails to keep coming back!!!! But he did learn his lesson when a guest of mine accidentally hit his mouth with his foot while lifting it up. It stopped for a...

Apparently I've heard this is a new sport originating in Germany- something like a substitute for herding!! Is there anyone here who's actually competed in this game or heard of this game before? We've a small team of enthusiasts here in Singapore trying to put this sport into action, it's a...

Rico has been very mouthy recently, and I think it's partially because he wants to play and also because he's teething! But he also tries to mouth our feet (or at least mine), when we're walking, and at first I thought it was his herding instinct, but I read that shelties nip the heel...

So sorry for the late updates! I was at band camp and didn't get the chance to come online heehee. @Ashley: He adores dozing in this posture! @Mally's mom: Thanks! @Seashel: Yup, he's always sleeping like that, the little croc :lol: @Danisgoat: No problem! It's always a joy to share...

Thanks for replying Danisgoat! We are training him to pee outside now, and I think he has gotten the idea that we want him to pee there :biggrin2: Now it's time to learn that he must pee on the newspapers instead of on the floor! :razz: Sadly he runs out of his pee whenever we get him there! Hahah!

Another photo of Rico :) Always dozing on the floor haha! :lol:

@Chris: Those large, puppy eyes are the ones which slaughter me without mercy, Chris! Hahaha! @Mally’s Mom: Yup, we’re so glad that he doesn’t go inside his crate :D He can hold his little bladder and prefers to do it in our cemented front yard :) @David: Rico says, “Thanks Tara and...

Thanks mbfrench! The little rocket-alligator sends his thanks too :D

@Toffee's Mom: Rico sends his thanks to you! @Princetopher: Haha! He is a very rocket-alligatorish little boy! Always searching for new things everyday and chewing new things everyday! :razz:

Yes, the headache for virtually every new sheltie owner is HOUSEBREAKING! Hahaha! I love my little rocket-alligator (HAHA my mouthy Rico) and all, but sometimes he lets off like a rocket and zoom! A little puddle of pee is under his feet! And by the time we get him to his pee tray, the little...

Thank you danisgoat! Dandie and Chloe look really beautiful too! :D
