OK... here are the awards that I give for DOG IV: Best Birthday Boy: ZEUS (for inviting us all out to play on his special day!!) Miss Congeniality: Isys (for being the most polite and ladylike) Best Battle-Cry: Diamond (for her 'squirrel alert'!!) Jay-Z Award (because he's Big Pimpin'): Diesel (due to his sheer size and blingy collar) Survivor Woofstock: Scarlet (for overcoming all obstacles...including not having a coat LOL) Most Likely to Clear a Sidewalk: Ronin (because of his confident swagger) Most Likely to Clear a Room: Reyna (for being the first to leave a stinky little gifty on the Woofstock floor) Zeus also gets a special mention for being SUCH an awesome guy OFF-LEASH in the dog park!! He was SO HAPPY on his 2nd off leash adventure, I don't think he knew what to do with himself LOL! Nose on the ground... Sniff Sniff Sniff! For that, The 'Cutest Off Leash Award' also goes to Zeus! I love the awards for DOG meet 4! Each are totally right for each of the "kids" Ian, if possible would like to "order" the collage of photos...how to order/cost/etc...thanks

Gary you are too sweet! We won't tell anyone else what a softie you are, don't worry. ;D I could have stayed in that off-leash ALL DAY and watched them all fly around!! SO many HAPPY dogs! If it wasn't getting late, we could have spent a LONG time there... more off leash next time if it's the same type of park! I LOVE our D.O.G. meetups! Gary, it is such an amazing thing that you started. I feel so proud to have so many new and wonderful friends through our group. I can honestly say that Reyna has completely changed my life in so many ways. I had no idea that she would bring me a whole new family! I keep looking at pics and thinking how much alike Reyna and Scarlet are (right now until Scarlet outgrows her hahaha)! There are so many pics where they look so similar! The 2 that REALLY caught my eye are: In the dog park, the one of them both running full tilt, balls in mouth, ears pinned back and Diesel running close with ears straight up. The second is one of the 3 ladies walking side by side, but BOTH Reyna and Scar have their left ears pinned back, right ear standing straight up! LOL OK... here are the awards that I give for DOG IV: Best Birthday Boy: ZEUS (for inviting us all out to play on his special day!!) Miss Congeniality: Isys (for being the most polite and ladylike) Best Battle-Cry: Diamond (for her 'squirrel alert'!!) Jay-Z Award (because he's Big Pimpin'): Diesel (due to his sheer size and blingy collar) Survivor Woofstock: Scarlet (for overcoming all obstacles...including not having a coat LOL) Most Likely to Clear a Sidewalk: Ronin (because of his confident swagger) Most Likely to Clear a Room: Reyna (for being the first to leave a stinky little gifty on the Woofstock floor) Zeus also gets a special mention for being SUCH an awesome guy OFF-LEASH in the dog park!! He was SO HAPPY on his 2nd off leash adventure, I don't think he knew what to do with himself LOL! Nose on the ground... Sniff Sniff Sniff! For that, The 'Cutest Off Leash Award' also goes to Zeus! Reyna could also easily get the 'DIVA Award' for the day... first, she does her business whenever and wherever it suits her. Second, she got more treats yesterday than the rest of the group combined, third she ate not one, not two but THREE frozen yogurts!!! and then there's her hoodie. Of COURSE she had to stand out from the crowd LOL (in actuality, her mom forgot her Watermelon-coloured Chilly Dog!). I have a few pics I will post soon! Ian - can we order a disk of the photos from you?? I LOVE so many of these shots! AWARD PROTEST! How can Diesel get the Most likely to clear a sidewalk award for his swagger when viewing my photos you can clearly see the sequence of him not willing to jump over the 6" rail all the other dogs did ;D Nope I cry foul Diesel you are not getting that one! BUT Most Likely to Clear a Sidewalk - Has to go to Ian Milan /Caesar Sprague!!! Anyone walking 7 dobermans at the same time down a city street will clear sidewalks...in fact clear the street!! Likely mention to all 7 dobermans that helped Ian make his dream a reality! I think there is a couple running for cover in the background of one of the setting up shots. maybe I didn't keep that one?

LOL Gary... everyone that I have shown that picture to said the same thing "Oh I would definitely get out of the way if I saw you coming down the street with 7 of those!!"
Little do they know that those were 7 of the biggest suckiest dogs ever... we won't tell anyone that though.
Gary, we'll chat with regards to the photos and getting them to you. How often are you in my neck of the woods?
Feel free to email me at ian@bocaseyphotography.ca and we can discuss these things. I'm still looking for the notification settings on here that will email me when posts are put up... either that or I have to keep checking this board more often... not really easy to do when on the road.
As for those looking for the group shots, to have them plaqued, (or dry mounted as Gary affectionately calls it), you can discuss with Gary that you want either the group shot from meet #3 or meet #4... for the group photo or the collage, you can email me at the email address I provided above and we can work out details... either having it printed off and mailed to you, or printed/framed etc, and brought to DOG #5 (which I am anxious to hear the details about as to when/where)... I think Kitchener would be a very good location for it.... wink wink nudge nudge.

Ian, if you want a DOG 5 in Kitchener, then get the plans rolling! Gary wants a break from all the planning, its someone else's turn. DOG is a group effort after-all. There could be one more DOG meet left in 2011 if the weather stays as it has been lately. Otherwise I think we're heading into 2012 with better temps. I'm sorry that I couldn't be there on Saturday. It looks as if everyone had a great time. Woofstock presented a great opportunity to add a bit of flavour. The fact that there weren't any other intact males around made for a nice off-leash run for everyone. The larger the meet the less likely everyone cal do that. But with pups, spayed females, and neutered males... I will have to say when handing out awards, Diesel gets the best social temperated intact male for sure! I really like the group shot Ian, too bad nobody removed their prong collars. Bogey's mom was trying to figure out who Diesel was (cause I said he has his daddy's head...lol) and she asked, "is he the one wearing the prong?" Um, , they're all wearing prongs? I know of at least 2 dogs there that shouldn't have been wearing a prong (cough cough, not naming any names). Scarlet gets a pass this time around, but not next time. The others don't get a pass, see you on Sunday... muwhawwhaahaaa (yes, that is evil laugh as I rub my hands together). Oops, shouldn't have said anything, maybe someone will call in sick... lol. Andreina already made her call today... LOL, just kidding Andreina, I know you're still ready to train. Just poor Scarlet isn't feeling so well after her big event. If we don't see you tomorrow I'm sure we'll see you both on Sunday. Sunday should be a good day with everyone attending together for the first time. Kazi will be back in class, Reyna, Scarlet, Zeus, Dante, Rogun. It will be the unofficial DOG 4.5. Then you will all leave and say "lets not invite her to the next DOG meet, she's mean and makes us work...lmao!" ;D

LOL cough cough....... ::)discreet... lol. I hope she's feeling better and we can come tomorrow, you know I am dying to train lol! I have been diligently training all week and making Julian work her too on his time with her. I only opted to use the prong this past Saturday cuz it was going to be very exciting for her and I am not that comfortable using the slip just yet . I will admit the prong is the easy way out, but we are working on it! ;D you know what a little B!%*^ Scarlet is, and she is not giving me an easy time.... lol Maybe Hak can let us know how Kenzie is? .... Cuz the other two red heads are uhmmmm..... feisty firecrackers to say the least.

I'd rather you learn a little better how to properly use the slip, and I remember I said you could use the prong for a long walk... for now. No kidding about these red heads. Cajun is soooo sweet, she was never a b#@%^. Argus is a sweetie too, so where did our girls get it from? LOL.

I don't know but Autumn and Scarlet are both saucy bossy girls lol. Julian always says to scarlet "I'll take u back to Monica's and bring home Autumn". When I got home Last week I said no way hahaha. Julian is coming tomorrow to training (if we train) so he may get to see the evil sister .

Look Andreina.....you can train Kazi on Sunday, and I will take your sweet little puppy for you....lol....heeheeheehee....oh, but then we will have Charlie with us too.....I'm trying tonight to convince Kerrie that three dogs is a good number......(not going to well with that one yet)...
She is really a very sweet, very nice dog, and growing out of her shy-timid stage quite nicely. She is sooooo funny when she lowers her head and walks underneath Dante's body, rubbing his "manhood and boys"....he's going to miss her too.....lol...really miss her!!!!

Hey hey hey! No award take backs Gary!!!!! It was a moment of weakness...I'll prepare him better next time around LOL Yes Diesel behaved himself quite fine at the park Monica. He has his bad days and he has his good. It really just depends on his mood and in this case, there were too many things going on for him to focus on one thing. He was juggling between running after the ball or reyna/scarlet lol Hmmmm....Sunday training sounds brutal. ;D I've heard stories from Andreina and I must say, Sgt. Peterson is on the ball... no one gets away with sh*t!

But it must have been really nice, especially for Gary and Zeus to be able to run free with the other males too. neutered or not, a male Dobe is not expected to get along with other males. So way to go everyone.

If you looked through my pictures there are 2 in the offleash where Zeus is peeing on the tree and Diesel is close by checking out Zeus. They were having a good look at each other but that was it.

I remember that scene Gary. Diesel was probably thinking "Zeus hurry up so I can pee at that same spot after you're done" lol Too bad Zeus couldn't do that to the pee/potty station @ Woofstock with the Christmas trees and pretend wood chips...poor Zeus was soo confused. I couldn't help but laugh
