Talem passed away this week unfortunatly.

He was 13, and died of a brain siezure or heart attack, in my arms. He woke me up, I thought he had to go to the toilet, but 30 seconds later when I checked he was lying down so I took him back inside.
He passed quickly and quietly soon after on his blanket next to his heater.

A few people stopped work. LOTS of people are crying. This dog left a legacy. Too bad they dont make dog bodys that last as long as the impact the personality has in your family.… Continue

Talem - My 12 year old " The life of Talem"

Talem is 12 this year. Jeep Reid with papers, reverse brindle.
They say Pits live for 10-12 years so im getting a little nervous about loosing him.

I got him when I was 18 and started taking him to Obedience, Agility and Guard training after he was about 8 months to a year. He won a first in Obedience in the state trials end of 1999, second in agility and a fouth place the year later.
I was offered a scholarship with the Australian Dog Trainer Club (ADT) after Talem made it look so easy for me,… Continue

Im sure he was a biggie in his days. Milo is not so big but very musular. He weighs 28 kg now in 15 months age, and strong he is. I think he will top at 34-37 kg, something like that. I just try to keep him in godd fysical and mentally condition. I dont plan on competing with him in any sport. We dont have time for it since we have our own business. But WP i will definitely try. Im sure Milo will love it since he loves to work. We just came home now from a 4 km bicycle ride and after that he worked on the springpole for 10 minutes, he was sooo tired;) He had a massage and stretching and now hes sleeping with a smile.

Tonight they will meet frieds and run around with them and chase the flirtpole.

Talem is a fine boy, i hope Milo will get up to his age. Our bitch Camilla should have a lot of years left too.

Fine movie there with fine pics. I looked on it earlier today.

To compete sucessfully in obedience with a pitbull is well done. Good PR for the race. Here we just exercise them to have fun and train obidience and other things, without competing. WP will be fun.
