Here are 2 video's of KODA and Lily playing Frisbee. I use a cloth Frisbee, and both dogs are self taught. KODA catches the Frisbee and I think Lily watched him and picked up the trick. What Lily does afterwards is all self taught! She brings the Frisbee back to me, and actully places it in my hand waiting for the next throw!
ENJOY
Here he is showing our larger dog Harley that he is harmless and cute!
We are a small, home breeder of Toy Australian Shepherds, or better known as Toy Aussies, here in the greater Phoenix area.
We acquired KODA Chrome, our little stud, on September 5th, 2008. He was born on May 5th, 2008, (Cinco De Mayo). As he grows, we are in the process of aquiring the correct "female" for our purposes.
In the meantime, he is becoming the agility dog I always hoped for. At 6 months, he is able to Sit, Lay, Crawl, jump on my back to reach higher levels, have just started to train him on weave poles, tubes and high jump. But his real zeal is over a frisbee. We got one of those cloth types, with a foam inner ring, that is easier on his mouth. Right from the getgo, he has the ability to retrieve (and I mean bringing that frisbee back to my hand naturally). No training at all, just comes that way. Since this is part of his makeup, that would mean some of his offspring will carry that trait as well. Only time can tell, but we are so happy with his companionship.
The last trait he is showing us besides an incredible intelligence is BRAVERY! Nothing seems to phase our little guy, thunder and lightning - no problem. Stayed out in it and played until I got him inside. Larger dogs - he is proof that it's not the size but attitude. He doesn't shy away but shows more of a curious nature and ANYTHING that resembles a sheep, well, that's fair game for some good 'ole herding!

Witnessing your precious dog or cat having a seizure can be a most frightening experience. During seizures pets often lose control, fall over, chomp their teeth, salivate or drool, whine, paddle with their feet, and begin to urinate or deficate on themselves. Their eyes become large (dilated) and unresponsive. A pet caregiver feels panicked and helpless while watching it all happen.
