Elke Peper Dies

We were shocked and sorry to learn of the death of top European judge
Elke Peper, in Germany.
Elke was a very popular and honest lady. She was the BIS judge in Szilvasvárád last year when she was carried into the BIS ring by four splendid horses pulling a carriage. She loved it and she responded accordingly, typical of her nature. Elke had been recovering from breast cancer and appeared in good form at shows during 2005.
More information and a full obituary will appear soon on www.ourdogs.co.uk

DOG TRICKS - FUN AND GAMES
FOR YOUR CLEVER CANINE
Years ago, tricks were seen as bad things to teach to animals - not because of the tricks themselves, but because of the way they were taught.
Today, the modern training methods recommended in this book mean that no punishment is ever used, only rewards and praise. Plus, the trainer learns to make the most of the behaviours that each individual dog narurally shows.
It is not surprising then, that by using this approach, dogs thoroughly enjoy learning new tricks and are eager to show what they can do in the hope of getting another treat.
128 pages of full step by step, easy to understand instructions accompanied by detailed colour photographs.
Normally £15.49 including postage
NEWSLETTER READERS PRICE JUST - £12.99 POST FREE
