14 Dec 2014 Honeybun and CoCoBaby at NCV Christmas Party
The Newfoundland Club of Victoria had their Christmas Party at the KCC Park this year...of Course we have to go....
22 Nov 2014 CoCoBaby learn more things
CoCoBaby now walk into the crate by herself when I say "In" (of course
we are right in front of the crate)....
She still try to push me when she
goes in and out of the house but when I say "ar ar" (and I use my body
to block her), she will stop and wait...love improvements...happy....

22 Nov 2014 Honeybun and CoCoBaby play time....CoCoBaby ignore Honeybun
Put Honeybun and CoCoBaby out in the backyard for a bit after breakfast, Honeybun wanted to play but CoCoBaby just ignored him...my poor Honeybun....
21 Nov 2014 Honeybun and CoCoBaby got caught .....
Honeybun and CoCoBaby got caught playing too rough, when told enough, both pretend nothing happened....
20 Nov 2014 CoCoBaby is a fast learner.....I have 2 pigs now...
CoCoBaby is truly very smart, she already started to pick up Drop,
Stand and Check, of course need food to help but that's how Honeybun
learn at the beginning, and she comes to me when I call her CoCoBaby, she makes change of name so easy for me.... very good today
19 Nov 2014 Day 2 Honeybun with new sister CoCoBaby
Day 2 with CoCoBaby..... Went out again today, as expected, they were fine
except CoCoBaby kept pushing her brother to the corner of the car when
we were driving....I notice CoCoBaby loves taking whatever Honeybun is
having, a spot he's in, the water that he's drinking etc and Honeybun is
not too happy about it, not angry but upset....
I decided to let them take turns, I let Honeybun finish drinking first then let CoCoBaby go to have a drink, reward CoCoBaby after Honeybun, Honeybun goes out and comes in first and serve food in the same order...I love all of my animals, they all get the same amount of love from me, but we have an order here and all of them need to learn and accept it....
They have been sleeping together in the kitchen today...looks like we can have them both in the room with us without the gate tonight...hopefully that means I get to sleep....
Here are more pictures of them together...adjustments and trainings in progress ....but they do get along, a good start...
Already got the insurance for CoCoBaby today, she will be thoroughly check by the vet and at the right time, she will be desexed...it will be done but not in hurry...
CoCoBaby did not eat much yesterday night and this morning, expected, but tonight, she enjoyed 2 small pieces of lamb neck (fat off)...good... the dry is going ....

18 Nov 2014 Honeybun now has a younger sister...CoCoBaby
I would like to introduce to you..... Honeybun's sister CoCoBaby.....
We brought CoCoBaby home with Honeybun on Tuesday, we thought Honeybun would react so crazy with this new sister but surprisingly, he's so calm....they were able to lay down near each other on the first day when we went out for lunch, they walk together with no problems, they share the backyard, relaxing in the kitchen....
I feel proud and a bit bad for Honeybun, he is so gentle, so calm and so generous with his new sister, she keeps pushing him and Honeybun just let her have whatever she wants....
First night was hard, I had very little sleep as CoCoBaby made a lot of noise through out the night, kept waking me up, there are a lot of adjustments and trainings to do but with time and patient, I am sure we will be ok....

06 Oct 2014 Honeybun at Brighton and Rainbow house......
Honeybun behaved so well when we were having lunch with dogs nearby
and when we were at the car park doing some loose lead training. But he got a little bit too excited when he saw Parker (another Newfoundland) and
other dogs at the beach, we kept distant and play on leash first,
everything were fine even after we let him off leash for a while, but then he decided he wants to go wild, so I put him back on leash
and end the water fun.
We walked to the rainbow house, as soon as we walk, he became very calm, no problems whatsoever.

29 Sep 2014 Honeybun at Brighton Beach 2014 (With Belly and Parker)
With these beautiful weather, I decided to take Honeybun to the
beach. A friend wanted to join, Honeybun never met her dog (Belly), I
was a little bit worry as we have to pick them up, which mean they will
be in the same car.
I asked my friend to work with me so they can learn proper approach, they get to see each other before we get them into the car. It turn out perfectly, it took about 5 minutes, they both able to stay calm and sit close to each other with no problems at all.
When we arrived the beach, pure coincidence, we met Parker (another Newfoundland) and Louise in the car park.
We had a little retrieve training (on leash), then went to the off leash dog beach, continue to have Honeybun on a long leash to swim for a bit, accompany by Belly.
Honeybun behaved extremely well. Although that was never my intention to have him off leash first time we go to a off leash beach, but I decided to let him have a try with him staying close to me, pay attention to other dogs and keep distance.
He surprised me with how well he behaves, he keeps stealing Parker’s toy though (he loves retrieving you know )…Parker is so sweet, so generous, they don’t jump on each other, Honeybun seems to know he has to be gentle with Parker.....Love Parker
I challenge myself with off leash training at the beach…a bit scary to be very honest, but Honeybun gave me that confident to try and he proved himself, he is such a sweet good boy. He makes me so proud.
Of course, I will never take the risk to have him off leash when we walk just in case, but I am happy to let him go in and out the water off leash and play with dogs that I know they can get along.
Some on leash training (warm up) prior to letting him off leash is essential, so he knows, if he does not behave, he will never be off leash.
Cannot express how happy and proud I am with Honeybun. More than 2 years of very slow training (my bad), he has improved so so much. I never thought I can have him off leash at all with his extremely excitable, distractive personality and my very limited ability.
We still have a lot a lot to improve, but Honeybun has proven to me that with training and trust when suitable, we will get there eventually.
I am so lucky to have Honeybun in my life.

Came home already exhausted, then rinse and dry Honeybun....finally he is not a salty dog with the whole beach of sand!!!
As usual, he looks gorgeous and I am dead!!!!
Will brush him tomorrow!!!

27 Sep 2014 Brushing Honeybun has become easier and easier......
Brushing Honeybun used to be a nightmare, he wouldn't stop moving and
attacking the brush.... Now...he still move few times and he still not
very good friend with the brush, but he is sooooo much better....making
brushing him a very enjoyable time
Can't believe he is almost 2 and a half already. ..love my baby so much
25 Sep 2014 I want to be Honeybun
Working hard catching up with my homework...then I see this....well...sometimes I want to be Honeybun....love him
22 Sep 2014 Very good weather....decided to go out with Honeybun to the beach.....
Was going to go out on Wednesday instead....but today is too sunny to be indoor...and Wednesday .... possible storm, who want to go out....a bit late but we are coming St Kilda.....
We changed our mind...we are here, Brighton Beach.... — at Cafe Florentine.
16 Sep 2014 Honeybun went to Anal Gland external express the second time....
Honeybun went for the internal express for anal gland today..this is the second time...came back way too fast...if he has to do it one more time then we must consider removing it..!!!!
He was so good when we were in RSPCA...animals in and out and he did not pull or try to do anything...he just look....maybe because he just did the anal gland...but...he behaves better and better and I am happy....!!!
15 Sep 2014 We are not going to miss our day out, although the weather is bad.....
Not very good weather but we will enjoy our day out because we have Honeybun
