Magic's 9th Birthday
It was our Magic's 9th Birthday on Saturday and as it was such a lovely day we had a little party in the garden for her. We have two extra mini schnauzers staying with us so 13 dogs in all and they had a great time hunting for hidden treats and (one or two) ducking for kibble pieces in the paddling pool.
Here is a short video clip of them coming out to search for treats. We hid dried sprats and pieces of venison sausage in cardboard rolls, a folded towel, various different puzzle boxes, under flower pots etc. They really love this game:

Re: Magic's 9th Birthday
Happy Birthday Magic!
Loved the pictures and the video is brilliant, seeing all the Schnauzers running out to find their treats was, well, magic
As they all came running out, it looked like something from a dog food commercial
It looks like they all had a lovely time.

Re: Magic's 9th Birthday
Happy Birthday Magic... fab video. I have said it before but when I come back I am coming back as one of Leigh's dogs, such fun. Now am I going to be an Affenpinscher or Schnauzer, need to think about that one.
My Otto has been playing with flower pots today.... stolen from the greenhouse and littered around the lawn, completely unusable now.

I daren't think how many flowerpots have been destroyed here over the years although it tends to be the puppies rather than the older dogs who chew them so not too bad just now!

Re: Magic's 9th Birthday
Is it my imagination or do the affen's look to be more determined and "on it" than the schnauzers?

Re: Magic's 9th Birthday
The schnauzers do go for a quick check and move on, although Magic who has previously done scent work training did go back to examine the folded towel more intently later and did find extra hidden treats. Several of the affens especially the eldest, Crybbe, have done scent work training and they tend to be the most persistent at trying even the harder puzzles for a longer time. Generally, temperament-wise our affens are more determined and focused though and have a very strong drive for anything they want whether food, attention or (with some pups) escaping into places they shouldn't!Oscar 12345 wrote: ↑22 Apr 2019, 16:17 Is it my imagination or do the affen's look to be more determined and "on it" than the schnauzers?

The dogs do often explode out of the house, especially if they think there is a game planned

Re: Magic's 9th Birthday
Dear Leigh
I loved the video and laughed at their antics.
May I show it to the Swiss Schnauzer Forum. They love videos and I am sure this one would be a "jewel" for them.
Regards
Gill
