Dear Berkeley Follow up

For anyone who hasn't seen, Rob Riggle and the Daily Show did a KICK ASS report on the Berkeley protests against the Marines. Just search Rob Riggle and Berkeley from Google and it is one of the first responses. Too funny, but it also shows the insanity that is bred among this lunatics. Also, I have received NO response from any of the city council members I emailed, I guess that is the ultimate answer. So, I am also starting to forward the blog to major news sources, because I am sick of this shit.

Kona's First Search and Rescue Training

Well everyone, we had Kona's first training Session on 3.2.08 and it went great. We were able to see the too initial types of training. First we went on an AIRSCENT search where the dog essentially covers a "grid" area and uses his or her nose to locate a "victim". The shepard we went with covered about 1/4 square mile and located the "victim" in about 13 minutes or so. The second was a trail, following foot prints like a blood hound would, and that was about 3/4 of a mile and the dog located the "victim" in about 40 minutes. I think Kona and I will try and learn airscent, it is a more used search type and longer "deployments" during a search.I will add the slideshow from my Flikr Page as well as a video that of Kona's first runaway. It is a very basic trial that tests his want and ability to learn. He did very well and the trainer said that she did not think he would do well. So here ya go enjoy:)
