Amanda Teschiro
Amanda is s puppy we have kept from the firsts Agnes’ puppies. She has absolutely poodle behaves, she is frisky and cuddly. Sometimes one could say too much frisky, she holds out very much. We never have occasion to dumps her out, it is usually vice versa. I speak about the walking, especially to the hill. She smell to us, she has more foots, so she is faster. She runs up the hill and down the hill and smiles with a wide smile. Darling, isn’t she…
Maybe I should also say something about her intelligence. Like a lot of other dogs she tries to convince everyone she is at least half retarded. But as usually, it doesn’t keep so much time and the truth shall reveal. For example she research very fast that my mum is very liberal behavior (she cannot say no to the beautiful dogs eyes). So if my mum is near the cupboard where the cookies are, the one long look on the cupboard and the second on my mum, it is working. And if not, the cupboard can be open by Amanda’s mouth and the action with looking on the cupboard and my mum repeat. It works almost hundred percent. Soon she has found out that sitting in front of the cupboard all the time is inefficient. So within during one week she improved this practice to the almost perfection. But I must say that she doesn’t abuse us, or my mother, she is very thankful girl. Our apricot shaggy animal very likes snoging and caressing
I’m writing here about the time when we have had Amanda with us in Prague which allowed us to care about her much more, train and prepare her better for exhibitions. Amanda very like flaunts herself.
On her first exhibition (National exhibition in Ostrava 2005) nearly fell apart the table where she has been judged but it is understandable, I think. She has managed other show all right and calmly. Anyway, she has get here her first CAJC prize. Amanda enjoy the exhibitions, not so the waiting, but the flaunting in the circle – hey, everyone look here, here I am, you simply must notice me! Perhaps it could be enough to let her go to the circle alone perhaps she would be able to flaunt herself even poses for the photographs.
But I would like write something more about her character I can’t withhold her downsides. Show me a dog which hasn’t some. Perhaps it would be boring if a little older puppy would do nothing unwanted. Grubbing earth up form the flowerpot, for example. No one knows what she looked for in our big plant pot of our rubber plant but she had been almost magnetically attracted to it. The rubber plant has get a protective cover so this fun has been thwarted. It is still possible to bite some leaves but it seems to be not so funny. Or taking jackets down from a coat stand. She has never damage (almost) anything she has just compensated that we left her home alone. So she took some jackets down and many times we have found a beautiful den made from our clothes. Truly, one my jacket was impossible to take it down so it had to be taken in parts. Sleeve first and step by step the rest. And let someone try to say me that it is right to have well sewed hanger. Darling for a kill… this of course has not happened, I have never taken these things seriously, she just was a better fighter then my jacket. One learn all the time… sometimes even through the loss of his material possession :) .
