Onze G.P. … wat een fijne kamerdaad. Nu hij 6 maanden oud is weet hij tijdens onze wandelingen zijn krachten beter te doseren, hoewel hij soms nog altijd zoals een jong wild zwijn door het kreupelhout, droge grachten en over hellingen raast… Ik hou wel van dat felle, onstuimige maar gedoseerde karakter. Gisteren zijn we voor het eerst naar de trimster geweest. We voelden ons direct thuis, een hele lieve jonge vrouw met een heel groot hart voor honden. We besloten om de trimsessie in 2 stages te doen zodat G.P. niet te lang onder druk moest staan en zo het een toch fijne ervaring vind. Volgende week doet ze verder. Zijn kop rug en buik zijn in orde – het ziet er nu een echte Schnauzer uit! – de zijkanten moeten nog gedaan worden. Ik voel aan hem dat hij zeer tevreden is om van die dikke pelsen jas verlost te zijn… Deze morgen al vertrokken in de duisternis, fijne aangename wandeling gemaakt. Nu die dikke jas uit is heeft hij precies nog meer energie…maar zoals gezegd , weet hij die nu beter te doseren. Tijdens de lessen in de hondenschool doet hij ook flink zijn best, iedereen is aangenaam verrast dat hij zo goed werkt en alles zo snel aanneemt. In’t begin waren ze zowat onzeker en wantrouwig omdat ze dachten dat Schnauzers enkel koppige felle honden zijn. G.P. heeft ze laten zien dat hij wel fel, onstuimig, enthousiast maar leergierig en zeer sociaal is! Iedereen die ik binnen laat wordt enthousiast begroet, hoewel hij toch al best waaks is of begint te worden!
We zitten nu al 2 weken in de A-klas – overgegaan van de puppy-klas – en ook daar werkt hij goed en doet flink zijn best.
Erg tevreden Schnauzer baasjes,
Stef & Annie
Voor het trimmen Na de 1ste trimbeurt
During my morning reading slot this fit perfectly into the routine, and a look at sandaltimber extended that perfect fit into the rest of the routine, content that matches the rhythm of how I actually read rather than demanding accommodation from my schedule is content well calibrated to its likely audience and this site has it.
Reading this in a quiet hour and finding it suited the quiet, and a stop at gondoenvoy extended the quiet reading mood, content that matches its own optimal reading conditions rather than fighting them is content that has been thoughtfully calibrated and this site reads as having a particular reading mood in mind throughout.
Granted I am giving this site more credit than I usually give new finds, and a look at gambithusk continued earning that credit, the calibration of how much trust to extend after limited exposure is something I do carefully and this site has earned more trust on shorter exposure than most due to consistent quality across.
Well done, the kind of post that makes you slow down and actually read instead of skimming for keywords, and a look at straitsalt kept me reading carefully too, that is a sign of writing that has been crafted rather than churned out for an algorithm to see today and tomorrow.
A clear cut above the usual noise on the subject, and a look at guavaflank only made that gap wider in my view, the kind of place that earns its visitors through quality rather than through aggressive marketing or sponsored placements which is increasingly the only way most sites stay afloat across the modern web.
A piece that read as if the writer was thinking carefully rather than just typing fluently, and a look at idleflint continued that considered quality, the difference between fluent typing and careful thinking shows up in writing and this site reads as the product of thought rather than just the product of language fluency apparently.
Reading this in pieces during a long afternoon and finding it consistently rewarding, and a stop at firhush fit naturally into the same fragmented reading pattern, sites whose posts can be read in segments without losing the thread are well suited to how I actually read these days and this one is built well.
Just want to say thank you for putting this together, posts like these make searching online actually worth it sometimes, and a quick look at gondoenvoy kept that going, useful and easy to read without any of the tricks that ruin most blog comment sections lately on the wider open web.
Found something quietly useful here that I expect to return to, and a stop at gambithusk added more of the same, content with quiet utility ages well in a way that flashy hot takes do not and I have learned to weight quiet utility much higher when deciding what to bookmark for later use.
Appreciate that you did not pad this with fluff to hit a word count, the post says what it needs to say and stops, and a look at straitsalt did the same, brevity here feels intentional not lazy which is a distinction many writers miss completely sometimes when they are working under deadlines.
