The Easter Egg Hunt (video + pics)

[wolf_Q]

Here's a belated Easter thread, I've had to work all weekend so I haven't had much time for PT. We did the annual dog easter egg hunt, this was Skya's first time and she caught on pretty fast. Of course if there's food involved it doesn't take much. As you can see Nebo and Keva are pros at this, they love it.

Here's a few pics (and husky commentary) from today too.

"Happy Easter..."

"Or as we like to call it, 'stupid-bunny-ears-on-your-head-day' "

"Whoa Skya you are looking way too happy wearing those, somebody might actually think you like them!"

"That's better! We have to look as pathetic as possible when being embarassed like this"

"Even better, no bunny ears!"

"Now we'll say HAPPY EASTER!"

The "Egg Hunt" video is a riot!
HOW did you train 'em not to either *crush* or *chew up* the plastic eggs,
and just eat the treat inside?

I kept trying to tell them 'Look UP - blue one - end of the couch - eye level!'

I didn't teach them....just showed them that the eggs contained treats. They are more interested in just popping the egg open and moving to the next one than chewing up the egg. We ended up with one cracked one so somebody chomped one a bit too hard. Keva will start chewing up the eggs after the "hunt" is over so I just have to pick them up after.

Yeah I kept waiting for one to find that one too...you'll notice Skya grabs it at the end.

That was awesome! Our dogs would destroy the eggs... Well At least Zeke would. And Eli would be like Skya, focused on just one the whole time.

The pictures are great too. I love how you always catch Nebo with his tongue sticking out. Thats hilarious.

Amy I just loved the video and the pictures. I meant to try this with my crew, but totally forgot

Much love to them all!

Love the pics. They look like they are laughing in the second one in the grass. They seem so well behaved looking for their eggs in the video. Thanks for the smiles.

The pictures and video of the Easter egg hunt are so cute.
I'm impressed that they just crack the eggs open for the treats and don't destroy the eggs, they sound pretty crunchy.

(Check your PM's, today is the day you need to get your U2 tickets!)

Oh, how cute! What a great job they did! We hid eggs for Jamine and Dominic and I was afraid before they got there the dogs would try to get them since they had candy in them. Amy's dogs were there too so I wasn't sure what to expect. But they were all well behaved and except for Taggert and Tucker let the egss alone. Taggert and Tucker each found one and were trying to get them open but backed off when I told them to leave it. A real miracle for both of them because they are very food oriented.

I never thought about putting treats for the dogs in them but I would probably have to break it up into groups or we might have a dog fight. Taggert can be very aggressive when food is involved. I am not sure Dazzi or Jack or Pippi would try to open them and Taggert would wreck the plastic shells trying to get them. Might be fun to try though.

I LOVE seeing the Huskies do their egg hunt. Skya seems to have gotten the hang of it.

Your three are just adorable... and so good at posing, even with bunny ears on. Po' Nebo looks beyond humiliated! teehee
