mum: well what a great time we've been having! Flynn possibly wouldn't agree after losing his wobbliness but he enjoyed last week as I was home to look after him and he loved the extra company, was a very different dog to the one who normally pogos at me when I get home. Got lovely Flynn cuddles too :-) down side was I painted 3 ceilings....
Jette has been on fine form of late, she's really loving her jumping and positively dragging me to the rings (then dragging me back to the car after for pigs ear!!)
After her jumping win at H&H we managed 2nd in Combined 1/2 Agility at HATS on Sunday which was another super-fab result, just a shame I had to shout so much to get her contacts, not a handling style I'm particularly proud of, nor one I like to see in others either...so gobby was I people could hear me the other end of the arena ha ha!!
This weekend we're trying the Alistair Bray training day at Pingy Agility in Sheffield so I'm hoping I can pick up some tips for the contacts, don't want to be shouting....
I hear Alistair uses an Aframe stride regulator so will be very interested to see if we can get Jette adjusting her down stride.
...watch this space!!
It's been so nice to have some good company at shows as well and others are having equally fab results!! Tim managed 3rd in Agility at H&H!!!!! Whoop, whoop!!!!
HRH Maisie came away with her usual clutch of placed rosies too and both dogs did well at HATS.
Sara and Tilly got 2nd in Jumping, Helen S got 3rd and 4th plus a jumping place and Helen J's new girl 'Legs' Belle won the Jumping at Delinquent Dogz so everyone seems to be finishing the year with some fantastic results (despite bonfire night and the dreaded fireworks). So well done to everyone :-) In the higher grades Wendy and Brenda have had some good runs as well and Suzanne must need a trophy cabinet now for Millie's anysize wins this year ha ha!!! Need to look out for shows for Claire with Bella as they've only got NAWS down for the winter.
Flynn can start relaxing, his stitches are coming out on Friday paws all crossed, it's been a long 10 days of lead walks for him but will take him somewhere nice for a hoolie :-)
