...who chucked that up there!!!

2011 is off to a great start!
We've been doing lots and lots of extra training, both with guest trainers at Pingy and Kate, also extra sessions in Halifax at White Rose with Jette and Flynn is starting to come on really well too, slowly but surely, with Brenda, Wendy and Janice.
Jette is really enjoying the racey style of training, she's so focused and driven, she was squealing to get into the weaves last week, really smiling and going forward, lovely to see. Training at the moment is so enjoyable I hope it tranfers over to shows and my nerves don't get so much in the way.
Flynn actually shaped through the tyre, he doesn't hold his back legs like Jette, and attempts to bascule rather than bank the obstacle so that's something positive to work with and build on, good boy Flynn!!!
Also great news on the car front, a new dogmobile has been located and bought so that's such fantastic news after a long search.

Meanwhile at Cannon Hall this weekend, who threw Flynn's agility toy in the tree.....!!!

...it wasn't me!!!

...not me either!!

...ooooh not me mate, I think it was her!!

....to Wilmslow and back...again!

Flynn would like to say he's getting all growed up now....

Jette: well I ate something I shouldn't have so mum was a bit concerned over taking me for a day out to Wilmslow show on Saturday, but she needn't have been worried as I had an absolute ball!!! wow did I have fun, positively zooooooomed around, got my contacts and got my weaves, zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom!!!! Mum said something about the timer not working so we had to do it again, still had fun but I got very giddy in the weaves as well so not as good a run as the first...although I thought it was bloomin' stonkin'!!! In the jumping I was extra wizzy and wizzed over that left jump not this left jump but after that really really wizzed hoooooray!!!
I want to let Mawgan know the contacts don't burn if they are painted yellow!!

Mum took the 'boy' Flynn training on Wednesday and said he was good, I got my own day training at Pingy outside on Saturday and that was good as well, so good start all round :-)

Mum: What was extra nice though was to meet up with chums, Kirsty and Maisie had lovely runs and a place, Gill found a 'running contact' ha ha and we finally met up with Mary with the gorgeous Breeze who is just beeeeeautiful!! Jette had a walk down the canal with Billy too which was peaceful and lovely.

We've had awful weather again, the lane was snowed over and even the gritter got stuck. another car crashed into the corner (again!!) and the post lady had to reverse her van all the way back up the lane so she could get out as the gritter man had blocked the road, total chaos!!
