Dylan
Wilmslow
No training this week because snow. January. Coldness. Snow. Disappointing. Trekked all the way across to Myerscough for 2 Jumping classes and an Anysize run for Dylan. C1-7 Jumping P1 was A+ for good use of space, lots of running…
2015
I have no idea where this year will take us. I know what I want, and that’s to compete again. We’ve been in training mode for two years, in agility and flyball, focusing on criteria and improving performance in different…
A Final Glance
One last look back at 2014, mainly to wave goodbye. It had it’s moments, but it’s wasn’t much of a landmark year for the us. It was certainly unpredictable. I don’t yet know whether that’s good or bad.Dylan has stepped…

Wilmslow 2014

Rolling On
Everything has started again for 2014; we’ve been back to agility training and done two flyball sessions now. Dylan and I also went on a Maintaining the Canine Athlete workshop with Veterinary Physiotherapist Hannah Michael, which was excellent. Would highly…
December Flurries
I wrote my last post in haiku, and I make no apologies. Dyl and I had a good time at Wyre, we always do. I said Wyre would be the last one, but I’m going to enter Wilmslow as well.…
