    This is the first time we’ve walked Langsett. We’ll be back again, I now understand why it’s so popular! We walked the three mile route as we didn’t know the area at all and didn’t want to get lost. The map in the car park said it would take 2hrs and we were a little…

    Excellent flyball training this past weekend, all the dogs worked extremely hard. Dylan still isn’t comfortable running with Norah but she’s not in his team this weekend so I am hopeful that he’ll be relaxed and happy about being in the ring. Our official complaint to the BFA regarding the incident at Swallownest has been…

    We had fun with weaves at training this week. He did so well on the Wicked Weaves course at the weekend, but there were no really difficult entries and I was able to stay with him the whole time, but it reminded me that we did need to work a bit more on our weaves!…

    Saturday was flyball day, as per usual for this weekend. We only had two teams in but both were 6-dog teams, which I hate, but as we had some dogs coming back from injury etc it was really the only option. Kim and Mollie both ran very well, Kim back to her usual self and…

    I love Wednesday training at the moment. Only a handful of us can make it mid-week but it gives us chance to work on things that we don’t have time for otherwise. Dylan looks amazing at the moment, I’m so relieved that he has remained happy and positive about flyball. His boxturns were great this…

    Very humid at training this week. Always intended this week to be an “easy” week, confidence boosting for dogs and handlers. We did short, easy sequences (6-8 obstacles) on a one-shot basis (you get one go, and then on to the next sequence). This is brilliant for G1-3 dogs, or for G5 dogs who need…

    Restless Energy Originally uploaded by kayanem This tournament didn’t go to plan. There was an incident in our first leg of our first race of the day brought about by another dog. Dylan was unharmed (which I still can’t believe, I have to go and keep checking him over even now) and my mum badly…

    Reviewing videos, over and over again. Finding things to be happy about, wanting to share the joy. Be prepared for screen caps. Jumping. See that relaxed tuck position? That makes me happy. See that one too?

    Flyball training last night went well, we do a bit less on Wednesdays and just focus on running the dogs together as a team. We have Dylan and Kim in the same team this weekend again. Mum has been running Kim and I’ve been running Dyl up until now because Dylan wouldn’t run for anyone…
