Dylan
North of the Wall
K and I headed up north on Friday to train with Cat. We’ve been talking about venturing up to do a little flyball training for ages, so we did! I took Dylan and Rio, although Ri was an afterthought. She…
UKA Dig It May 2013
Really went to this show for Dylan to practise running on rubber surfaced contacts. Dig It have Contactacoat sprinkles on their equipment and it is actually looking wrecked right now. Dig It either need to re-cover or buy some new…
A Quiet May
May is usually my extremely busy flyball month, so of course this year I forgot to get my act in gear and actually enter any agility shows. I’m taking Dylan to UKA Dig It this weekend, mainly to support some…
Dogwalks and Tunnels
We did lots of dogwalk work at training this week! I had three things to work on in our classes; dogwalk, weaves, and long-jump. For our dogwalk training, I planned a similar set up to his very bad run at…
Lincoln 2013
Haven’t done this show in a while. Kim won out of G1 here back in 2007, and last time we competed there Dylan was G3. It’s still nice, such a lovely showground, and it was the EO qualifying weekend which…
Army of Two
Happy 7th Birthday Dylan! It might have taken me seven years to get here, but I suddenly see my strange little Border Collie. I haven’t always had the best relationship with Dylan; althought I’ve always loved him, because he’s endearing…
UKA D5 Agility
I say this every time, but I really hate Winterton Showground. It’s beautiful and flat and has such nice well kept grounds to run on, but it’s always blowing a gale. ALWAYS. I seriously considered pulling Dylan from a couple…
Gundog Day
I don’t have a gundog breed (have you noticed?) and much as I like Labradors and Spaniels, I don’t think I’d ever consider owning one. Just not my cup of tea! But the opportunity came up to go on a…
Hare'n'Hounds Easter 2013
Coldest weekend ever. Possibly even colder than the Cold Easter of ’10, and that was also really damn cold. I could have entered 7 runs per day, but I chose to limit myself to 5. I am not fit enough…
Snow and More Snow
SNOW! Thankfully this was a quiet weekend; I didn’t enter Wyre Champ at Myerscough as I thought doing 5 days of agility in the space of a week was a bit much after 3 months off. Not sure we would…
