    Hare'n'Hounds Valentines

    I seem to remember saying back in November that I wouldn’t run three dogs again. Well, I did, and it was better – either because I was prepared for the chaos, or because everything just ran more smoothly! Kim ran…

    Tailwaggers #4

    I still can’t muster any enthusiasm with hindsight for this show. I didn’t like the 2-runs-at-each-course format any better than I did 4 years ago when I last did it, it was still really boring. I’m not convinced it really…

    Tailwaggers #3

    I would quite like to just skip over recounting the morning classes, but I think it’s probably a good idea for me to try and remember exactly what I did wrong. Jet’s Primary Power and Speed was an ok course,…

    Wyre Agility

    Mission accomplished! I love Wyre. For whatever reason, this show just sings for me every year, and we have such a good time. I am fully prepared for next year to be a complete disappointment, but up until now, big…

    Start Lines

    [singlepic id=326 w=320 h=240 float=right]Inspired by HippieDogs, of course, and somewhat by my previous musings on whether to get a collar for Kim’s starts. I haven’t talked about my start lines in a long while. Kim has a running start,…

    Tailwaggers #1

    Dylan was a little bit more restrained at this show than the past few months, which was a little worrying initially but he was very relaxed throughout and ran well. Watching back his videos I’m not sure there was a…

    All Clear

    Dylan officially has the all-clear, as of yesterday, and so I’m looking forward to Tailwaggers tomorrow! It looks like the Novice Plus classes are going to be quite competitive, they’re double the size of last years so I’m just hoping…
