    Saturday was very hectic. Much like last year I knew we were going to have to leave early and I really didn’t want to miss Kim’s agility classes again. To be honest, it would have probably been a faster journey to Lune Valley at Myerscough and therefore I could have stayed later, but I really…

    Mollie and Dylan ran on Saturday with the Night Owlers in Division 8. We’ve got quite a nice little Nights team shaping up there! We ran 20.98, won our division and Dylan got his 200 points, I’m so pleased! He ran in nearly every leg and was a little pro. Some of his turns in…

    I thought Jet was due a birthday post all of her own, because she is to Katie what Kim is to me so I know what a special girl she is for her mum. When Jet was a couple of months old she got a very serious disease and nearly died, and although nobody could…

  • A Walk on the Canal

    Thanks to Emma for the photos (click to see a larger version). The dogs did not swim in the canal but in the river that runs alongside it for a couple of miles. The river has a lot of iron oxide in the soil, hence the apparent reddish tinge to the water; the water is…

    The dogs and I had fun playing out in the garden yesterday morning, when it was still sunny. It’s looking a bit nicer now, there is just one patch left that needs weeding as the rest got turned over at the weekend. Kim and I had a bit of a photo shoot as I really…

    Well, I’ve never flyballed in the snow before. Barking Owlers came 2nd in their Division, although to be honest we really didn’t expect to. The Beardies came into season this week and had to drop out, so we were left with four competitive dogs, plus Chewy. On the day, we also lost one of our…

  • Dylan & Jet at Sunday Training

    Bit of a late update about Sunday! Dylan and Jet both worked really well. The course was the Combined 1-3 Tuffstuff Qualifier [eta: I stand corrected, it’s either the Small and/or Medium Combined 1-3 Agility] from Newton Heath, which we didn’t go to but some of the people in our class had. I’ve drawn it…

    Another good training session this morning! Last week Dylan’s boxwork completely disintegrated. We had one of the boxes at home and I’ve been doing 5-10 minutes a day with him (and Mollie, because she loves anything flyball related and it certainly won’t make her box any worse!) which has been going really well. When we…

    Another KC show! Even I can’t resist the siren song for too long … that, or there aren’t any BAA shows on during September/early October. Either way, we had a fantastic time, with only one complaint on my part and I’ll get to that in a minute! I had Kim with me (of course!) but…

    It’s been a hot couple of days! I got the shell out for the dogs to chill in, because both the girls love to lounge in it when they’ve been out for a long hot walk. This is the first year that Dylan has really been old enough to play in it, and didn’t he…
