    Days like this remind me why I do flyball. I was pretty excited about Dylan’s team anyway, they’re a fab fast bunch of dogs who were on a very comfortable seed time, and both Dylan and Skye love running over 12″. Perfect conditions! Anyway, the last race against Marnicks was down to the wire stuff,…

    Dyl’s weave entries are improving at a rate of knots, so chuffed! It’s so nice to see the hard work paying off. No problems now with 90° angles, either side, and we’re working back to being fairly comfortable at 45° (better on the soft side, at the moment). He’s picking up weaves when flicking back…

    What a week … thank you for all the texts and emails that got back to me, I’m not sure how so many of you found out as I only told one person! But thank you very very much, it meant a lot to us. For those who don’t know, Kim scared me half to…

    Flyball at one of my favourite ever venues, walks on the beach and beautiful weather. Can’t ask for much more! Dylan and his best redhead girl Skye were up with the Barneys in Div 2, and we came 1st, just pipping the lovely Monsters gang, and most of the racing went to 5 legs so…

    The collies have both been ill this week, which has meant I haven’t had much time to post on the blog, however much I intended to! Dylan picked something up last week and we thought it was his unfortunate eating habits (a towel, this time!) but since Mollie came down with it too, it seems…

    New layout for undermybed.co.uk – I like it. Do you? Things we did this weekend. We played training games. We played cage balls. We played football. We also visited Castle Hill, and whilst the dogs were in the car, I took the opportunity to actually go up the Tower. The Tower isn’t open very often…

    Dylan got his automatic promotion to Primary in Agility and Jumping, finishing 5th* in both the Agility and Jumping Leagues and 4th in the Introductory Maxi Dog of the Year League (661pts). Kim was 7th in the Novice Medium Dog of the Year League (954pts) and has not got promoted in anything, thankfully. She was…

    Kim has always liked to do things in style, and so she came 3rd in the Novice Plus Agility first thing on Monday morning and did a gorgeous running dogwalk contact for me. Dylan and I had a much better start to the day; Dyl came 4th in Introductory Jumping on a very fast blast…

    We had a rough start to the day when Dylan blew all his contacts in the Introductory Agility. He did hit them all, but he refused to wait and over-ran on everything. I wouldn’t have been too worried if he’d been going superfast but he wasn’t. Thankfully Emma and Bailey proved that we do actually…
