Autumn Walk
Lovely day for a walk. Dylan thought so too! The girls kind of always wander off for a while when we start on a walk. Or at least, they do until I produce their most favourite toy ever, Snake! I gave it Dylan originally, but when you get a Mollie running towards you, the self-preservation…

Things I Learnt Today at Flyball
Dylan simply cannot flyball in ankle deep mud. He doesn’t go anywhere and falls over a lot. Mollie firmly believes that Jet drops her ball, even though Jet doesn’t. Jet cannot understand why Mollie is following her. You can’t throw balls past Dylan’s head on the runback and expect him to keep facing forwards. Kim…

Mollie's Ears
MollieBaldEars is back amongst us! She had a lovely time at the vets, she get’s spoilt rotten with cuddles whilst she’s there. Her ears are now all clean and shiny and sadly hairless, so she looks hilariously bad. Possibly as a result of being laughed at so much, she went missing (presumably escaped and roamed…

Kennel Club Flyball: A Change for the Better
The Kennel Club has just announced that they’re making a change from the “traditional” foot-pedal “Crufts Box” to the flat-fronted style used by the BFA. A bit of history first, I think. The British Flyball Association was formed in 1994 after a group proposed a change to the Kennel Club rules, for the introduction of…

Vet Trips, Fireworks Etc
Mollie is off to the vet tomorrow with what we think is an ear infection. She’s been walking around with lopsided ears for the past three days and although we initially thought she was just being odd (it’s very hard to tell with Mol) we now think she’s got something going on. She hasn’t been…

Aframe/Team Trios (2009)
After all the long discussions with various people on how to improve Dylan’s creepy Aframe contact, it seems that we’ve finally made some progress. As I said before, he’s had a break from working on the Aframe and so we came back this week and really attacked it. There was a big improvement! No creeping…

Rotherham Flyball: A Photo Diary
VIDEO: A Noise Sample from a Quiet Moment. Dylan’s team, Marsh Owlers, race. There are no spare hands to take photos! It’s a shambles anyway, we lose all three races. VIDEO: A Series of False Starts. Oops! VIDEO: The Eagle Owlers. VIDEO: The Marsh Owlers, on a slight return to form. But not really. VIDEO:…

BAA Promotion & Agility Training
Please excuse the unrelated Mollie photo, I love her paws and couldn’t resist including it! I’ve just noticed that the League Tables on the BAA Website have been updated! My application with Kim was obviously successful as Kim is currently 2nd in the Novice Medium Dog of the Year League, 8th in the Novice Agility…

Training Thoughts
I get such a kick out of running with Kim, we miss all our contacts and get everything wrong but it’s just fab, I love it. She has freaked herself out badly on our seesaw though, she had a crazy fly-off last week on her first run and then was a little cautious for the…
