    It’s really very hot here right now. I hope it cools down a bit for the weekend, but the BBC are cheerfully informing us of all the nice sunny weather we have to look forward to. Really not great for Mollie! The weather seems to have induced all the dogs to blow their coats, so…

  • Kim has lost her Crazy

    We had a very disappointing weekend at Shrewsbury. Kim just wasn’t working and I’m actually pretty worried about her, she was very tired and quiet for the whole weekend. Anybody who knows Kim will attest to the fact that she’s a very noisy girl and likes to bark! But this weekend she was heading back…

  • An Essay Writing Diversion: Kim and Dylan

    I really should be writing my essays right now, especially because I entered Shrewsbury this weekend knowing full-well that my essays would be due in next week. Just another 3500 words to go … Dylan and I had a horrible training session yesterday. I was going to post about it in an attempt to try…

  • Flyball Training, a blog post too late!

    The blog post isn’t really too late, but I just forgot to post it yesterday! The girls ran well at flyball, although they were both very tired girlies when we got home. Mollie must have a secret drug store somewhere, she’s been off her head with loopyness this week and it showed at training. She…

    Arg, what a horrible weekend. It’s weekends like this that make me want to walk away and not bother any more! Kim Saturday didn’t start well, Kim was very flat in her Clockwork Tunnels and it basically got worse from there! We didn’t get a decent clear round until the last run of the day…

    I was going to try and write something about the dogs and what I’m hoping for over the weekend, but I realise I’ve already kind of covered that. So, photo post! As usual, click on the thumbnails to see a larger version.

    After all the chaos with Dylan’s box at Selby, I wasn’t entirely looking forward to training again! But (typical dog!) he was absolutely paw-perfect on his turns. Well, almost. 4/5 times he has a perfect swimmers turn, and then on the 5th run he does something entirely new and unexpected. It’s very frustrating! I now…

    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…

    Just two days to go until Dylan’s big flyball debut! It’s going to be really odd doing Starters again, Kim moved up to Sanctioned tournaments in 2005. Hopefully it will be a good experience for him. I’m confident that he knows what he’s doing and won’t be phased by the atmosphere, as he’s been going…

    Kim still isn’t back on form, but we suddenly realised today that she’s been carefully eating her kibble and not the little granules which are supposed to settle her stomach, and then Dylan goes in and hoovers up before we notice. Still, if she’s not going regularly again by tomorrow night she’s heading back to…
