    Finally managed to get some decent video of Dylan weaving today! Took the jump and the weaves down to the park for 15 mins. Or for those of you who are able to view the videos via Windows Media Player (or equivalent), there’s a much more clean version here: http://www.undermybed.co.uk/images/dylanweaving001.wmv As always, Dylan is always…

  • A Mid-Life Crisis on Behalf of Kim

    I’m finally getting organised with all my show entries for the next couple of months. Shrewsbury entry went in a few weeks ago, and then this weekend I also sent in my EMDAC April and May entries, and my Waldridge Fell entry. The EMDAC July is almost ready to go, just debating on how long…

    Had a great session with all the dogs this morning! We were working over 6 jumps at the full 14″ for Mollie & Dylan, 12″ for Kim as she has to be awkward and be one of only 2 dogs who measure at 13″, and I don’t like running her over 14″, so she mixed…

  • Dogs on Top, March 1st

    Yesterday was definitely a day of extremes! I had six classes, four with Kim and two with Dylan. All the courses were reasonable – the Open Tunnel Vision was really tough and I’m so glad I didn’t enter Dyl! – but I thought all the others were either lovely or at least do-able. How wrong…

  • The 4-6 Sequence

    On reading the Obay Shelties blog I went and had a quick play with Kim outside on the 4-6 sequence, originally from the US World Team Tryout Course (2006). Now, we don’t have an Aframe, but I was aiming for a certain direction with her and so you’ll have to presume I was doing it…

  • High Peak Rosette 2003

    This is one of the many reasons why I love High Peak, and why I’m sad that I can’t make it this year. (Direct quote from my old Livejournal) 09th August 2005 My excitement knows no bounds. This morning, a mysteriously fat envelope, of the bubble-wrapped kind, arrived pour moi. Much puzzlement was mine as…

    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…

    Not much to say today, so I’ve also included the photo of Mollie doing her over-the-horizon look. As with all the photos on the blog, click for a bigger version. Dylan has been doing his bits of boxwork, it’s going reasonably well. We work for about 10 minutes a day, and then of course Kim…

    We had a pretty good session this morning, and the weather was fantastic for once! None of our dogs have flyballed since Sheffield, and Dylan hasn’t done anything since Dec 29th. Unfortunately it really showed today, for our first session all his boxwork just went completely out of the window. He did one nice turn…

    First show of the month! Katie was supposed to be coming with her hounds too but a couple of inches of snow and she bailed out. I have to admit at some points in the day I wish I’d stayed in bed too! First run of the day was Open Time Gamblers. Part of me…
