    I haven’t had many flyball updates on the blog yet, we had a bit of a break through September. Kim and Mollie were both running in the ‘Owlers second team, drawn as bottom seed in Division 2. I generally don’t mind being bottom seed, especially if the Divisions are well seeded, because I think racing…

    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…

    Kim and I had an amazing weekend at Lincoln’s 30th Anniversary show, even if we didn’t start off very well! In the first class, I was handling ok but Kim wasn’t switched on, and in the second class Kim was completely switched on and I was terrible! I’m still a bit disappointed in myself on…

    We got back yesterday from Melton Mowbray and our first visit to the BAA Finals. It was a very up-and-down weekend but we had a great time. Kim is officially the BAA Introductory Medium Dog of the Year 2006/07 — she has been leading since last October and her only real challenger this summer was…

    Kim and Mollie were competing in the BFA Summer Championships this weekend, and their team, Barking Owlers, won Division 8 with a time of 19.82! Due to the seeding we ended up racing against the teams we usually see at tournaments rather than those from further afield, but we had some great racing anyway against…

    Kim injured herself earlier this week and went lame, with just 5 days to go until the Flyball Summer Championships. Luckily it wasn’t serious, just a strain in her shoulder, and she’s been on lead-walks and rest since it happened. Unfortunately it did mean she had to miss training last night, (which didn’t go down…

    To the readers of the agility magazine “Agility Eye” (http://www.agilityeye.co.uk), you may be interested to note that this month’s issue features a cover designed and made by yours truly. For those of you who don’t subscribe, the original version is there on the left. Sadly it doesn’t feature any of my own dogs because at…

    I have finally got around to upgrading my account at streamline, and therefore have also started up a blog on the main website. I will still have my account at LiveJournal (http://moderately-lea.livejournal.com) but it makes as much sense to have a blog here. I’m going to try and keep this blog related to the site…

    We had a lovely, long 4 days at EMDAC last week, and Kim was a superstar and won another agility class and got a handful of placings in some others, I was thrilled to bits! She’s now top of the Agility League, the Jumping League and the Intro Medium DOTY League. She also managed to…

    June: June was an amazing month for Kim. We’ve never been got a top-3 placing before and then suddenly she went and got 6! Her total haul of trophies and rosettes was fantastic, and eventually totalled 1x1st, 1x2nd, 4x3rd, and all her other clear runs got her a top-10 placing. (We did a total of…
