    No flyball training, no competitions, but we have to do something on a weekend. So we hit a section of the Kirklees Way which is very familiar to me and dad, but not so much to the dogs. We used to walk it a lot with the extended family when I was little; it’s nice…

    Doncaster hold their winter tournament at the Northern Racing College, and I’ve been to this venue plenty of times, but I’ve never seen any Thoroughbreds until this weekend. They didn’t seem all that bothered with us, to be honest. Bit of a disasterous start to the day, when we arrived at 8:15 and found out…

    I’m in love with this camera, it’s amazing. I am trying to remain objective and thoroughly test drive it this week, but I love it too much already! For those who don’t know, I eventually bought the Pentax K-x, and all of the photos in this post were taken with the kit lens (18-55mm). The…

    Love the Sheffield tournaments, they’re a friendly bunch. Kim and Mollie were both in the same team, and they were storming all day. Mollie’s haircut apparently made a difference, she was particularly crazy! Kim was running anchor and she gets hilariously competitive. You’ve not seen a competitive dog until you’ve seen Kim coming over the…

    So maybe showbiz is a bit optimistic, but Mollie did go for her first ever grooming today. We do brush her regularly, but she has issues with her skirts and belly being touched. It’s possible to give her a light once over, but any serious brushing and she gets very upset. We can normally keep…

    The dogs had a blast this weekend on the moors. We have to walk past the derelict mill first though, the graveyard of dead footballs. We found four this weekend. It is rough under those paws, but the broken glass and dangerous spots are confined to the far corners, so the dogs can play. The…

    Dylan has a super cute quirk of resting his head on things. His head is the perfect height for resting on people’s laps, so he does that all the time, and looks up at you with big sad puppy eyes. This usually means he wants a cuddle. However, he also rests his head on other…

    Fireworks season is hitting it’s stride! We were pretty lucky over the weekend and didn’t get too many, but they started tonight when we were on our evening walk. Kim hit the deck and then set off sprinting for home. She used hone in on whoever was closest and try and hide under their feet,…

    Stocksbridge on Saturday, and it seems like such a long time since we lasted visited this tournament. I suppose it is a long time, actually. Stocksbridge is always the tournament that marks the start of the winter season, because it’s cold and you arrive and leave in the dark. I’m perhaps a bit weird, and…
