May/June

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 12 runs (one a Lucky Dip Pair) and came away with a rosette in 11 of those runs).

May: Wow, what a weekend! Sometimes I don’t appreciate how much of a truly multi-talented dog Kim is, but she certainly reminded me! We were at EMDAC on Saturday where she came 7th in Power and Speed, and 11th in Jumping (both at Introductory level) in very competitive classes – and she hasn’t been training for three weeks! On Sunday we were at Sutton Fields flyballing, where our team came home with a 2nd place and Kim and Poppy won the ABC Pairs! We also collected our FDA (Flyball Dog Advanced) award, finally, and Kim gained plenty of points towards the next one!

P.S. Thank you to the people at all the EMDAC’s who either commented on my website (I had no idea so many people visited!) or commented on how much Kim looked to be enjoying herself. It’s so nice to hear!
