    Chase

    Kim believes in kicking my ass when we’re doing these chase-the-handler flyball runs. [singlepic id=339 w=320 h=240 float=none] It was a little too slippy underfoot for major improvements, but still some good stuff from Kim and Dylan. Dylan has started…

    All Clear

    Dylan officially has the all-clear, as of yesterday, and so I’m looking forward to Tailwaggers tomorrow! It looks like the Novice Plus classes are going to be quite competitive, they’re double the size of last years so I’m just hoping…

    Misdiagnosis?

    After arming the household with honey, contacting all relevant parties to warn them of our quarantine and then resigning myself to a boring month ahead, all my dogs have resolutely NOT coughed, hacked, spluttered, snorted or sneezed for two days…

    Where we are now

    I should have known that trying to lay any kind of plans for the next 6 months would end in disaster! It appears that Dylan has come down with Kennel Cough** which means we won’t be competing again until after…

    Digley

    We had a lovely walk around Digley Resevoir on Sunday, couldn’t believe it was March, I was walking in my t-shirt! [singlepic id=69 w=320 h=240 float=center] The dogs ambled (and sprinted, and swum!) their way around, they’ve been so many…

    Paws and Toes

    I posted on twitter a couple of days ago about Kim trotting – or limping, actually! – off to the vets. I didn’t have chance to post a proper update, but since people have asked, here we go! Kim has…

    String Theories

    Dyl’s weave entries are improving at a rate of knots, so chuffed! It’s so nice to see the hard work paying off. No problems now with 90° angles, either side, and we’re working back to being fairly comfortable at 45°…

    Sad, Sick, Puppies (Again)

    What a week … thank you for all the texts and emails that got back to me, I’m not sure how so many of you found out as I only told one person! But thank you very very much, it…
