Kim
EMDAC January
Dylan’s first show! I’m very proud of him, he did far better than I expected him to. We were E’d in Power & Speed because they threw 12 weaves in and as Dylan has never done 12 upright weaves, I…
Sheffield Flyball
I love Sheffield tournaments. The Speeders are a great bunch of flyballers and they always run a good competition, with lovely rosettes and fast results. The venue is great, just a shame about the location. Three cars were broken into…
Agility Nuts
Finally back on form with Kim – EMDAC (Oct) and Wyre (Dec) were a bit down, just one 4th in the end despite a couple of good runs – but she decided to start 2008 with a bang. She came…

Agility Training
It’s been a frustrating couple of days with Dylan. I’ve been really happy with his contact work until now; he has been extremely good with the 2o/2o on the dogwalk, and his 4off for the Aframe has been working really…
Doncaster Flyball Tournament
Our first time at the famous indoor-turf Doncaster tournaments, and we had a fantastic day. Mollie’s team, Night Owlers, ran their socks off and finished a very respectable 3rd in Division 5, setting a new seed time in the process.…
EMDAC
We were back at EMDAC again this weekend for the first show in their Winter Series. Kim has been promoted this season to Primary in both agility and jumping, so this was our first show where we were running Primary…
