Wilmslow 2014
I am so glad I entered this show. Dylan had a great time; he was so excited and enthusiastic to be running, I can’t imagine a better retirement show for him. G6-7 Agility first thing was a nice course, nothing…
Evaluation
Ri did one and a half runs at Empingham, and then I quit for the weekend. She wasn’t focused, wasn’t working, and was going through a classic displacement and calming signals routine during her run(s). This blog is going to…
Empingham 2013
Rio is getting her own post about this show later! Dylan’s chiro treatment last week seems to have worked, because he was back to ‘normal’ this time! We weren’t particularly successful in terms of results, but he was working much…
NDDAC Osmaston 2013
I’ve been meaning to do this show for years, Osmaston is one of my favourite showgrounds for flyball! I’ll definitely try and go back again next year, it’s a really gorgeous show. Due to some weekend date swaps this year,…
Hare'n'Hounds Easter 2013
Coldest weekend ever. Possibly even colder than the Cold Easter of ’10, and that was also really damn cold. I could have entered 7 runs per day, but I chose to limit myself to 5. I am not fit enough…
Easter at Duncombe Park
Five runs a day on not-so-flat ground has killed me, I am going to have to get my running shoes on and do some training this summer as well. When I am not flailing around behind Dylan, I can actually…
Ribble March 2012
Resultswise, not such a good show. We didn’t bring home a single rosette. It also rained consistently. Apart from that, it was awesome. I entered Kim and Dylan, and didn’t know if Kim would want to play or if Dylan…
Otley
Running behind on this one. I’m always in two minds about this show, the show organisers are great and they always schedule good classes, but the venue is one of the worst I’ve been to. It’s really uneven and hilly,…
Hare'n'Hounds Valentines
I seem to remember saying back in November that I wouldn’t run three dogs again. Well, I did, and it was better – either because I was prepared for the chaos, or because everything just ran more smoothly! Kim ran…
Winter Agility Season
I know I’m lucky to have good, competitive shows at KC and BAA within travelling distance all year round. It’s got better and better every year, and this year I’m actually getting to pick and choose which shows we go…
