We had a nice flyball session this morning!<\/p>\n
Kim has grazed both her hocks, so I’ll have to start wrapping them up when she’s working on hard ground. I’ve used pad protectors on her front legs for ages but she’s always had a habit of skidding on her hocks and coming home with huge grass-stains. Today she has added to the grass stains with two big scabby patches, so the wrap is coming out!<\/p>\n
Mollie was as crazy as normal, she’s running with Bailey in Nights at Tabley so they make enough noise for the whole team! Katie<\/a> had to step in and run her for a couple of legs which I’m sure she must have been thrilled about. Mollie is always a challenge to run but at least Katie is used to the pulling after running Jetly!<\/p>\n Dylan’s first session was cracking, only a couple of mistakes and he was turning lovely off the box. Unfortunately the turn didn’t last when he did his second session, working in a team, and I pulled him out after a couple of runs. I wasn’t prepared to take up team practise time with boxwork. The only thing different was the boxloader, but that’s something he has to get used to, and running somewhere other than first, but again, something he has to get used to. It’s very frustrating because he can run up and down all day, he’s not too shabby with changeovers and he can be reasonably quick when he wants to be! Just his box letting us down, but we’ll keep working on it.<\/p>\n We have such a busy June ahead, 4 flyball tournaments starting with Tabley next weekend. Dylan isn’t running at the first two, so that gives us some more time to work on his box. Still no points up from Middlesbrough but I’ve got my fingers crossed, hopefully Kim will be at 9000+ plus at the end of June which will mean she’s only 1000 points away from her Silver Award. I never thought we’d reached Advanced, but we did, and now she has nearly gained double that in the past 18months. Definitely proof that the move to Owlers<\/a> was a good one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We had a nice flyball session this morning!
