olympia

Huge well done to everyone that qualified for Olympia have been watching on tele but was there on Thursday supporting Amy .. unfortunately she had the first pole down in both classes how unlucky!! I was also gutted for Toni and Minx!

Smalls: found myself screaming at the tele when Wendy was running daddy Dexter was watching and cheering on his little scout man.

Big dogs: was gutted Alan didn’t make the final but well done to everyone else who did what an interesting final! i was very happy to see that Lucy Osborne had qualified so was cheering her on! And a big well done to Toni and minx and Dave and Dobby what a stunning round!
Really looking forward to see tonight’s as there are some VERY good dogs so should also make an interesting final .Good luck everyone!

Good luck to everyone in the ABC on mon.

little update

<<<>Oh my god I can’t believe how much juice has grown since she came home. I was looking through and ORGANISING my photos and I never realised how small she really was. She was doing her usual rounds were she sees the cat goes up to him with the wiggliest wiggliest bum, but I'm sure that yesterday she was considerably smaller than him yet today she is nearly the same size as him.



Watching olympia ^^ hmm!

awww!
Have done some training with her she now does a beautiful down and sit she waves both paws. I have started doing her targets to piece of carpet as I am considering target training her dw and maybe having a running a frame :S I am not sure yet though. Will have to do some more research as if I do I want to make sure I get it right!
Mmm Chox it feels like we have gone backwards again with his weaves so I will go back to channels over the winter to get his confidence back up again. He so sensitive to me and get really worried if he THIKS he’s got it wrong but I don’t know what has triggered him to be unsure his time. :S

hmm lovely walks !!

As I have been reading about everyone’s lovely walks I’d like to show you the lovely walk I had today and how it ended
I thought as it hadn’t rained for two days the field I normally walk them in wouldn’t be too bad
HOW WRONG COULD I BE !!
I have to say these pics really don’t show how dirty she was



Mind you kiss is constantly getting dirty she only has to look at a puddle to get dirty whereas the other 2 stay fairly clean.
My little juice is a little star been doing little bits with her she is such a character.. she is so cute . She loves Dexter although I think he is getting tired of her. He did play with her for an hour last night ill try and upload the short vid I got of them.
The dogs were very good at rugby I was rubbish I called Chox off of two jumps in his ag. (bad timing) he was clear in jumping. Dexter was a little bit naughty in his ag and released himself of the dw I didn’t stop him I really should of but I made a point of making him stop on the a-frame and he still didn’t think he should bad dog lolol. In the jumping he just had a poll

I have been very lazy and now it’s biting back as I have loads to write!
Juice is still as lovely and naughty as ever and terrorising Dexter and Chox! Must get some more pics of her !

Last sat. We were at barking mad I was a bit emotional as it was the anniversary of my dad’s death. But Chox cheered me up he was amazing I was so gob smacked. He is doing everything I ask of him. Whereas with Dexter it can be a bit of a fight Chox feels so smooth and tight and generally it’s my timing when it goes wrong as it is so different to Dexter, and Dexter decides if he’s listening and I can tell him as he takes off or if he’s in tank mode and you have to tell him a stride before and it’s very hard to know. It feels like Chox and I are really coming together I have to admit I didn’t think he was going to be very fast but would have the turns on his side but he is proving me wrong in his own time and he is becoming exactly what I wanted . I just love him!

The weekend before that we were training and Chox did the most amazing set of weaves so I did two sets and didn’t do another set.

Wednesday..
I had half the day off so decided to do some training and gave someone who trains with us a lesson(Sam and her working black lab fazer- fazer is half a collie in disguise I sure lol she and Senna have been trained together from a puppy she has such talent! ). I set up a jumping exercises that was big and spread out to get her to trust and working on getting the most out of Fazer. She was sooo good I was buzzing after the lesson. Then Sam got her young working cocker out (Daime) he was a little star and was sending out so well. I was so satisfied and happy
In the evening we had our Christmas do (upanover/cloudtenn) it was really nice to see everyone and talk doggies most of the evening. However I progressively started to feel ill and woke up feeling so rough.. and still do !!

Of to Rugby x-mas show this weekend I am really looking forward to it I love Rugby its such a lovely fun show .. I’m off to have a hot cup of tea!
