Cornwall/Dartmoor Show 24-25/04

The course from hell - it was certainly not a grade 1-2 but Dylan managed a clear and was placed 3rd. Taz was quite spectacular going into washing maching mode - a spin cycle around 2 jumps; he must have completed them at least 3 times and was on his way for his 4th before I said 'just stop!' He looked at me with a look of pure glee on his face as he was having the best time ever! I smoothed him to calm him and then continued on our way. Oh he is such fun to run!!! No results for Taz this weekend but as I said earlier a 3rd for Dyl in the agility and also an 8th in the jumping.

Kernow K9

My first ever results at a KC show. Taz was a very good boy and things are looking a lot brighter for him. His first 2 rounds were very good; he weaved in both and only knocked 1 pole (in the agility). The jumping round was a little messy though - the weaves were obstacle 4 and Taz tried to do them again on the run home. I think this is because I have done sooo much weaving with him over the winter. Our little detour cost us a lot of time but he still managed an 8th. Pole knocking got worse as the weekend went on so back to grids for him.

Dyl had a very very good weekend. All 3 of his agility rounds were good - knocked 1 pole in the first one, broke his stay in the 2nd one, so I took him back and made him start again which got us e'd but he then went on to have the most beautiful round, and in the 3rd agility run; he just missed the A frame cos he jumped long however the rest was stunning. In the jumping he got a 6th, we had a bit of a spin and 1st in another run. I am very pleased with both of them. The future is looking good.
