I can't quite believe what is happening at the moment. We have just had our first grade 3 show and I must admit to being quite nervous about it. When I watch Pat with her 2 dogs and Dan with Magic I find it hard to think that Dyl is anywhere near as good as they are but he continues to prove me wrong. He only went and won the agility putting us into grade 4 - and he did it at his first grade 3 show!!! I know I said that I wasn't going to stay in grade 3 (as I was quite prepared to move up on points if necessary) but I didn't think it would be this brief. This is of course the icing on the cake but there is more which is leaving me gobsmacked!!! Taz is improving no end. He is not knocking so many poles and weaves are now sometimes a possibility for him. In fact this weekend I stuck him in the weaves and went off in the opposite direction. His weaves were perfection and totally independant, I am really enjoying him again. Perhaps there is a slight possiblity that even he may progress to the next grade one day, but do you know what? I don't really care, I am having such fun with him and that's all that really matters.
This weekend: great dogs, great company, great result - what more could I ask for - THANK YOU xxxxx
