AgilityBuds

This week we have got loads done outside in the garden with the weather being nice. Conor finally got the remainder of the apple tree down today so our garden is nice and light. Just loads of branches lying around now so we are going to get a skip next week.

We had a visit today from my nan & grandad which was nice, they are on holiday in Mablethorpe so they came up for a visit as they haven't seen this house.

Conor & Heidi have headed off to Somerset this evening to do the last 2 modules of his Agility Instructors course so it's just me Bri & Meg. Tomorrow we are going on a trip of our own though to my mum & dads until Saturday or Sunday as it was mums birthday today, Happy Birthday mum!

Tonight we had our first agility lesson at AgilityBuds and it was really good. Meg went first and she was quite shy and very aware of everything going on around her but I'm sure she will settle in a few weeks. All the other dogs in her class are a bit further on than her and can link obstacles together but we have only so far done individual items, by the end of the class though I did have her jumping 3 jumps in a left hand circle so not bad for a first lesson.

Brian really enjoyed his class, my handling was very rusty but it was good to get some instruction as we haven't been to a training class together in months. He did make me out to be a liar though (not like Brian!) he 'normally' has see-saw phobia and either refuses to do it or jumps off mid air so i warned Lucy first and she said she would help him but then he did it ok by himself 3 times. Little monkey.

Megan is going on a Puppy Workshop with Lucy in October and so is Natalie & Reno so I'm really looking forward to that and it wont be that long now!
