High Peak

This weekend we were at High Peak Show in Bakewell. It was a lovely venue and apart from the weather was a lovely show too. (Good job as we are there for the next 2 weekends!)

The dogs tried hard this weekend but lots of bad handling by me let us down and we had some weave issues too.

Megan did have 1 clear which she saved for her run in the team dash with her brothers. It was brilliant fun and we are all excited to be doing it again next week! Megan had a very naughty agility run yesterday where she really just messed around and did her own thing but her main problem this week has been weaves from a straight on entry, she just isnt steadying herself enough so she gets the entry but then pops out so thats our thing to practice this week. (I guess a fault of practicing so many difficult entries and not many straight on ones)

Heidi was a good girl in all but 1 class where I ended up taking her out of the ring. After that she did have some nice runs, her common error this weekend was 3 poles but im sure a lot of that was down to me. Her run in the Adams derby qualifier was nice, she completed all her contacts and actually got to move onto the jumping so I was really chuffed but where the jumps were so very tightly placed she had 3 poles down.

Kody has continued to try hard too, we had a really horrid agility course on Saturday and got E'd by the 4th obstacle. He did have a nice agility run yesterday knocking a pole and I tried to rear cross his weaves which pulled him out (our homework this week!)

Brian spent most of his time hanging out in the caravan as it was raining alot although he did enjoy some walks, a cuddle with Jackie and a treat or two from the Pawstrading stand :)

Well done in the Team Dash, it was lovely to judge your team - they really are beautiful dogs.
