I didn't really have time to update our blog again during September, it just seems to have flown by. The weekend after Agility Nuts we went to Southam, I have got mixed feelings on this show, nice venue (but a very long drive from the road) but it didn't seem to have much of an atmosphere as such. I think maybe the poor weather didn't help and it did seem like a long way to go just to run 1 dog (and she was nuts!)
The next weekend was Bromsgrove. It took us 3 hours to get there but I have to say I think its one of my favourite shows so worth the trip and id go again. We watched the Pro Plan finals on the Saturday which was really good to watch. I noticed a big change in Chaos this weekend, he was suddenly confident walking round the rings and was happy to meet other dogs in the exercise area (and try and go off with a few!). He met up with his brothers Basil and Bullet on the Sunday (in the pictures) and they all got on great again and enjoyed a good run around together.
This weekend we had a long weekend at Dog Vegas at Southwell Racecourse. I have to say it is my least favourite of Dog Vegas shows, I really wasn't that keen on the venue, I'm not sure i'd do it again. That said, the weather was lovely for the whole 4 days and I did manage to get out on some walks with Brian, Brenda and Chaos.
Over the 3 weeks Kody has managed a couple of clears and a few good attempts but we have also had some pretty terrible runs where it all just went wrong. Heidi must have had 10 runs (at least) with just 1 pole down (very frustrating) but she too has had a fair amount of runs where she has been taken out of the ring for just being wild!
For us the season is now over and we will be getting on with some training fairly soon. I have a week off this week so hopefully will get a bit started. We are going to do a show a month over the winter just to keep us going and keep Chaos out and about as he is 18 months in December so will be running from the start of next season. How exciting!!!!
