December Shows

We went to Agility Nuts a couple of weeks ago for Chaos to have his first ever run. He was such a good boy. He didn't really seem to like queing but once he got into the ring he relaxed and worked really well. Below is a video of his run.




Yesterday we went to Dog Vegas. All 3 dogs were running. Heidi was her usual wild self, her running A frame is really good though, it certainly suits her. Kody and Chaos only managed 1 run each as they had classes last in the ring and I needed to get back home. Kody got Eliminated as I got lost  (no change there!) and Chaos had his first clear round in the C1-4 Helter Skelter and finished 7th! He is such a good boy, im so excited for next season with him.

Show Catch Up

Last Saturday we went to Dog Vegas at Arena UK. I always forget how cold and muddy it is there! I actually only stayed until just after lunch but it was long enough for Heidi and Kody to have an agility and jumping run each. Kody had a clear in jumping and a couple of issues in the Agility but nothing major. Heidi had 2 poles in the jumping and a pole and took a wrong jump in the Agility class. Her running A Frame was fab though :)

Chaos was such a good boy walking around inside. I wasn't sure how he would be as he has never been inside for a show before but he was absolutely fine which was a bit of a relief! He took treats off a few people too and had a walk with his Friends Speedy, Jake and Leo.

On Sunday me and Kody went to an obedience show. It was the first time we had done an open show. I was so nervous! We did our Pre Beginner round and it wasn't a bad attempt, a couple of wide turns caused by me and he stepped off with me on his recall so lost marks there. His stays were clear though. We ended up finishing 10th out of 26 so not a terrible score. We did an ABC class which was a bit more of a training class but really useful. The judges in both classes said he is a very good dog that can do well, I just need to sort out my footwork as I get in a bit of a muddle! So lots of practice for me and we will enter another show in the new year.
