2016 so far...

I was determined to keep our blog up to date a bit more this year, so far I've failed miserably! At the start of February I took Bridget to a companion show a few miles away to get in a bit of Crufts practice in. She was a good girl, each class had a different Judge so she got to have several different people go over her which is all good experience. In the Pedigree puppy class she got 3rd out of 6 puppies, in the Pedigree open class she was 2nd out of 16 dogs and in the Best Short Coated dog she was 2nd again out of about 14 dogs! She was such a good girl, loved meeting people and she stands really well. We are still having a battle with her tail, she keeps it lovely and low when she stands but when she moves its up and curly! I'm still training it but im not sure if will be sorted by Crufts as its not only 2 weeks away.

Yesterday I went to RVA show up in Cambridgeshire. It was really nice to be back at a show again and im looking forward to the start of the season. Heidi had a couple of nice runs with either a pole or a naughty tunnel but she also had a couple of naughty runs with broken waits! I think she will always be the same! Chaos did well, the G4-5 courses were quite tricky but he managed a 6th in the Jumping and we got all the way around the Agility but he ran past the last jump! He really wasn't keen on being indoors but h did get better as the day went on, im hoping once we get outside he will be a bit more relaxed as his winter training has gone so well and he is so confident in the field.
