Today we have been to Dog Vegas and had a brilliant time. All 3 dogs were running and we had lots of positives to take away with us. Brian decided to remind me that he doesnt get clear rounds all the time, getting 2 out of 5. His faulted runs were due to a person sitting in the corner of the ring on a chair so he went to say hello!
.
So, Heidi. Heidi did not particularly like people a year ago, or crowds or other dogs or venues, tannoys and loud noises. At that time we made a plan, she has trained at lots of different clubs to learn to socialise and associate equipment with fun not the environment around her. We have travelled long distances sometimes as far as Bristol from Lincolnshire to train with Mike and Claire Bacon at Diamond Dog Training. We have been to competitions and not taken part just sat at the side. She has had a good break from club training to allow her to mature and grow into her self and is now enjoying training at Agility Buds with Lucy Osbourne, all of this was not only necessary but worthwhile and today, the plan came together.
Heidi got her first ever clear round today which was fantastic, the video below explains all...
Megan had her first ever runs today too, she did well in parts and I was very pleased with her, getting her contacts on one agility run (and then jumping them on the next!), she did some nice jumping sequences too but we have a very long way to go. Anyway we had a really fantastic day and made the video below which pretty much sums it up and to be honest making the video was just as much fun too!!! (Oh and I fell over a jump wing today and fell on the floor infront of loads of people but never mind, at least i'll run round them now!)
