Hello,
Just a note as to where I am! Last two days I was at Dashin Dogs, Scott had 2 x 4th places and a 9th. I made some handling mistakes though so I was slightly annoyed with myself! Jack had a 4th and Che had an 8th so all in all, despite the poor weather it was a good couple of days.
I am now at Scunthorpe, Dog Vegus is on for 4 days this weekend. I am very much looking forward to it.
Here is Scotts video from France in July, notice Scott needs some table training!

Dogs In Need Update
Hello,
A good week so far. Jack had a 3rd today in the Power & Speed Final, I was really pleased as he pulled it out and really worked hard.
Scott has had a 5th Place in the grade 6 agility class on Wednesday, he worked nicely also, however the jumping was not quite as good, the course catching Scott out very early on... or me... it was one of us who decided we go 1 - 5 !!
Lovely weather and some nice pictures (thanks Emily Barnes) and all of my runs have been put on video (thanks Ceri Jones) I cooked everyone breakfast this morning to say thanks... we will all probably be ill in the morning!

Update
Hello,
This is a live update from dogs in need agility show. Today we have arrived and set up after a very busy weekend at the Kennel Club Festival.
The highlights for me were two of Scott’s runs, and Che getting into and going clear in the British Open Final. He did really well and tried his best!
Scott managed 7 not so clever runs, and 2 stunning runs. He came 6th in the British Open agility heat on Saturday, and 3rd in the EO ranking event on Sunday. He was working great.
Gina has very kindly lent me her video camera and ive been getting people (mainly Ceri.. thanks!) to film my runs with Scott, so Im hoping to get some footage online after we are back.
We have two runs each day all of this week (except Thursday which is a rest day!) so hopefully Jack Che and Scott will have some good results to report.

August 1st
Hello,
The internet has been a bit hard to get to over the last few weeks as I have been so busy. After Denmark and the success of both my dogs there (Scott’s 1st & Jacks 3x 2nd Places), I also competed in France where Jack had a 2nd and a 5th place.
Scott was working very well there, however the 2-on-2-off method on the table was not quite what the judges wanted, so we did not have any clears.
I have been very pleased with how Scott worked at the shows and I am happy that August gives us many competition days, which I am really looking forward too. It will be nice to continue working together on the harder courses. Scott has also gained a lot of confidence from doing some more independent work than before, something which I know I need to do more of!
Our next shows are the KC-Festival and Dogs In Need. I will update as we go.
Best wishes to all.
