Hahah it was Megan, the commentary was so funny, cracked me up when I watched it back. Yeah it was really really good, pretty much all of the WA people were very supportive of each other which was awesome, of course there were a few that weren't but you get that, the good definitely outweighed the bad, and it was really great being able to watch other WA people in finals and cheer them on, or share in their pain.

Oh Tiggy - Second place went to a beautiful black brindle SBT - Southstock Miss Sophia :D Go the terriers! :laugh:

Yep I really really loved running indoors! It was so cool! It was such a shame that Trixie didn't like it (mostly because of the noisiness) so didn't run the way she normally does But she was pretty close to normal in that JDX final video thankfully! The venue just made the nationals experience more special - loved it.

Trixie's Second place in the JDX heat 3 - got her into the finals (look how cold she is at the start line poor little thing!)

I put my videos in the thread TSD linked to but I'll post some here since it's probably more relevant :laugh: Yes was good to get home, Trixie came bounding out of her crate at the Perth end, must have slept well! Cross posted: Here are some videos, first up, my campervan mate :laugh: Jules (Not a DOLer) and Macs Disco Diva who won Masters Jumping 500 for the second nationals in a row (not bad going) this is her winning run This is Trixie's Excellent Jumping finals run:

Hahahh somewhat worried, that describes it well Tassie :laugh: Here is the video of her finals run for anyone interested (she puts her paw up like that when she's cold by the way :laugh: )

Back to work today, the rain felt like warm tropical showers compared to Sydney :laugh: I'll never say it's cold in Perth again!! Still on cloud 9 about the agility nationals, wow what a blast and the best I'd hoped for was to make a final, but my Trixie-bean made both and then won the Excellent Jumping 400 height! My crazy terrier is a national champ!!! I didn't think we'd have a chance against a field of 18 border collies, shelties, and other great dogs! She also got her JDX title over there with a pass to spare. I'm just so so proud of how well she handled everything and how well she coped with the travel and everything. Wow what a trip, sad it's over now!

It's called zig and ems excellent adventure or something like that WOW what a nationals that was, the venue was incredible, so many great runs, had a blast!! I have some video to post but will have to wait until tomorrow, at the moment we are sitting in the sunshine at erskine park giving the dogs a good run before our flight home tonight. Two of our three dogs were national champions yesterday so we are pretty cheery :laugh:

Well done with Ella she is so cute! I'm so pleased with Trixie and her attitude, despite being cold and rainy, and her tiredness she just ran a very neat JDX run and came second!! that is also her JDX title, and we are now in both finals. I am just so proud of her I didnt think my little Mannie would have a chance against 17 other great dogs. Now I have to break the news to her that she has to go into the scary indoor arena two more times lol

Oh trixie came second in her excellent agility heat this morning which means we are in the finals, I can't believe it! I didn't think she had a chance against all these dogs but her accuracy paid off!

I'd say 7 Course walking starts at 7.30 (if you're first up)

About bloody time you posted. Sheesh. Been watching, waiting, stalking.... congrats on the passes! :) Norty Trix being all slow.. tell her to go jump on top of a tunnel or something to get some zing back LOL oh and kicking terriers just makes em run faster.... LOL Hope you having a fantastic time! Lol sorry :p I wanted to know all results before posting :-P Hmm kicking mine didn't help lol

Oh bugger inevitablue! Oh well you'll have to aim for Brisbane 2014!

Yep a few ACDs about I saw a few in the 400 height today and some in 500 also

Trixie is still really funy about the indoor arena but we did manage a JDX pass (despite me kicking her just why she needs lol) and a novice snooker pass, no placing the 400 class here is so competitive! Because she is worried and slow my timing is all wrong! It's such a shame she doesn't like the arena because it is so awesome to run on! Our next two days are outside and I am hoping trixie will go back to her normal self :)

Those numbers are the height classes luvsdogs The biggest class is 500

sigh, if only you had taken the tenterfield.... LOL Pmsl That would have been worse lol

Lol no way we could win open - it's against everyone in 400 and also my dog and I don't do distance :laugh:

See you here Luke you and barkly are in our open class :D I saw barkly's name a few down from trix :)

It is now $25 to apply for a title

Oh :rofl: :rofl: Yeah something like that lol No I mean I think I will need a break from agility for a while :p

Lol not really a couple of mentions in the results section but they are all from longggg ago, start of the year. There are quite a few agility trials but I feel no desire to enter them at the moment and I'm sure I will feel even less desire after the nationals lol

Got my K9 news today :D

Luck of the draw really! I have a perfectly sound fit healthy purebred dog - unfortunately his temperament is very lacking. Luck of the draw and research into family history but even then you are still taking a stab in the dark and a leap of faith really. We had a mongrel family dog, from a long long line of pure mongrels :laugh: She was originally a camp dog, we used to live in a remote town, anyway she lived to be 18 or so but she was not without issues, heart murmurs, seizures, but still had a remarkable life span considering her background and also that she was tick and worm ridden and very underweight when we got her.

Just popping in to say see you in Sydney amypie Yes you will see me there, with the only Mannie, awww The one who stil won't be trained for the beepy table since training is cancelled tonight due to storms :laugh: Oh well!
