  1. This is still available if anybody wants it.
  2. PM me your address and if a showie doesn't claim it tonight it's in the mail to you in the morning :)
  3. I thought this might find a home quicker in here. If it's in the wrong spot please let me know. I entered my GSP in the Royal this year and can't go now, received the package in the mail today and had the idea rather than tossing the pass out thought someone might have a use for them. The parking pass is for a car only.
  4. Well done everyone. Such a great start to the year for all.
  5. Took me 33 trials to get our first leg - then only 6 to get her title. So you're right once you get the first one it can happen quickly. And I eventually realized that the best dogs and handlers get duck eggs in UD. If it was easy there'd be "Useful Dogs" everywhere LOL
  6. Kath, I remember reading about all your UD woes, and then you finally cracking that UD! And to now, it seems like she is still consistent enough to pass each time you trial? (bugger the scores weren't enough for OC legs!) You give me hope!!! Please tell me it will get easier Well done on your year It gets easier!! I think a lot of our earlier problems were in my head. I just couldn't wrap my head around the fact that we were actually doing UD and we belonged there so I let the team down. Once we got our first leg though and a friend worked on my head it seemed to click.It certainly made me a better trainer
  7. Well we got some of these :). Coco got her Tracking CH making her a dual Ch. Still can't believe that. Only managed three UD trials this year (me bad) and each time so close but not quite the 185s we need - most likely my fault not hers ??? Became Peggy the piglet. Most over the top puppy I have ever had arrived in our life in May. Foundations are going well and she seems to be loving it. Got into the show ring with her and started on the long road to a show title (only 70 points to go LOL) Sorted Pips health issues and she remains supreme couch dog.. So not too bad a year thanks to the dogs I kept to a similar level of insanity and you can't ask for more than that
  8. Well done biker girl. Those RAEs show true dedication. Yay RS. So close in UD. It will come :)
  9. Little brag for the pocket rocket Coco. Last night went up to Nanango for our last trial of the year and despite no training to speak of and only her third time out since tracking finished she got the only quallie in the whole trial, there was high wind, lots of prickles and the icing on the cake was the fireworks. It was also the happiest I have seen her in a trial ring this year she was yodeling high jumping and turning whirly gigs in between exercises.
  10. What a wonderful achievement!!!13 ! From what I can remember about about being 13 I was lucky to get my dads dog to walk on lead. Congratulations
  11. Group 4. Best Pharoah hound, Reserve Basset, Puppy Saluki and Baby Dakkie
  12. Well done Ness! What an achievement for Kenz after all she has go e through
  13. RS Not so much inspiration as stubborn and a really good friend/coach/sports psychologist :)
  14. Congratulations RS. Well deserved Millie is a star!
  15. FANTASTIC She is a little star So dare I ask.......... what is the next challenge? Those last OC legs and dare I say it UDX :) Thanks everyone we were just a little excited and pleased with ourselves yesterday.
  16. Have to post here - we did it!!!!! Passed our TD7 this morning . Makes Coco Dual CH (Tracking) Fourjays Just A Charmer UD.. Only took her 18months from putting the harness on for the first time.. Such a clever dog. Pixie dance and bubbles tonight :)
  17. Had a second go at our TD7 this morning and we passed. Woohoo!!!!! Pixie dancing in the house. It was damn hard work after lots of rain yesterday there was a heavy fog this morning that lifted for the track layers and came back down again for the competitors. Added to that there was a large percentage of the track under ankle deep water which confused her a bit. But she never ever gave up kept working and we finished with a grading of Good. Never have I been so happy to see a body in the grass ;)
  18. Wel done Ptolomy! And love the photo :).
  19. Oh I can so sympathise on the 7, but you're right there's always another chance . Congrats on the three though
  20. We had our first go at a 7 this weekend and for about 1180 meters she was brilliant then 20 meters before the hide in the middle of a herd of cows she did a hard left and kept going. I couldn't see the tracklayer either. Gut wrenching is about the best way to describe it when called back by the judge and pointed out the hide will take a few days to get my head around it I think
  21. Congratulations!!!! What an awesome weekend.
  22. WOW!!! Congratulations a very special achievement for a very special team.. Grand Obedience Champion - the stuff of dreams
