Logan Trial today and man it was a stinker of heat... we had two runs and they were both great ones..

JDX.. HARD AS :laugh: but suprisingly I managed to pull it off but due to a certain sombody waling through the tunnel we had 3 time faults...

AD.. 1st Q and AD TITLE!! :crazy: thats been almost 3 years in the making!!! Im so proud of jock.. The judge was a really lovely judge and she could have easily called several lots of refusals but she didn't and Im thrilled to bits!!

so I now have Jock NJC AD JD SD... lol I swear there is some kind of pill for that :eek:

Well done Smisch :confused:

We had a games trial this morning and River came home with his novice gamblers title which is our first games title. We also passed novice snooker and novice pairs too so very happy with my little one :laugh:

Top efforts Smisch and Rivsky - I hope you celebrated in fine style :eek:

I guess that raises the next question - do you celebrate your dog doing well and how do you celebrate a title.

Pink Bubbles are the order of the day when Deb and I travel interestate :laugh:

The boys are always rewarded with on the spot jackpots of various sorts. :confused: I have to say I spend longer in the supermarket trying to decide what jackpots to take than I do deciding what I am going to have for dinner :crazy:

Hmmm for me it depends on the achievement. The whole world is going to know when we crack that first UD pass, if ever :laugh: and I think there will be plenty of tears from me :eek: . Ness's last title was her ADM and that was more out of relief and not as much excitment as there probably should have been attached to it. Although I did remember to text a certain somebody so people knew before I arrived home again and I had emails waiting :crazy: .

Hmm a 190 in Open would be a biggy for me on my list and that might be a phone a friend moment ;) .

Both kids did get a lamb tendon when Ness got her ADM but they had it the next day as we were obedience trialling the following day.

We take cakes or chocolates out to club to help celebrate titles and I know with Ness's ADM she did manage to sneak a couple of startburst snakes :confused: .

Yep on the spot jackpots here too - and if he has a 100% pass rate I've been known to throw in an extra one for good measure, not that he really knows the difference but makes me feel better :laugh:

Can't believe I'm about to admit this but actually made Riv cheesecake for one of his jackpots this week :cry: Oh ok we ate most of it but made an effort to keep some aside for him!! I've definitely been well trained to keep the jackpots varied and always try to make them something completely different to what I use in training so they seem a little bit more "special".

We also get something he likes that we share with him for his dinner as well - and after that the poor boy is put on rations for the rest of the week to make up for all the treats :crazy:

Well we had an 'introductory' ADAA trial here in Vic this weekend just gone :eek:

A huge :confused: and well done to all the ADAA people who organised the event! Was heaps of fun and a good way to learn about the other 'styles' of agility competition ;)

Bummer about the rain on Sunday and the horrible wind!!! Made it tough competing and standing in the rain certainly didn't help my cold at all!!! :crazy:

Well my kids did well, and I (think) Leo walked away with his AAD title?!?!?

Leo ended up with passes in:

Intermediate Agility

Starters Agility

Starters Jumping

Starters Agility

Kinta had passes in:

Intermediate Jumping

Starters Jumping

Starters Jumping

I loved the courses and the ones we bombed out on were mainly due to handler errors or small faults by the dog!

So proud of them both :laugh:

So many achievements.Congrats everyone!

I hope I can add some trialling achievements soon.

In the meantime...

Barkly passed his first two equipment modules (Contacts A and Tunnel) with flying colours at Croydon on Sunday.

and

My first appearance in the practice obedience ring at Croydon - apparently, I'm 'probably the worst at walking in a straight line they've ever seen'. How's that for an achievement! I was sooo nervous. (Note to self - stop looking at dog while heeling, and practice walking straight lines).
