ness Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 Now see if I was going to get a gundog I think I have my eye on one of those red ones . I am sure Ptolomy won't notice if I dognap one - the question would be though who do I dognap . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Yes, a little red gundog might be the go (after all they look and behave a bit like BCs ( ) . Although I saw a lovely black Lab pup on Saturday - bred by a friend who has lovely working line Labs - she'll have the pup's grandmother at Agility Nationals - and she's a super dog. Friend's husband does the field trial/retrieving work, and friend does the obedience, agility and now Rally work. Good partnership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilmisssascha83 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Just my little brag for today. My girl got first place today in her primary companion exam, we are now starting secondary companion in 2 weeks. YIKES. Also had alot of people telling me to trial her. EKKKK might just finish secondary first. A friend took her to a mock trial as I've been ill the past few weeks and now all I hear is about how great she did and what potential she has. Sadly she has a dud owner who knows nothing about trialing but we will see. For now I"m just over the moon we got a first place. This time last year she got a first place for beginners. She's come so far in a year I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 So after TSD Test 2 last week, we're back from a weekend agility trialling with Miss Kirra. She may be 10, but she's still feral - and she says she still needs a better h/younger handler. 6 runs Saturday and 8 on Sunday = only 2 Qs for the weekend, but some very near misses. And then of course there was the JDM run where we were so enjoying a really fast run down the ring (after successfully if messily negotiating the technical start) - that we totally forgot the little technical loop that came before the long blast home - which wer really enjoyed too. Who cares about the Q - we had a blast. And her Q yesterday was in Open Agility - the last run of the day - so I'm very very happy that the demon bitch and I can still run and have such fun with friends. Now back to earth to do some tracking training with Mr Rory ready for a trial on Saturday . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spotted Devil Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Oh I wish you were coming to the Nationals Tassie! Would love to meet the feral Miss What a bright shining star she is!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Thanks TSD - in some ways I wish I was coming too - but wouldn't be much fun with any pressure on for her - as it is I can just relax and treasure every run. She is nearly 10 and a half. You guys are going to have such fun though - make sure you enjoy every minute. :D (Oh, and Mr Rory did a nice job on his little training track - which had several dog and people crosses and diversions - since I used the local off lead area :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ptolomy Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 After failing distance control for 7 trials in a row........A UDX Pass for the occasionally clever one - 185 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptolomy Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Well done to Bedazzled and Brookie for winning Rally Advanced today - the older boys are loving it. Scoota and Strauss also managed Advance passes Beans won Rally novice for her title. I was thinking of retiring her but she was like a little toy out there and really enjoyed herself - so unsure now. The occasionally clever one dropped during the sit stays in open - but he passed UDX so all is forgiven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tassie Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Way to go Ptolomy and Bedazzledx2. Yay for the occasionally clever one - and for his mum. And so very good to see the kids all having fun in Rally. You'll have to keep going with Beans now Ptolomy - she won't forgive you otherwise - and even if there is a jump, they're sooooo low.
