Guest cloverfdch Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 (edited) At the lovely time of 5am i got out of bed on Sunday morning although i had not gotton any sleep at all worrying about Elvis and his big day. I had nothing well very little to worry about because Elvis did great. The first race he was in he ran twice perfect and then something happened and he decided to run over to the other lane and got "Yellow carded" . After that little issue and having the judges writing down "Dog interferred but no mailce/ agression was shown" he was right, i think he just got lost. My boy is now titled not once but twice :D... So his name is now, Elvis FDX. We only ran him in the right lane just to be safe for now as he was turning away from the dogs in the other lane. The last race he was in for the day he ran head to head with his Uncle or it could be cousin, Astro is alot older than Elvis but was keeping up with him just fine. They were both running in the mid 4 seconds, El's best time for the day was a 4.44 second run which is slower than usual but not too bad. Ohhhh and the result for the day was El's team Ballarat* Eureka took out first pace in division 1 and clovers team the Sovereigns came er.... 5th , but they had fun. I have photos to add but it might not be until tomorrow now. Edited May 1, 2005 by cloverfdch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cloverfdch Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 (edited) Thankyou both, the hard work finally paid off. Jen and your Sparty boy needs FD behind his name :D . SP, Piper is SO cute, i love her style on the box. I got one great photo of her for you' i just need to upload them. Yep it was the Keilor "Flyball for charity" comp at the Keilor grounds. Our next 2 comps are at Geelong and Canberra, and after that i think it will be Yarram and Euroa so nothing realy in the Melbourne area . Urgh i cannot spell .

SpikesPuppy Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Ahhhh too far away lol. Oh well there will be another one in Melb at some stage. And hey- hopefully Caber will be competing himself in a few months (well, 3 months 'til he can start training if he's at the level of obedience needed. Eep). Thanks for taking a pic of Piper for me! I really did mean to go see Julie (her owner) and Piper yesterday but mum got called in to work so i had no way of getting there. It's so inconsiderate when these thingsa re held nowhere near public transport! Looking forward to the piccies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am too competitive when it comes to Flyball, Obedience i dont care if i take out first place in the ring but Flyball is a different story :D. SP, I cannot wait until Caber is up and running. The Melbourne Royal me be the next Melbourne comp. Elvis thought we were going to Flyball this morning for some reason and started howling at 2am , i think he is addicted .

Guest cloverfdch Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 (edited) Thanks again everyone. gusgem, yes it feels great when they get titles, you can see that all of the hard work has paid off. I want to start my Clover dawg back in Obedience soon and go for that darn novice title and get Elvie into Obedience aswell. Jen i think i am going to be the same at Agility i need to work on fitness aswell. Your Mums new pup is GORGEOUS , i am scaring myself i think i am becoming obsessed with Tollers . Ohhh we need another younger Border so Cmon Bodie , when she is old enough of course. Corine, It is too late Elvis was hyperactive from the moment he could walk .

Sparty Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 LOL well we are coming down to the berwick trial on the 15th I think mum plans on bringing the puppies with us Nat, are you going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cloverfdch Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Uh oh puppies , i cannot wait until they start at dog club. You had better warn your Mum now that she is going to have me bugging her . Hehe Clover and Sparty sound very simalar, Clove falls asleep when doing stays and lags terrible when i dont hype her up. Thanks Natasha, it will be great to see Nova up and running. Finn (Toller) has been coming to some Flyball demo's and comps and he seems very enthuasiastic . I think Tollers have me hooked. I wont be getting another dog for another 2-3 years though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
