Flyball Judge's

Emma, Amy and I are now officially allowed to judge Flyball competitions. It was a great day and we have learnt loads, we even picked up a few tips on how to help our team run.

Emma and I braved it this afternoon and opted to take part in the judging of the starters competition, thankfully we judged Division B as our Brickyard Bullets team were competing in Division A.

It was such a good buzz and it seemed to run very smoothly, we have both caught the bug and decided we want to judge more often so we are putting our names forward to judge at future comps.



The Brickyard Bullets didn’t get off to a great start, Jess was supposed to be running today but unfortunately cut her pad very badly ten minutes before we were due to race, thankfully Amy had brought Summer along so she jumped in and made up the missing place. The team had a great day and we managed to get them all down in some sort of fashion. Smartie was brilliant today and didn’t put a paw wrong, Kody had quite a good day but on occasions got too distracted by gazing into dad’s eyes and missed the lights. A good day all in all, fingers crossed it all go’s to plan next month when Kody has his first race with the Bandits.

Tomorrow Ronny is off to a YKC training day with Amy in Milton Keynes, it’s in preparation for Crufts and it will be a good opportunity for them to work together and pick up each other’s habits. Im hoping Ronny will be a good boy, he does love working for Amy but it's usually for the flyball, im hoping he will realise there is no jumps and a box tomorrow and the run in the show ring is not a race.

Don't worry Amy, I wont feed him his weetabix for breakfast tomorrow !!!
