Home from our holiday

So our little holiday has finally come to an end, we have just arrived back and the dogs are already fast asleep, I guess they must be feeling quite exhausted after their 10 days of competing, I only did half as much and im ready to drop dead !!!

We arrived at Dashin Dogs on thursday night in the pouring rain and gail force winds, I was beginning to think this was going to be a nightmare holiday but after the initial night the weather did settle down for the rest of the week. All the dogs ran well and gained several placings, Zippy has truly lost his start line wait but apart from that is running brilliantly, he has mastered the one footed action in the weaves now so im really pleased with that.

Anyway, monday was rest day so Emma, Amy and me took our 9 dogs to the beach, they had such a brilliant time and were truly exhausted upon our return, we have a few good memories from this day but I think we may keep them to our selves !!!


After Dashin Dogs I picked mum up on route and headed off to Dog Vegas, some really great runs from the dogs, Keisha won G6 Jumping and Zippy gained 3rd in his jumping class, there was even a moment of Ronny being at his best and was just about to get a clear round when he ran past the last jump to get his bloody toy, I was screaming 'in' 'in' but he was just fixed on that dam toy and he ended up coming back and jumping it the wrong side getting us eliminated. (That's why he is only looking at the ice cream van and not getting one, he can wish !!! ).

Anyway a really great holiday, the dogs have all really enjoyed their time away but I think they are as glad as me to be back.

A few congratulations, Emma and Maisy for winning G2 jumping, Amy and Summer for their placings and for qualifying Rupert for Crufts, Ann with Crafty and Gloria for their great runs and placing 4th.
