Lovely photo of mini-baby on Sunday,
Got dq'd on all agility runs and also jumping runs, came 4th in retrieve comp

Arh bless, that's so cute, dogs love to do anything to please their owners, I love that, give a dog a ball and that's them happy...give my husband a Dyson and he's happy! (He has enough balls ;) )
I bet you are thrilled.....I would be! :yippee:

Certainly looks pleased with that retrieve. Lovely photo. Thanks for sharing and congrats on the win :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

It was an independent comp, so not KC, so didn't really 'matter' - more a bit of Xmas fun really, had a great day out, agility runs went wrong because of contacts - again, disqualified first run on first dog walk for missing contact, ditto second run
Jumping first run was a unmitigated disaster, second run we went clear on the actual course but mini decided to add an extra tunnel in cos it's fun so another dq, would've got a 3rd with the time, possibly won if she hadn't added the tunnel in
Steeplechase was as usual hilarious disaster, I can't run that fast & mini can't read the numbers, that ended up with me crashing into her, she was fine, happens a lot, and rolling around on the floor
All in all possibly the most fun you can have with your dog, I love competing, but it's sooo much more fun when it doesn't matter what the outcome is

lovely pic and sounds like a lovely day :thumbsup:
I was always sure I was invited to do agility displays with my boy because he was so fast and excited and I was so unable to keep up with him - always good for a lot of laughs from all, I was usually crying with laughter and unable to breathe by the end!

Aw! :love:

what a little superstar! glad you had a fab day - agility is so much fun if you don't take it too seriously ;)

The grade is immaterial - its the attitude I was referring to!, some take it far too seriously esp in the higher grades ;) .

I know, we try and do little in dependant shows just to lighten it up a bit from the KC shows

My dogs would be far too embarrassed of me, I am not very agile, a few of the pups of my older bitch do agility and are doing very well.....I love anything that involves the dog and owner working together!! Your dog is a little star, if it were mine I would have had a little lump in my throat!
