Warwick Races

Forgot to write in about Warwick races. Lovely day out and I got sunburnt. It was our first outing in the van :) how much easier it is in a van not a car, and Judy was able to travel with us. It was a funday for all the family, with rides for the kids and racing for the adults and AGILITY too!!!! Ruger had some nice runs but I was most pleased with the way he cleared the obstacles that he had not seen before, a gate, a brush hurdle and planks, he wasn't bothered by them at all. Zara was wild on her first run, then had some really good runs just with unlucky 5 faults, and then she got a clear in the com 1-7 jumping :)

Dig It

Had a great day out yesterday at Dig It. No clears for Zara but she got 4th in both agility and jumping with 10 faults. Rugers first jumping run was a bit wild, but second run was fab, until the last jump where he went round it and ended up backjumping for an E, could have been a nice clear. The agility course was quite hard, although it ran nice I think it was a little difficult for Ruger, although he coped well and did some nice weaves on the second run, his contacts were brill, he ran at them and I expected him to leap off but he stopped each time with a lovely 2on 2off :) Zara got E'd in the steeplechase as I forgot the course :( someone asked me why Zara had gone into the wrong tunnel, as its not like her, I had to say because I told her to! Ruger ran a lovely clear just lost a little time on a very wide turn as he wanted to say hello to the judge, but came 2nd

WBSDS Unaffliated Show

Had a lovely day at the WBSDS show last month. No clears for either dogs but some lovely runs. Ruger had decided that staying on the startline was for wimps, think Mawgan had told him that! So I kept putting him back, he did some fantastic runs after being E'd!!!! Zara was crazy on her first run, no change there, but again some excellent work just unlucky with pesky poles.
