SandS show, Honiton


a lovely show run by Sharon & Selena this weekend - shame about the weather on saturday, we were soaked thru by the time we left at almost 6! the dogs were wet, so were we, the seats were still wet the following day! but luckily the sun came out all day ( i have the burnt nose to prove it!)

zig was a little floaty for me yesterday, harry had a nice run in the steeplechase with her on sat, and i had one in the s/c yesterday aswell, she missed the last but one jump, so we picked up a 5, plus a longer time! meg tho was lovely to run, her 1st run on sat was very scrappy and poles were flying! but her agility, she got every contact, i so wish i'd taken a toy as i had a feeling she wouldnt get the weave entry, we still struggle with weaves, mainly me unfortunatley, and alot of it i put down to her rushed training as a youngster. we seem to be working well at the moment, lets hope we dont embaress ourselves at thames next week with her babies there!
we came home with 2 x 4th places over the weekend, very pleased with them! my aim for the weekend was to get them both staying in 12 weaves, meg did just that after beign taken back on both courses with missed entries! and zig did it after missing them completely! my other aim was for getting contacts, meggie is 4 on floor - its too hard for her to stop physically ON the contact!!

we still havent managed a 'kc show' clear yet, so we still have an aim for the season!

Well done to you all!! Loved the video. I am still learning all the handling moves and it's really helpful to watch how it's done - thanks for sharing. Love the bit of Terra at the end - she's gorgeous!!
