So proud of my boy Jack for winning this shield from Trent Valley dog club for his work in obedience . |
| |
|
When I first had Jack he was terrified of everybody and everything. When we went to get him he just shot under a chair and wouldn’t come out and trembled all the way home. He was just under a year old. He was very stressed and this showed somewhat in his health because we had a terrible problem with diarrhoea which necessitated many trips to the vet who said it probably was just stress that was causing it. He very gradually gained confidence and his health improved . I was then able to take him into the show ring and actually managed to qualify him for Crufts. I then started to take him to obedience classes. He was about 18 months old now which for me is quite late to start training a dog but he surprised me greatly. He slowly gained confidence with his obedience work and started to become much friendlier and would approach people for a fuss. He loves his obedience work and he is very steady and predictable and doesn’t worry now about things happening around him. He had been placed in several competitions. He has even gained his Gold citizens award and has often accompanied me with my therapy dog Benji to some of the nursing homes, where he meets and greets the residents without any trouble at all now. My dog club recognised this huge improvement in Jack and so decided to award him this special trophy. I am very proud of him. |

| Update from Nina (March 20th) |
| Following on from Wispa's achievement in passing his gold citizen award after three lessons, his kennel mate Robbie also won the gold award, thus joining Nina's other dogs. He achieved this after only having one lesson. His training put on hold when Nina was hospitalised following eye surgery. |

Rags (Yewdale Lucky Charm) is 11, he reached grade 6 but these days unless he is in a team or pairs he runs in Any Size or Veteran classes where he can jump over a lower height than he used to.
He has had a 1st and 4th in Anysize Agility, a 1st in the De-Photo team competition and a 4th in the Chatsworth pairs.

Dart |

From Pat Wallis (October 2014) |

|
|
Pat and her shelties have had another good year in the agility ring. Cali (Ramtin Rioutous) returned to the ring after a year off due to having his digital flexor tender repaired. Pat decided that he would only compete in jumping classes for a while until he was fully fit. Even so he managed a number of places including a 1st and 2nd in Grade 5-7 agility. |

BUBBLE |
| |
|
|
Pat was really looking forward to competing with Bubble (Peartbrook Out of the Blue) and was not disappointed. He started the year well at his very first show he made a number of baby mistakes but did manage a scrappy clear. Two weeks later he was in the ring again and won his first jumping class. He continued the rest of the season running his little heart out.
Oh how he loves his agility.
Between April and July he won ten 1st places and three 2nd places taking him from Grade 3 to Grade 5 in just a few months.

Pat is also rightly proud of her older boy, Bry (Felthorn Flashback), who still likes to show Cali & Bubble that he is clever too. In between competing at Darlington Championship breed show this year he took time out to gained his Gold Citizen Award.
