Happy New Year 2017

Happy New Year 2017!

Ethel and I

2016 has been an absolutely awesome year for me. Ethel made her debut into the world of Agility and went from Grade 3 to 6 and halfway to Grade 7, Ethel and I qualified for Crufts 2017 in the Young Kennel Club (YKC) Over 12 Small Agility Dog Of The Year Semi-Final by winning a qualifier, Ethel and I qualified for the Young Kennel Club (YKC) Agility Team GB Squad Day 2 after success at Squad Day 1, Earl went Grade 6, Earl achieved his Agility Warrant Silver and Ethel achieved her Agility Warrant Bronze! Thank you to everyone who has been a part of making 2016 such an awesome year for me. I cannot wait for another year of pushing ourselves for more success and enjoying every moment of it!

A New Look For Christmas

Earl and Ethel are sporting a new look for Christmas!

Earl and Ethel

While Ethel's insane fuzz was done by our regular groomer, I managed to fully groom Earl myself in two hours. I fully hand-stripped him, gave him a full start and finish groom-through, trimmed his beard and paw hair and cut his nails. They'll be looking and feeling amazing for Christmas!

Dog Vegas Agility Show - 17/12/2016

Earl and Ethel were absolutely brilliant at the Dog Vegas Agility Show.

Ethel and Earl

Earl won Small Graded 5-7 (5) Agility (his final win necessary), meaning that he is now Grade 6! He then came 3rd in the Small Combined 1-5 Agility Dog Vegas Finals 2017 Qualifier and qualified for the event for the second year in a row!

Ethel won Small Graded 5-7 (6) Jumping, came 3rd in Small Combined 6-7 Agility and 6th in Small Combined 6-7 Jumping!

The Bishop Burton Arena was amazing; it was the first time that I have ever been warm while doing Agility in the Winter...
