No car!!

Still no car and it seems i won't have it back till Wednesday afternoon aslong as it passes the MOT again, i'm really missing it and wish they would hurry up and the poor lad that had to clean it i feel very sorry for them and there all going round wearing masks when they have to move it round the workshop lol i'm sure its not that bad i can't help it if wet dogs go in there and my coats like to dry in there. So today Stig was very priveldedged to be aload in Ians car down to Crofts where he got lots of kisses and cuddles and happily layed up side down on the floor. This afternoon we decided that we'd go for a long walk, well 3 hours later we made it too my Grans for a nice cup of tea and and some cheese on toast, we are spoilt. We took Stig down to the water which he paddled in and got very excited and he looked funny as the top of him was fluffy and he has little skinny legs bless. When we got to my Grans my dogs all still seemed to have energy and was running around the conservatory and Stig has a great time running and jumping in one of the beds at which it would slide and hit the wall bless. I am pleased to say they are all knackered know and were praying for no rain tommorow so i can run my classes.

Preston

Saturday me and Ellen ventured upto preston, and it was worth going to see a lovely boxer in grade 4 go round beautifully. Gemmas first round she jumped off all her contacts which off course means she was having a wonderful time it was a nice course with a few tricky bits and then some nice flowing bits to get the dogs going again, the courses where like that all day. Unfortunatley in her other 2 rounds she a pole in each otherwise she would have been clear. Diesel also had a pole in her agility and she went clear in her jumping bless her. Diesel is currently as i am writing this hanging off the sofa scratching her face on my chair and is know demanding a cuddle. Jess really didn't go well at the weekend and really didn't seem herself and i was dissapointed with her, and then on Sunday i took her to do some demonstrations for my classes and she really layed into Tassi i had to peel her off of poor Tassi so i don't no whats up with her as shes never like that so i don't really know whats wrong with her at the moment???
This week has been manic my business has been so busy this week everybody seems to want me shouldn't complainn just means that i am walking my dogs at 6 in the morning in the dark lol hanvn't lost anyone yet and every day i seem to get a soaking and blown around in the wind but he it brings the money in.
Right better go gotta walk another load before it gets dark, congratulations to Clare and Charlie for winning into grade 3 with a fantastic round.

Diesels going to crufts woop woop!!!!

Well this weekend i managed to tick off one of my things i want to do before i die lol. Me Amy and Ellen ventured down to Discover dogs at earls court. Diesel loves big shows and gets the most cuddles as she is so friendly. It seemed a long time untill we got into the ring but when we did Diesel was fantastic. We had to do a dogstbale course which involves obeidence and agility which she was perfect for. She finished 2nd so qualified, i was lucy enough to go in last and knew that only one person had gone clear so the pressure was on. I am so happy and know all my family are getting crufts tickets for christmas lol!!
Gabby has been spayed and hasn't been here for 12 days but she is back today with a vengence which the puppy is loving and Diesel is still mental in the field bless her i love seeing her like that. Stigs puppy training is going well and has know been up the dog walk on his own full height with me on the other side off the field hmmm going to have to leave him in the car for his own safty although this is probably the best time for him to jump on and off the aframe without getting scared as hes dieing to go up that, hope hes still this keen when hes 18 months.
Roll on March.....

Barking mad and last week!!

Had a very busy week last week as Ian was in Germany for work and of course it rained nearly everyday so my house resembled a mud bath (thank god for laminate flooring). Although by the time the mud and the dogs have cleaned themselves up i stupidly take them for another work in the afternoon and once again my house is covered again, i must really love my pooches lol. We took Stig to a fire work party the weekend before and he didn't give a monkeys more interested in eating apples off the floor and getting plenty of cuddles. Took Stig puppy training thursday night he was very good and is really staring to figure things out and when he wants to to be he is a quick learner. My dogs aern't to bothered by fireworks but when our stupid neighbours have they are a little bit bothered, i am abit annoyed as i feel they could have popped round and let me know so i could have taken the dogs somewhere else for a couple of hours, Diesel was rather transfixed and watching the fireworks. Saturday we went to Barking mad show, my doggies have had a 3 week break and i meant to do abit of weave practise on friday but due to Gabby being spayed and general life getting in the way and then lack of light i didn't have time!! Anyway Diesel was very excited and was trying to run around with her bottom underneath her in excitment needless to say lots of faults but it was fantastic watching her hooning around showing off bless her. Gemmas first course was power and speed and it was long jump weaves someow Gemma took them (unlike Jess and Diesel who hooned past them)Gemma had a fab day and relly worked hard and was really running on inher last jumping class unfortunatly i was so busy thinking i must get my turn in at the end of the weaves she pooped out otherwise she would have been placed he ho. Jess got a 12th in her agility althoug she wasted alot of time as she stopped at the 3rd fence and then managed to pop it bank it and still somwhow leave the fence up lol.

Puppy training!!

Thursday night i took Stig to his first puppy training class at Tony Orchards, after playing with Gloria and Crafty all afternoon he was rather tierd lol. He was very good and pottered around with the other puppies happily. We have our home work for the week so must start practising although most of my time seems to be taken up by other dogs lol. This morning i had 2 agility classes which i have had to cancel due to the weather but of course the rain has stopped know but the grass will be incredably slippy. My house seems to just be mud everywhere as soon as ive cleared up after them i stupidly take them for another walk and there covered again atleast there having a great time and are sleepy when they get back. Ian has gone to Germany for a week with work so me and the boxers can share the bed woop woop and means i can get alot of my paperwork done without being disturbed!!
