Cool Agility surprise

Well what a lovely couple of days we have had at cool agility. Diesel started off by using alot of her energy hooning around the exercise area we me for once unable to catch her lol i know nobody would believe and to be truefull im glad you all didn't see me trying to catch a boxer jumping around thinking that i was playing with her, it was abit embarasing lol. The dogs went well on Saturday having a few poles here and there but they havn' done anything for a month so probably need brain to muscle training but i was really chuffed with them and at the end of the day one of the judges came up to me and said how calm and good my handling was which was lovely to here. Monday came and my dogs were even better and once again another person commented on how well Jess has come on in large, which to be trueful i forget what shes gone from so it was lovely to here. The courses were lovely and i felt all weekend Gemma wasn't really at her full potential so i left her right to the end off her last class and im pleased to say she was lovley and put abit of faith back onto me so it is just the stress of everything. Stig has had a great couple off days its been great having Ian there as he hasn't been for months and it was great to let Stig que and watch everything going on and off course the cuddles. We were going home last night but we stopped talking and i had no idea what they were presenting but they called out my name with Gemma at 9th and then believe it or not somehow Jess got a 4th in the 1-7 agility i was very shocked and had some lovely comments from people i still cant believe it know and it was such a shame that Diesel got e'd in her weaves in that round as she was much quicker than the other too she was off and great fun!!

Snowy pics...


We hanvn't had that much snow but enough for the dogs to spend most off the morning outside playing in it. Stig is running around with a ball and 3 boxers chasing him. Diesel is off her rocker at the moment its excellent shes always playing shes manic think her food has definately kicked in and it doesn't seem like the weather is going to let us have a quick training session before moreton morrel so i think Diesel may be running around with her bottom well and truly underneath her lol cant wait! The christas tree is still somehow up, not sure how! Diesel has taken a liking to fake sparkly snow the little monkey and has been seen to be chewing the braches lol. Stig likes to take a few decoratins off although atleast he just throws them around the room and for some reason there mst be a nice prezzie under there as they hae all had there heads well and truly under it. Gabby has always got her tail under it and then she starts wagging it with decorations going everywhere, Gemma keeps jumping from one sofa to another. Jess seems to be the only sensible one he he!!
When we got to the field his morning it was -10 ahhh and a car had gone into a tree badly which we checked no one was in there as no body really goes down that road. As soon as i opened the door i suddenly thought about what i might find but luckily the driver must have been ok and got out phew!!! The dogs didn't seem to notice the cold although i walked alot quicker than normal.

Jess has also qualified for crufts!!!!!!!


How lucky am i another thing ticked off my list Jessica has qualified in YKC agility woop woop!! I'm so excited and pleased for her although know we've got to do some serious training. She is on the Saturday and Diesel is on Sunday i'm so excited and i cant wait i'm so lucky to have two dogs going!
Me and Mum went to Oympia yesterday it was great i got Diesel her new crufts collar and we watched some amazing agility and that arena is massive it was a long way round for the handlers but they were great and lovely to actually be able to sit and watch it without rushing around.
We eventually put the christmas tree up the other day, we are very anti christmas this year as something just seems to keep going wrong at the moment and taking our money. Well i thought Stig would have been in there but no Diesel was the first one with her head under the tree and then Gemma aswell i did come home today to find one decoration off and our tree topper topping the sofa lol although it does keep falling off, will put a photo on of the tree next time i blog.
My people that i was walking there dogs and doing there horse went on Friday to Exeter, it was quite sad as i have watched the house be packed up and i liked the family but he ho they'l be more work around the corner. The removals people had packed the dogs leads and all the horses travelling kit so i had to lend them some of my stuff.
I would just like to thank my pooches again for being the bestest pooches and getting me to my dream.

This is Oscar!!!


This is Oscar the new member off the boxer tribe. He is Nicolas Auntys puppy who is coming for the day on Fridays, he's very good and when hes had enough of my lot he goes back in his bed in his cage and he even puts Stig in his place, excellent!! We were meant to go solihull yesterday for the rugby show but we are that skint at the moment we decided to save on fuel how depressing is that although it did mean Stig had a nice trip into town and lots off cuddles later. We have also had a irish terrier stopping for the weekend so Stig has had a great time playing with her and we also had to walk a rottweiler yesterday afternoon so he has played with one off them aswell.

Stig had to have another little paddle in the bath the other day as he rolled in fox poo it was funny as he came running past me and then dived and skidded along the floor in this poo very nice but he had fun splashing around in the bath untill we got him out and before i could grab him to dry him he had run off over the bed downstairs on the sofas it was hillarious bless him!!

Hopefullly our morning walks at 6am will be over this week as the family i am doing abit of work for are moving this week as long as it all goes to plan, i will definately miss the money but not the early mornings. We have had a good play in the field this afternoon with only my dogs, we played recall games were i run one way and Ian goes other and then the dogs run up and down its great fun and there all knackered and ive also starting every know and then have a little run with Stig as i don't want him to jump up me when hes older but he hasn't shown any signs off doing this so thats great.

Brilliant pooches!!


On Saturday me and Anne ventured to Barking mad again via Mcdonalds! I had a nice agility course to walk and Diesel was in first and she does love being the first out the car and didn't she prove it, she got e'd on the second fence we decided Crafty had had a word with her in the car as she was jumping anyhting and everything lol i was great she was having a fantastic time. Jess was next and i don't think ive ever known er to be that fast she just had a pole i got abit in front of her and she was catching me up i was so out of breath she made me run although that will probably never happen again so i will cherish that memory. And Gemma did a lovely clear. There jumoing course was rather tricky, 2 lots of flick flacks a horrible start but all off my dogs did it perfectly just Diesel and Jess having the same pole out off the tunnel so must have been my postitoning and Gemma went clear and coming 13th! They were all soo good and i'm hoping Diesel stays like this as its great fun and i'm very pleased to sacrifice our first round for her to go abit looney as shes really enjoying it. Stig had plenty off cuddles and managed to dig a massive hole in the school before i'd even realised lol. Anne and Crafty had a fantastic jumping round just to have a pole otherwise she would have been clear, we talked it through how she was going to run it as there was a nasty tight box in it and she decided to go on the outside off the jump otherwise she would push her out and Crafty did it fantastically.
My business is going increadably well and i am pleased to say i can't take on anymore clients at the mo as i am flat out and only just coming home to run my dogs rond the fields before i have to walk some more, although i did get bit badily by a weinerama the other day who hasn't been soialised and we meet a dog and she just got soo stressed and i wasn't letting her lunge on the lead like her owner would so she got me on the ack off the leg whilst i was trying to tell the other one off and im very proud off my bruise its massive.
There is another boxer puppy in the family Nicolas Aunty has just got a white puppy today and it is coming to stop with me on Fridays so will get some pictures off the new recruit. Me and Anne were informed the other day that next year there is ashow on that has a boxer trophy so we are aiming for that there will be a big fight and were trying to get as many boxers there as we can!
