Firstly, I'm pleased to say that my handling held it's own at the MBCC show and although we didn't get any clears I was thrilled with our performances in all 3 classes so progress is definitely being made.
Amy and I have been going to Jo's for our Sunday afternoon workout !!!!! and what a workout it is. I have attached a couple of video's from this week, they were taken halfway through so you will have to forgive the tired legs and my panting through Amy's video.
I hope you'll agree Summer and Amy are really starting to look good, it's such a vast transformation from this time last year, we are really looking forward to the 2012 season. Jo mentioned Rupert and I could easily be in Grade 6 by the end of the season GRADE 6!! I hadn't ever given that a thought, I was hoping to be on the way to grade 5 possibly, I can tell you the thought of walking into a grade 6 ring to walk frightens the crap out of me!
Rupert and I went for our first Obedience lesson with Mary Ray last week, it was brilliant, she picked up on two things, I need to teach Rupert to walk and trot, he is lovely when following my outstretched arm but he tries to hard to keep the position in Close and ends up hopping or limping! and also I need to work on his final postion, I've always had him in quite an upright position but he would be better in a wrapped around lower head position, so thats my home work before the next lesson at the end of Feb... Plenty to do. I've also had my draw for Crufts, I'm 20th out of 20 which I think is a really good place to be, plenty of time to watch the others and plenty of time for the rescue remedy to kick in!
