Hailsham Lions Agility Show

Well i didnt think i was going to make it this year as i had planned to do flyball this weekend but the team i was running Cai with had to pull out so i managed to squeeze a last minute entry in. All three got to have a run today as the rings were netted although i am feeling more positive about Cai by the minute as he is really focused and just loves to work and i feel he will be ready to run out of netting by spring 2010.

First up Campbell had grade 1-3 agility. It was a nice flowing course without any weaves and he did a cracking round to finish 5th. Chico was up next, he didnt put that much effort in but got round without any sniffing with just 5 faults on the dog walk. Last up was Cai. Well what can i say! hes a little star and he managed to pull a clear out of the bag... yes it was messy but he has only had 1 proper training session this year and one other agility show to date. I was very pleased to find out he had come 3rd! not a bad start to agility shows for him.

Last up was grade 1-3 jumping. Campbell did a messy clear to finish 6th, my fault not his! Chico should have been eliminated (as he jumped an extra jump) but the judge wasn't looking so just gave us 5 for a refusal! And Cai was just a bit mad! i tried to get him going like i know he can and went a bit far as he was totally mental and i didnt have much control so really need to keep him a bit calmer until he is more responsive in the ring.
