no agility this week




no puppy class either
was at the hospital with my step dad George ...
he died on Thursday

he has been part of my life for more than half of it - in different roles but my memories of him go back to childhood ...I will miss him

I would so like to be able to focus only on the fun stuff

being grown up sucks - good thing you don't know that when you are a little kid ...

the dogs will miss George - he always enjoyed watching thier antics and he certainly adored Wilkie (his jrt)

I really need to get back to agility - for my heart if nothing else ...

tis Tuesday night ...

Which now means AGILITY - at least for Sally and me

my dumb ankle kept me walking instead of running but the soft floor was just lovely - I walked in socked feet - what a treat

we put together the aframe - and Sally did it numerous times well :) teeter went well too

weaves needed more support than I wanted to give but she needs to learn them still really so I should be pleased she weaved when asked ...

she ROCKED the dog walk talk about contacts .. YOWSER - object discrimination was no issue either as long as I got the words out in time ...

she is a very very talented dog - again I doubt my ability to allow her to show and train herself at the maximium but I'm what she's got so I hope we figure it out
