Well what a time of it we have had :D

Its been too long again since we last posted on here so best bring us up to date with Bella's progress and what progress it has been :D
Scunthorpe - We where still having out pole knocking and weave popping troubles but managed to sneak in a jumping clear in combined 1-3 a lovley Kenny course and a fantasitic 2nd in combined 1-2 jumping a lovely Doc course and we got our first trophy hihi I do start to see a pattern with certain judges who suit the way we run :)

Demo for Pet Respect in West Park - Bella showed her stuff again in front of the public at the demo in West Park
Dog Vegas Winterton - Oh how I wish I didn't turn at all lol lots of pole rolled as I just can't keep calm and panic in places hey ho better luck next time
Sponsored walk for HERIB - Bella walked me across the Humber Bridge whilest trying to get through the gaps in the railings for the water lol
Deliquent Dogz - Lovely day went to support some of our memebers and came away with 2nd place in lvl 1 jumping
Dog Vegas Bakewell - Time to test out the new tent for next year :D Must of helped as we got 5th place in grade 1 jumping with 5F and 5th place in grade 1 agility with 5F two rossies in a day well what do you know!!! Lovely venue with a nice walk for the evening too :) Couple of dodgey runs as Bella caught a wiff of something in the air must have been the farmers market as not like her at all.
Deliquent Dogz - Chilly day again went to support some of our club members and came away with a suprising 1st place in lvl 1 Agility good god I was shocked we don't do clears in agility you know lol
Gundog Show - Nice to be competitng against our own couple of other super quick labbies there which was great to see, really please with 5th place CLEAR in agility, yes you heard it right agility and the words clear together amazing and she managed 6th place clear in jumping good weekend away with the girls too :D The best thing about the weekend had to be my super calm girlie who licked yes licked another dog who'd of thought that would happen lol
Hare N Hounds - First indoor show since Feb was a bit nervous with the close spacing but shouldn't have been Bella is a star has come on leaps and bounds over these last few months and has really settled in the show enviroment. We try and experiment running her without a run, bad idea lol 25f is not good so back to our normal good run then into the ring and we did better no clears (I don't do clears at KC as too bloody nervous lol) but a suprising 9th place in jumping in a super quick time and where the lovely Jette got 1st :D
Feeling a bit sad now tho as nothing until the end of Nov how are we going to cope, think we might have to do so extra training at home :D
