h&h Easter

A bit hit and miss. Spike popped his weaves 5 times (and then got them with me standing over him a bit more). Ben decided stopping for contacts was so boring he would just blast around. So I had to re-introduce the "touch" word. It worked, but I am trying to phase it out so this is a step backwards.

Spike got a 3rd in agility, and Ben would have been clear in a quite complicated jumping round, if I had not gone the wrong way (he was really flying and doing all his lefts and rights perfectly).

A good start to the outside KC season. Could have got some good places with Spike, but just had the odd pole here and there. He's running well though and much happier in the queues this year too. Just as excitingly Ben had a couple of very good rounds and will be challenging immediately that he starts going clear. He's only 2 so this year could be a good one for us.

DD 2nd April

Ben got another clear round this time in agility, and once again won the class. Ben now has a 100% record of 1st places where he has gone clear. Rosie the springer came quite a close second, nice to see a fast springer.

Spike also won his agility class, by about 5 seconds.

We got nowhere in the jumping, Ben's first I took a wrong course, but Ben worked really well, second one he had 2 poles. Spike's course just didn't seem to sink into my brain. Still it was a very interesting course and fun (thanks Jackie).

So a good day. Ben was also very sociable and amused us with his antics.
