just a very small acheivment.....
« on: June 05, 2007, 07:07:38 PM »
.......but I'm over the moon!

Last night Ben came 1st in our clubs monthly competition night :luv:  there is only about 20 dogs there and its only for non completing dogs, so you get the idea of the level  :005: but I have had such problems with controlling Ben over the last few months, trying to harness his manic behaviour I didn't think we would ever manage to get round!

We did get 5 faults as he jumped off the dog walk (thats the latest trick...but that's another story) but other than that he was a star - even doing the full set of weaves which a month ago would have been the trigger for some real problems.  36.25 seconds which was 8 secs faster than a couple of collies!!!

Bens mum  :luv:

Well done Ben!  I just wish that your namesake could do as well as you!  (PS I think your patient and hard working owner may have had something to do with it too)  :005:

Brilliant effort Ben's mum!
