Agility comp at Paws in the Park in September

[MontyMoo]

Muddy paw prints on our trousers!! 

Like the dogs' collar idea though...Hmm [img width= height= alt=SmileyCentral.com" border="0]http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_12_6.gif[/img]...we need our thinking caps on!!  Will definately be there on the Sunday, but may be going Saturday too??...there's two different groups of friends/family I've pestered who both want to go but on different days!!! Typical!!

Whew!
Dyllan is too young to do the agility class so we will go in for the dog show and hope to try splash and dash.
How about green ribbon in the collars?
I can't think of anything else

Hi,

We might be going to this with our Jakey, cocker x. Our trainer wants my boys to do the bronze with him there. I will get confirmation if we are going when we start back at dog training 3 Sept.

Should be great, quite away for us to travel though.

Entries need to be post marked on or before the 10th August...so you've still got a few days to make decisions!!!  Monty and I will be there cheering from the sidelines for half of the Current Pet of the Month Champion!!!...(though I think 'Go Bella' has got a better ring to it!)...and any other COLer who needs supporting with pom-poms and rhyming chants!!

The agility comp starts hideously early - I have to be there at 7.45am on the Sunday morning to register and then the competitions start at 8.30 (the rest of Paws in the Park doesn't even open till 10am!). But I suspect we won't be competing till a bit later on as it's the large and medium classes before us (pint-size Bella is in the Mini's, small but perfectly formed!  ).

I heard at the class this week though that one of the judges sets really hard courses so I hope we're not in his competition...   

I have to do lots of work on Bella's weaving over the next few weeks, she gets too excited about it and is so busy yapping her head off she doesn't concentrate properly so I need to get her to calm down a bit - she's fine on the rest of it (a bit wibbly on the seesaw but still does it fine) but those pesky weaves...

Have you got a set of weaves at home to practice with, Claire? Molo came on in leaps and bounds once we practised a few times a day

Yes, I've got a set - not as many as we do at the class though (about 8 poles but we do more like 12 at the class). I plan to start tonight if I can keep Zorro out of the way. It definitely helped when I practised her jumping at home - before that she used to stop and bark before every jump, took a long, long time to get round the course  but she stopped doing that once I was able to work at home with a clicker.

So....... how are we all going to identify each other?  Sounds like quite a few of us will be there!
So far it looks like green ribbon on collars..... any other ideas or shall we stick to that?

Wouldn't it be better to have green ribbon round the leads easier seen then ?

[Dotties Mum]

Are all the COLer's going on the Saturday or the Sunday then?

[gashley]

If i am definately going i should be there both days, i will know more at the start of sept when i go back to obedience classes.

[MontyMoo]

Sorry guys just only just seen this.  I've started a chain to add names to for attendance on either saturday or sunday, it's on the COLPIT Park thread...I also just managed to suggest Orange ribbons  Oooops....!!! xx

[Penelope]

Ok anyone with any orange or green and I will come and say HELLO!

[Brimbeck(Dyllan)]

In fact any ribbon I find at scool will have to do!

Here's a link to the thread for the list of attendees.....
