Well done to Flying Spaniel and Abbie on their first clear round at Severnside yesterday  :shades: :luv:

A cracking little dog that is going to go far me thinks  :D

Thanks guys, not bad for a show cocker & my first agility dog, I just need to keep learning at a fast rate to do her justice I think.
Was lovely to meet Tigs and Anna, I'm just glad that Abby's small!!
Looking forward to seeing more COL people at shows and sharing training tips and techniques. I know I struggled in the earlier days with finding people who understood spaniels and what motivates them so it's definitely good to have like minded people a post away (or so to speak).

Well done you - are you quite local to the south west then as if so will probably see you at some shows.

Fantastic feeling getting that first clear round!!

Anna are you going to mention if any more first palces with that lovely spaniel of yours??

Rosie - Tigs had one really nice round at Dordale where she was 3rd in the open jumping and was only 0.6 secs of the advanced collie that won it and another advanced collie was second.  I was pleased with that, particularly as she had a slightly wide turn that I could have improved upon  :blink:

Apart from that 3rd she had two 1sts, two 2nds, another 3rd and a 4th this weekend  :D  She was a bit naughty for sniffing at Severnside but still came 2nd in the steeplechase where the only time she took her nose off the floor was to go over each jump  ::)  I think she was a bit tired as it was her third day competing in a row and she is only a baby.  Also today her ears seem to be bothering her so she is off to the vets in the morning.

A weekend off now before Worcester the following one

We're doing Phoenix & Aldon, would be a crime to miss them on the doorstep, so see some of you there.

Anna, I hope Tigs ears are OK?

The vet said that I have caught it really early so she will be as right as rain in no time  :D
