lots to talk about

Well...still no home computer...it sucks....

anyway last weekend we went to calgary for another ckc agility trial. Wicca was a maniac!! She had a great time but I definatly have to work on self control with her. We had a hold up at the start line so we had to wait for quite a while and by the time we were ready to go Wicca was so wound up she was screeching before we even started...I ended up pulling her right off the course when she blew her contact on the wall...I have never had to do that with her...Wicca is a work in progress...
We did have some really good runs though- she earned leg #2 for her novice title.
Scent hurdle was fun- we earned 35 points.....

I have Wicca entered in a couple AAC trials coming up soon so that will be fun- her weaves are awesome and I have been working on building some self control with her-
I have a revised list of things we are going to work on over the winter
-table (fast approaches, no flying off)
-start lines
-tunnel entry discriminations
and jumping
she was really good at the canine center- she had to jump safer and the 12inches made a difference to her...she barely knocked any poles....but I think AAC 10inches will be a lo of knocked bars to start with....
what can I say...I got what I wanted a high drive dog that loves agility....

update

Well- my home computer is still busted.....it sucks....
anyway- thought I would update the blog with news about the beasties.
Kate is still enjoying being a house dog- she hasn't been out to agility or anything for a long while- she is jsut hanging out- keepin' the corgis' and the kitties in line...

Wicca is doing fantastic- I took her to the barn last week- well the week before and got a really good practice with her- Her weaves are fantastic-very consistent. I am excited about trialing her thi upcoming year. I have her entered in another CKC agility trial next weekend that I am pretty excited about- I will take her to the barn next week and work on jumping- with tunnel distractions- she seems to knock bars mostly when there is a tunnel as the next obstacle.....

Sam is so fun- he is such a good boy- a hard worker and really enjoys being with me. I took him to the barn this past week and worked on his contacts- they are coming...his jumping and directions are really great though- I will work with him all winter and have him ready by spring to trial-

We (Go! Dog Go!) are having a christmas party tomorrow which should be a lot of fun....
