back again

We were having trouble loging on to the blog for a while but it seems fixed now.
So whats new, we went to the caledonian open show with Paws and I handled her to best of breed. I did the ykc handling but the judge didn't seem to be judging the handling just the dog which happens a lot. We still got third so was happy with that. Will dig out some pics from recent things and ge them on. Paws and Surf are in full season and doing the dirty dancing as my mum calls it a lot. Jason thinks it is funny but not if we have guests!!!! At least Paws will be out for crufts . We are down all 4 days and have best in show tickets too which is great as it wont be on tv this year. Paws is doing breed and ykc handling, Ace is doing htm and wee Buzz is doing agility dog of the year, team agility, obedience and i have a borrowed dog for grooming although next year i will do surf as she is so hairy, well she was , mum took the coat king to her eek!!!! Surfs mum had new babies they are lovely and one has come up to scotland to live.
We are still waiting for surf to grow into her ears but i dont think she ever will!! they are huge - it doesnt mean she listens better though. We think she would like a sheep to play with as my brother and I have four hamster [two babies we just got from rescue] and at night we put them i a rodent paly pen!! surf tries to round them up into their tube , one dog and their hamsters might be a show that would catch on!!! she is so clever. went to a fun agility show and wee paige the resuce rat [actually a papillon but we nicknamed her after the ratatoulie film] got two clears. paige has been a hard work dog as hse was very nervous and hated dogs when we got her but she is coming on now and is getting more confident everyday. proud of her. ace did well and got a 7th and 9th so really happy with him. he is hyper. well will go and see what pics i can find.

happy new year

just wanted to say happy new year to everyone. we went on our usual munster bash today at tentsmuir beach. 17 people and tons of dogs all having a great time. we took paws surf and buzz and are going back tomorrow with the whole gang. it is a fab beach just goes on forever. brill! surf was great herding all the munsters up. it was also a lovely day weather wise - cold but dry and no wind. next thing for me is the new years trek on the 2nd. 100 horses and ponies from the yard all go out round the area for 4 hours. it is great fun but all the horses get hyper and kermit hasnt been before because he only got backed in january for the first time so fingers crossed he behaves himself. will put pics on after it. have fun .

merry christmas

training day

just been to a training day in perth. it was freezing cold minus 8 at one point. just had ace as the skc said only one dog. the stuff was a bit basic so wish i had taken one of the younger dogs instead as ace was a bit above the standard that was there for agility and obedience and handling isnt his thing!!! it was great to catch up and see friends we hadnt seen for a while. caitlin and her bro glenn had come all the way down from the north of scotland. thats dedication for you. the trainers were all lovely to us kids and dogs and did very well giving up their time to help the scottish juniors . hopefully there will be more of these events to come. it was mentioned to have one before crufts to give us kids a good training session before they go to the big one!!!!
wee surf did her first htm show and boy she was great. i thought she would run away as soon as the lead was off but she stayed in the ring for the whole time and worked so well for a pup. very proud of her. ace had 12 in his class and he came 2nd which was brilliant he only barked 3 times which is such a big improvement for him as he used to bark the whole time.
only one show left this year. its the hpr club of scotland open show on the 20th december. dad says at least it will stop mum shopping that day!!! lol she was not impressed. we will be putting up the tree this week. we always get a real one as mum loves the smell of a real tree. surf has never seen a xmas tree and neither has the kitten so that should be amusing to see. baubles everywhere and a daft cat half up a tree with a collie acting like a fairy!!!! should be fun. will take a pic of kermit this week to introduce him to the world. he galloped off with me this week because a scarey rabbit jumped out of a bush - what a boy, hope he improves with age. he is a lot better in the lesson and is getting better everyday. we are off school tomorrow for st andrews day so will ge tto rid him in the day light ofr a change. usually only see him in the dark.
