Fred takes the Lead

Chi & Fred's debue went exceptionally well last week. Looking like a truly professional team they stepped up to the mark and after only 1 month of intensive training came flying home with a 2nd place rosette. Most impressive start. My Mum always say's 'start as you mean to go on' Fred so I think this bodes well for the season :)

But most importantly Chi gets to do his most favorate thing & someone else is introduced to the fun of building & having a unique partnership that they can bring to the agility field. A chance to enjoy such a brilliant sport.

Here they both are in action. 1st the Helta Skelta ..........

........then the agility.

Watch this space for more fun & action from Chi & Fred

EO - Germany

GO GB!! And GRATZ to:-

Bernadette & Hex 3rd Small Individual
Big dog team 3rd
Liah Gardner 2nd large Individual
Andy Sandercock 1st Medium Jumping

Gr8 achievements considering some of the circumstances - See OBay blog for a good write up of the whole event.

Yes it was fab to represent GB
Yes it was fab we had such good support from The Kennel Club, trip payed for uniforms provided
Yes our fans were the best any country could wish for
& yes people were extremely hacked off with what seemed like completely unnecessary travelling. There was unnecessary stress caused to handlers & dogs.

But on a lighter note some photos............



Chi in his crate for the journey



Tracy & Barry


Thank you Nic Josty for this photo - I love it it shows me queuing Chi for the turn and Chi taking the long jump on the turn - fab!



International team OBay - left to right, Hex, Chi & Unique from Denmark. Chi's half brother One from Denmark was also competing. Unique won the small Individual event.
They are all covered in mud coz it rained - very heavily!

I was very proud of Chi he ran extremely well and gained a 16th / 169 in the medium jumping event.

Hinckley Champ Show - 1stly Gratz to 'sister' Hex she is now a Champ! Well done gals :) Gratz also to Roger the intrepid Dutch man & our team mate at last years International Sheltie Championship, who won into grade 7.

Chi was on top form - I had a bad attitude problem, probably brought on by having to get up at 5am, drive 130 odd miles and not win MY ticket!!!! :) It's coming our way very soon I can see it it bright neon lights - Chi, Obay Truly Focused Champion Certificate.

We continue to get as much training, massaging & focusing in as we can in preparation for the European Open. The full time job's getting in the way tho :(

P'haps when sister Zennie does her prayers she coudl ask for a lottery win for her brother
