Flyball!!!

Elliot:
Well I can't really say much about him as Nat ran him because we were running the teams for next weekend and both my two are on the same team as I am only going one day (My dissertation is due in in two weeks!!). From what I saw though, after a few dodgy box turns he then sorted himself out (after taking himself off to do one from close up!!) - I will make sure at the comp that he does a close up one when warming up!!

Jemma:
Hmmm, well!! We only had the one lane set up this week so I gradually moved her back so she started closer and closer to the other dogs and then she was going from with in them. She did really well, with only one really wide run up to the lane as she was looking at smartie!! Then, on our last run - same place as before she launched at smartie as we went past and bit my knee instead!! I took her out and made her lie down, although she didn't seem that bothered!! When I let her go I was running between her and the other dogs to act as a barrier and try and focus her but I think I am going to have to rethink this now!!! At the comp she is mainly going to just be doing warm ups, perhaps with the odd run in the red (I think!!) lane depending on how she is behaving!! Either way I shall be letting her go from closer to the start gate, not too close but so that she is not standing with the rest of our dogs!! Wish us Luck!!!
