Mad Mutts - Hearing Dogs

Jem was a bit naughty to start with today, she was really eyeballing the other lane but she didn't run across thanks to lots of shouting from me - apologises to anyone on the line whilst we were racing!! The morning started eventfully with me falling flat on my arse in the warm up and then later in the morning elliot somehow managed to run smack into Lisa and she did a spectacular flip over the top of him - luckily both were OK, Lisa was just a bit winded and Elliot bless him was really confused and thought he had be grabed to do a re-run so went up the lane after jamie, got very confused as to why he didn't have a ball when he got back to the box, but he came back down the lane again without it!! Jem was much better in the afternoon and was running up and back nicely without looking at the other lane :) We gave her some warm ups in the red lane but didn't brave racing her in it - not sure when we will do this, hopefully one day but it is hard to know when as we don't want to subject the other team to her interfering if she does decide to be naughty, but equally we wont know unless we try - unfortunately today both times we were in the red lane the other team werent warming up and this meant she didnt have the other dogs to look at anyway!! Elliots boxes were a bit rubbish to start, but got better after Nat did some turns with him and apparently for some unknown reason they are even better when I run him :) I was much better on my starts and changeovers today as well and jem even did a rerun without eating jamie on his way out, and to top the day we won all our races and finished first :) All in all a great day, and hopefully one of many more for us and flyball :)
