A day out :)

Yesterday we attended my agility and trick training clubs show. I took Florin to compete in the trick training, Cash and Eliza for the agility (even though it has been nearly a year since they have done any) and Whoopi came for the ride. The agility went much as I expected, Cash and Eliza had great fun but we had a couple of mistakes in each course so no ribbons there. Florin didn't have a good day. I think it was my fault as we got to the show, quickly let the dogs out to stretch their legs, but as I was helping out they then had to wait in the van. I grabbed her just in time for her turn, so she had no time to acclimatise to the busy and noisy atmosphere and unfortunately she was quite spooked by the whole event and got stage fright, so we ended up just doing a couple of real fun bits and having a bit of a game with her ball instead. Whoopi was the surprise package, at the last minute Graham decided I should take her in the prettiest bitch class which (obviously ) she won :), but then we went on to take Best in Show, which I think was helped by the fact that she sucked up to the judge big time! After that you would expect a lovely picture of Whoopi and her fabulous rosette, but of course I was with Graham and his photo skills (or lack of) are legendary so there is no pic, instead we have the 4 of them letting off a bit of steam at the end of the day :)

Bernards kittens are now exploring, still just toddling and fairly easy to control at the moment, but that won't last!
