A FANTASTIC weekend of agility at the
NADAC
Nationals. Skye showed that she's not
ready for retirement yet, by picking up fifteen qualifiers over the weekend
- nine first places and five second places! Not to be outdone,
Kailey had some blisteringly fast rounds
to pick up eleven qualifiers - also with nine first places and a second!
We won the overall award for most successful on the weekend.

A quick trip to Sydney for the Toller
Breed Feature at the United Retriever Club show and trial.
Buzz was Puppy of Breed, and
Kailey showed her style by coming first in
Masters Jumpers and also winning the overall Top Agility Toller trophy.
A great weekend to catch up with lots of tollers and celebrate the twentieth
anniversary of Tollers in Australia! |

The Melbourne Royal is over for another
year. Took Kailey in to
compete in agility today, and so very proud of her for picking up Second
Place in Masters Jumpers (First Place 400 height). The Royal is
a tough day out for the dogs, and Kailey had a wonderful time being cuddled
and patted by all of the crowds, even managing to get some new stuffed toys
from passers by who thought she was too cute to argue with! |

Toller day at the Melbourne Royal.
Took young Buzz in for his first royal show
and he took it all in his stride, charming the crowds and loving all the
attention. Very proud of him for picking up Puppy of Breed for the
day. |

At the Horsham Show,
Phoenix wins Best of Breed to finish her
Australian Show Championship. Very pleased that she has been
able to finish so quickly, with only a few months of showing.
Now it's on to the fun things, when she gets to begin agility trialling in
2012! |
