Massive well done to the Saturday advanced crew who ventured into the world of Talking Dogs rally today at Risby. Thank you to Lucy Elizabeth Dawson for hosting a lovely friendly rally.

Massive well done to Sonia and Tessa and Tilly, Julia Kuivenhoven and Talyn who got a qualifying score in their first TD rally - amazing - and, of course, to my Danny, who was his usual cheeky self, and didn't do a bad job getting an ace score (even if 10% of his brain power was focused on checking what the signs looked like close up! 🤣) I'm so proud of these guys on going out and having a go, however challenging it is...here's to your next go at rally ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Danny has had to temporarily take over from Baby as our 'stooge dog' working with reactive or over aroused dogs. Whilst he is not ideal for this job - being an 18 month old baby and rather over excitable himself for a stooge - he did an AMAZING job yesterday with Figgy the anxiety related reactive Romanian rescue. As you can see, she decided Danny wasn't as scary as she'd though - onwards and upwards but huge well done to Danny, Figgy and Lisa - Figgy's owner ❤️🐾

What a weekend

Uffspring Undreamed Of RL2EX - 6th place at level 2 - excellent score and qualifying score at level 3

Uffspring Unmistakable AWS - 2 wins at agility/ jumping - takes him to grade 7 agility.

I've driven from home to Leicester for the rally and then back to Thetford for the agility and then home!

Amazing! ❤️💙

HENRY - UFFSPRING UNMISTAKABLE AWS - GOES GRADE 7!!!!

Henry is my first competitive agility dog and he's taken me from grade 1 in 2021 following the covid lockdowns to grade 7 in 2024 - it's taken us just over 3 years to achieve this, slightly hampered by the fact that Henry was 7 when we started and is now 10 1/2 years old!

My ambition was to win out of grade 1 - which we did at one show with 3 wins in agility and jumping. The next barrier to our ambition was winning out of grade 2! There is always some brilliant young dogs and experienced handlers in grade 2 and we were complete amateurs and Henry just couldn't get near them on time. We eventually won our of both grade 2 and grade 3 on points - often taken from 2nd or 3rd places (clear rounds only of course) where we were beaten on time. Our next obstacles was that you can't win further than grade 4 on points - you have to win out from grade 4 to 7 on wins and these have to be clears in the fastest time. Our one advantage by this stage was that Henry had the skills to get clears on very complex, testing courses that other, faster dogs made mistakes on - even if he couldn't beat other dogs on time, he could beat them on skill.

Our next problem was that, as Henry got older, he got slower. All courses in agility have a maximum course time and he often just couldn't complete the course within the course time, resulting in 'clear' wins but with time faults - this is sometimes more annoying than not getting a clear round! We've had LOTS of these!

We won up to grade 6 last summer at QSAT show on pretty much the only hot day of the year and then needed 5 wins - 3 in agility and 2 in jumping - to get to grade 7. We actually got 4 of the wins pretty quickly by the end of the summer but were then chasing our final agility win all through the winter indoor shows with no luck. This weekend was our first outdoor show and Henry's feet touched the grass and he was ecstatic - he loves agility on grass - and, with the wind behind him he got a clear within the course time in grade 6 and 7 agility and we'd done it - grade 7! He then won the jumping class just for good measure too! All at QSAT show where he won into grade 6 last year.

It's been quite a journey. We've made loads of friends, been to some brilliant shows, learnt loads of new skills, and had so much fun! Henry - on top of all his wind and places - has made it to 3 different agility finals of which he has been runner up in 2 of them and got points towards the ABC novice cup (before being out with an injury) but didn't quite make it to Crufts (agility) - sadly. He's taught me loads but I wouldn't be here without some amazing trainers Emma Conlisk - who started this when Henry was a few months old - Kerry Abbott - at the beginning of our journey Helen Postle - who gave us brilliant lessons by video during covid and Lynne Gressler - who has taken us from grade 1 to grade 7 - and many others.

To put all this in perspective - rough collies are definitely NOT ideal agility dogs - none of my collies before have ever had the drive for agility - and I believe that Henry is only the 2nd rough collie to make it to grade 7 EVER!!! Henry was the only surviving puppy from a litter we bred 10 1/2 years ago. He's also been a big winning show dog - he won a best puppy in show at an all breeds show as a puppy, done obedience (badly!), trick training and is a PAT therapy dog. On top of all this we are just a few points off his gold agility warrant 🤞🤞🤞

I owe this strange dog so much - his love of agility (and toys) is inspiring - he doesn't love much else other than agility! He's definitely my dog of a lifetime. We'll carry on having fun as long as he's still enjoying it!

Thank you Henry ❤️🐾

Lovely beach walk today with Baby, Henry and Danny.

Naughtiest dog award this week goes to Henry - he's not too bothered about other dogs but he had to play the full on Lassie card and go and check up on someone sitting down on the beach! They were just having a nice sit down, Henry needed to make sure no one had fallen down a well!!!!

Clever Anna the Romanian rescue puppy passed her IMDT puppy grade this week - well done 👏👏👏
