Greetings From Germany
Early morning start tomorrow means I can’t write much. Team Canada is the first team to practice at the FCI World Championship venue so we have a breakfast call at 5:30 AM and on the bus at 6:15 AM. Here is a video I put together of our day today. Great practice all around. The [...]

All ready to head out to Germany. The girls are prepared, my back is back to 100%, bring on the world! Getting into the spirit of the event I had my toes painted. Last year I coloured my hair to match my dog. That didn’t go over so swell with Johnny B:). This year I [...]

Well, we leave for Germany for the FCI championships in just 6 days. Our team flies out on Sunday evening from various airports across Canada and we all meet up in Frankfurt when we arrive Monday morning. My dogs and I are ready to go. Last week we got the running orders for the event. [...]
Read more“Back” At It!
I have been away from the blog for the past week or so — mostly a forced absence. My back decided it was a good time for me to “take a break.” My back has dictated forced “downtime” in my life in the past. Of course with this lay up coming only a few days [...]

Today kicks off the first day of the AAC Nationals. John and I did some sightseeing yesterday with John and Lynda Hill and all our dogs (well, the ones that we have out here in Calgary). It was a wonderful day in the Rockies as these pictures will prove. Recallers, you all should be able [...]
Read moreBig Trial Prep: 5 Days Out
We will be leaving for the Canadian National Agility Championships next Wednesday AM so the countdown begins. Five days out so I have to squeeze in some training between the rest of my life. Today’s to do list: Morning work out (I have been naughty and not as regular as I should (only once in [...]
Read more“Wow!” On So Many Levels
This weekend was another fabulous Canada Cup competition. And it was wow, amazing as it is every year. There is always the threat that this event will go away as entries are inconsistent at best. The weekend is so much work for our hosts Susan and Adrian to take on, but it is almost like [...]
Read moreThe Count Down Begins . . .
Rushing around making sure everything works before we open up registration to the new e-course, I am still hoping it will happen before the end of this week, cross your fingers. We had our CKC Agility Team Canada practice last week followed by a fundraiser trial on the weekend. Thanks to everyone that turned out [...]
