Amanda & Zip

Amanda and Zip had a great show at Eastern Bay of Plenty last weekend.

Below is a photo of her in 1st place lineup. They also had a 3rd and a 6th.

Not bad for her 3rd show!!

Kindle's First Agility Champ Show

Well we ventured to Eastern Bay of Plenty last weekend and Kin had her first official Champ starts.
I was thrilled with her - she was so relaxed all weekend and the basics were all great.

She had a couple of 5f rounds in Starters with new gear - one refusal and she dropped one rail due to inexperience - nothing wrong with that! She did however pick up a 4th place in the other starters so that was pretty special.

Her novice rounds were pretty good too the best of which was a 9th place ribbon!

So a good start and with her getting faster with each run I couldn't have been happier :-)

Kindle's Next Step

OK - so after a couple of Jumpers classes, I ventured out with Kin into an agility Ribbon Trial in order to test our contact behaviour in the ring.
I was thrilled with her - her Aframe was slower than at home or training but her behaviour was perfect.
She even recognised the weavepoles and was pretty confident all day.
Huge improvements from our first efforts in Jumpers and a great step forward.
This weekend we have another jumpers comp then our first agility champ show toward the end of the month.
The next few months will produce huge learning curves for both of us I am sure but we're on the right track now..........
