Really Good March Cluster

Here is some of the loot from this past Louisville Cluster 2011.
All those awards are WB, BOW for a 3 pt major (Amelia) RWB (Amelia).
BOS from the veterans class over 16 yes you read that right 16 specials with my pride and joy FLIRT then over to the agility ring and got a Q in EX B JWW and the next day a Q in EX B STD. To say the least I was ecstatic, over the top and I got some of the nicest complements telling me they loved watching me show Flirt and this was from some folks I respect so very much.

A Beatiful Day for a Walk at Bernheim Forest

After William, Amelia and Ginger went tracking we took a little stroll around the ponds at Bernheim Forest, it's a BEAUTIFUL day. Walking 5 is much more difficult than walking 4.

Can you believe it?

This is the first post for more than a year, I hope I am better about this blogging stuff in the coming year, that is 2011. Today was a beautiful day and I am so happy I was able to be outside and enjoy it. We had run thrus at Shamrock I took Flirt, Amelia and Ginger out to play and run Miss Flirt in preparation for GLTC's March Cluster. Here is a picture of "Ginger" Mockingbird-Wyncrest's I Believe In Magic sitting quite pretty in the tunnel.

Bernheim Snow Day

I had a wonderful outing with the dogs at Bernheim Forest today. It was peaceful; everything was blanketed with snow and I felt at peace with myself and all around me. I had felt a little bummed about Flirt's rehab as we had a little set back this week but I now feel hopeful that she will have a full recovery and or we will learn to cope with her bicep tendentious. I really think she is having smypothy pains for her handler. :)

Jeter, my funny little dog

Jeter will be 11 years old February 11th, my first cardigan.
My son told me she has selective hearing.
We did an experiment, first just said her name, now she was only 3 feet from me and then I said, "cookie" and she jumped up. Yes I do think she is getting a little hard of hearing but really. :)

A good year

I have to say I am very pleased with the year of 2009; Flirt obtained her MACH, one of the high points in my life. We also qualified again this year for the AKC agility nationals. William got certified in tracking this past weekend with his handler Jim Jenkins and Jeter is feeling so good since I have been giving her adequan injections. For the most part I am a happy person but I do plan on getting in better shape for the 2010 year, I really want to run agility when I'm 60 plus. Flirt is in rehab for bicep tendonitis and I think we are making a nice recovery. I am not always the best when it come to at home treatment, but I do try. Here is wishing everyone one a wonderful 2010.

Funny Thing

It's a funny thing our dogs, I tried moving the placement of where I feed them and messed them all up. Yes they are getting pretty old, one is 11, 10 and 6 and have been eating in the same spot for the number of years they have been alive, well they won the bowls are staying in the general area of where they were.
While I'm at it I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.
