Lulu & Minnie

 In november we had first snow and the dogs were super happy about it! But then the show melted and one day Lulu came back inside like this!! Actually, she is a cutie as long as she can be on the couch :) Minnie sleeping :D On 24th November Minnie had her birthday! She got 2 years old! She got cake and both doggos enjoyed some ice cream :) With her precious birthday gift:

Another weekend, another competition. Still in Vastse-Kuuste, this time the judge was Keida Raamat. I found her courses nice and tricky.  This time jumping courses first. First course was more or less okay. There was a tricky place where we fell :) The course turned, but the handler was blocked by the wall, so the dog really could not see well. But straight ahead was tunnel, that was a no go. I did not call Minnie enough in time and she went for the tunnel. DSQ. Second course, again tunnel trap. That Minnie went for - I did not turn my shoulder nor I called. So obviously she went for it. DSQ.  At least I was happy that I understood my mistakes. Thirdly, an agility course.

Result clean run and 1st place .  2nd agility course: I had dilemma in my handling around the dog walk. I was not very sure of the flipping command. Because the plan was to go for a bling after the tunnel (after the dog walk and jump), then I stopped running after the dog walk - that made Minnie to turn toward me and she took the wrong jump. DSQ .   1st jumping course: There was a tricky place where three jumps (one of them a wall) all together. I was making a handling mistake, not calling Minnie and kept my hand out, that lead her o to straight to tunnel and not to the jump. DSQ . Rest of the course was nice! 2nd jumping course: Although I forgot my handling in couple of times. It went well and we got first ...
