Lulu & Minnie

We started our agility training with Lulu from March (she was 5 months) once a week, 2 months later we added one more training to a week. She has been excellent student, I do not train home enough but somehow she still knows what to do :) In handling, she also have to learn how to read my mind, cause Im not very clear :) For now we try simple handling, finally she does tunnels, we are in the medium high of the see-saw. and our running dog-walk is low plank.  Here are some videos from our training. Here is 2 months agility training (04.05.2021), one of the first times outside and trying to do multiple obstacles: 14.07.2021. Already 4 months of training behind us: 25.07.2017. See-saw training: 15.08.2021. Another see-saw session: 31.08.2021. Handling: 19.09.2021. 6 months training and starting the weaves channel method. Also, our running contacts have gone on the actual dog-walk part :) We are having so much fun with Lulu at the agility! We both LOVE it!

 Lulu made her debut in rally obedience. Although she is still quite young and not maybe quite ready to compete.  The biggest obstacle for us was new field + not enough candy :) Judge Irina Popjonoka 04.09.2021 1. course.  -1 p from 2. sign - pulling leach. -1 p from 3rd sign - sniffing -3 p from 4th sign - leash...sniffing -1 p from 5th sign - sniffing  -5 p from the 6th sign - sniffing the cone and when exiting then she was sniffing the place where previous dog was peeing.

 Lulu went to her last junior class dog hows in 22-23.08.21 We got both day surprisingly Very Good . Balt W , judge Maite Gonzalbo Lorenzo: " 10 month, she needs more time to develop. fem. head, good neck, square body. angul. back bit straight and movemen...? ...back jumping. puppy coat-quality, puppy temper". BaltTer , Maria-Luise Doppelreiter: " nice young girl, nice head, a bit steep in shoulders, in movement rather erratic, needs more training, coat has to improve, sweet character. "  Next time she goes into the dog show ring is in open class, about 2.5 yr old.

 Lulu went first time to coursing. I did not know what to expect from her. But she was amazing, got the idea instantly and she had lots of fun to run 2 times!  We will be back!

 09.07.2021 Judge Vladimir Vukosavljevic. Description: Good size & proportions, typical feminine head, correct mouth, correct body, easy movement, coat and presentation must be better prepared for the show . Excellent 1 without certificate.  Yes I must say that Lulu was very confused of all this dog show ring action, because it was the very first time to be in the ring. She even managed to escape from the show leash..but she was so confused that even did not go anywhere so it was easy to put the leash back on :) 10.07.2021 In the morning we were lucky to go under very experienced wheaten groomer who did some fixes. Judge Ligita Zake . Description: n ice feminine, cor. proportions, headlines ok, topline and body ok, cor. angulated, cor. coat for the age.  Excellent 1, JUN SERT , BOSJ , BOS ! Lulu was much more confident in the ring today and posed nicely to the judge. Only movement was now also a bit too "confident" - wanted to start to run :) Photos from the second ...

Lulu is 6 months now she has grown a lot. Just with 4 months she has become from 3kg to 11kg (still only half of Orr 😊). She is amazingly patient with Pärli, sharing toys with her.
