Lulu & Minnie

 We went to the sea to swim. Lulu was a natural swimmer! Lulu and Pärli! Friends: Orr on a walk: All my small ones sleeping on a hot day :) Beautiful Lulu

On the last weekend of august we went to Pärnu to an agility competition with Lulu. It was 2 day event. Judge was Emma Broberg. 1DAY 1. course. Lulu ran passed from a jump, which cost us time and -5. Speed 4.24 m/s and 3rd place. 2. course Lulu did a clean run with speed 4.81 m/s. She do not like to go far from me so she runs with my speed :) 2 place. All together we got 3rd place. 2DAY 1 course. Clean run with speed 4.63 m/s and 2nd place. 2. course  DSQ, I wanted to gain a bit of distance but she passed the jump and by the time I called her back she went already in the tunnel.  Altogether 4 place.

 20.08.2022 we went first time to compete with Lulu to RK3 class. In RK3 class there is right sided handling and 1.5 minute stay. It was Luluś 4th official competition. So how we did. Not as good as I would have hoped. Judge Karin Lassmann. 1. course.  We got:  7x -1 - all the little looking around :) 4x -3 - all the longer looking arounds :) 1x -5 (in spiral) 1x 10 (at a sign that I thought went very well, but i did not checked the sit and i think i started to move before she actually managed to sit). Sorry for this mistake. And -10 for not staying put...that was expected cause I had not practised it before. And as it turned out then the fact that i was not moving was very confusing for Lulu.  All together 56 points. 2. course. It started out quite good, but then she ran out of gas...it was  a real stuggle to get her moving and all the minuses we got from this lack of cooperation - because she do not sniff, bark, do not do a wrong move, she just looks around :D...

 In the middle of august i got an tattoo representing all my wheatens. Based on my own drawing that is based on their photos:

On the last day of July Lulu took part of an unofficial agility competition called Säde cup in Elva. Judge Monika Adamson.  Planned were 4 courses, 2 were just tube tunnels and two jumping.  So first tube courses, first was nice and clean. On the second one she did not go one one tunnel (that I didn't see) so we lost lot of time by going back. Videos here: We got 1st place on both courses with 1st place combined:  Then jumping courses came and we did not do that well. There was a chance to re-run courses with the best result counting. I had to use this on both of the courses. In first time it worked because on the rerun we got a clean run ( 1st place ).  But on the second run we got DSQ and also DSQ on the re-run. I think she was just tired. She refused to take jumps and tunnels.  But still with 2 courses combined we got 2nd place . Lulu with her earned prizes:

Cute Lulu: Orr: With Lulu in Saaremaa: With friend Grace: Orr took the baby bed: Lulu having a herbal massage: And July ended with a happy happy birthday celebration for Orr, who turned 13 years old!!  

 We went to 2 different agility competitions in July. Still again in the unofficial A0 class.  First one was an two-day event in Saaremaa, Kuressaare.  Judge was Vendula Hausnerová. So in first day, 23 July , on the first course we got 3x refusal, that means DSQ. On the second course we got clean run and 2nd place .   Video of the runs: A bit obedience as part of the warm up: On the second day, 24 July , The first course was clean and 1st place!   On the second run she knocked two bars down and missed a tube tunnel entry (refusal). So all together that gave us -15, but still 1st place. Video of the two runs: Lulu needs to have more confidence to take the obstacles alone. Now she needs lot of support.
