Well firstly thankyou to the judges and competitors at the Hartley Trail We were only there for a short time but got to see the elite dogs compete. I would have stayed all day but we had a litter at hoe to get back too and I had to work that night and had only just got off night duty. Its wonderful to watch a dog do what he is bred for. I feel the bug for retrieval
My boy Kupa was very keen and we have been practicing for the RATG Novice trail next weekend. He gets over excited but I think we have had a bit of a breakthrough this after noon and his stays while throwing the dummy are better - I doubt we will pass but all I can say is we will give it a go and for me I get a chance to see how things should be done. So I am looking forward to next weekend
