Glad you got your walk and bet the doggies were too, we stopped on the way home too, but at Halliburton woods near Coupar Angus. Poor Ben was shattered!
Yeah it was a really nice walk, just a shame we didn't have time to hang around and explore the woods a bit more. Next time though. I think those kind of events are really tiring for dogs, as all their sense are being stimulated. Yogi was tired too, but still enjoyed a ball game with the others when I got home

The standard was better overall, the obedience more accurate and more dogs cleared the jumps. The sendaways were a lot better with the added difficulty of a re-direct. The bitework was harder and more committed, there were fewer 'dirty' bites in the hold and bark, but there were the same difficulties with the recall from the criminal.
Were there more competitors too? I would love to have been there again. Did you take any photos?

Yogi's really coming on
That's quite a jump!
lol - well they are just dogs at the end of the day (albeit very highly trained), not robots
Yogi loves jumping now

LOL - he is as daft as a brush
