Doing my bit and trying to help make a difference...
Got e-mailed this today, and think that it is a really worth while cause...so decided to put it on here in hope that anybody who reads this blog will take the time to watch it and write a letter! Not much to ask to try and help save these poor dogs!

Fallen off the edge of the world!!!!
Sorry for the lack of posts!
Well we've been away nearly the whole of August at various shows (I will post videos, pictures and results later!)
We've had a great time away, the dogs have been great, and we've had A LOT of laughs!
Now I have to actually do some hard work to make up for the time off....so here are the next few months plans....
I'm away in Wales looking after my mum's over October, so from the 7th Oct - 30th Oct I will be available for private agility lessons up there.
The following will be held at Many Tears Animal Rescue can be found at
Cwmlogin House
Cefniethin
Llanelli
Carmarthenshire
SA14 7HB
11th October-training day covering course handling and analysing, motivation, contacts, weaves (entries) and obstacle discrimination.
12th October-Pre-competition training. For dogs who are almost at the competition age. Covering weaves (channel available), contacts, motivation etc
the following will be held at Indoor sand school. Chafford Farm,
Chafford Lane,
Fordcombe,
Kent,
TN3 0SH
22nd November-grade 5-7 training day. Covering course walking/handling, contacts, weave entries and motivation
29th November-Taster Day, for people and dogs who have never done agility.
30th November-Anju Agility Simulated show.......This is a fun and friendly show open to all abilities……at our show we encourage training in the ring, and will allow you to use food and toys!
The way it works:
You will get 2 goes at the same agility course and 2 goes at the same jumping course, which means you can train one round and go for the next if you wish. All the courses will be set at a “nice” level.
If you use toy’s or treats in one round that will be classed as a “not for competition round”, if you do it without aids then there are rosettes and prizes to be won!
If you wish to run your large dog over small or medium that is fine (we are very chilled out!), but to keep it fair on the smalls and mediums competing you will be not for competition.
It will be judged as grades 1-4 small, medium and large and then 5-7 small, medium and large.
Open to dogs 16 mths and above.
There will be tea, coffee and cakes available.
£10 per dog (four runs) 10am start.
13th December-Anju Agility Christmas show-As before
4th January 2009-Anju Agility New year show-as before

European Opens
Well it all came round so quickly.... Thursday arrived and Jay, Herbie and I set off to Dover to catch the bus. We caught the Ferry and then started to drive to Germany. We had a great laugh on the way there, and got to know everybody. On Friday we had a practice session at the venue. On the way there (as we were at a hotel 1 hour and 15 mins away!)the bus driver got lost a few times, and we arrived 2 hours later....
All the dogs worked so well in the practice session, and Andy and Greg helped format it, which was very useful! Later that day we did a parade of the countries.
Sat.....
The big day. The Individuals.....
The way they worked is a bit like a Champ class, an agility round and a jumping round, and then the top 3 from each country goes through to the final.
Herb did a fantastic jumping round and was one of two clears, but then we got E'd in the agility! I thought we had no hope of going through to the final, but due to the courses catching out a few people, and our first good round we scraped in!
Like a Champ you run in reverse order of how you qualify, I was running 3rd out of everybody!!!!
Herb ran brilliantly and then we waited........At the end we found out we came 2nd and had won the silver for Britain!!!!!!!!! Bernadette and Hex got Bronze in the smalls as well!!!!
Here is a video of the day....
Sunday.....Teams
Here is a Video of how it went....We ended up 16th overall (not too bad i think!)
Well done to Marc, Ant, Katie and Lee for winning Bronze in the teams!!!!!!
Here are some other peoples runs....
Ant and magic
Marc and dash
Katie and rocky
Lee and Jack
Dave and Dobby
