Bring on Christmas
So, with Christmas around the corner M had her christmas obedience party, and decided to take Maverick (humph!)
It was going to be BIG as there are now 20 dogs taking classes with the obedience group...
We had party games, fancy dress, presentations of awards and even a visit from santa for the pawsome doggies..
Here's maverick in his prize winning outfit...
Maverick has also now completed his final agility competition of 2015 and even though he travelled with L and Willow again this time his performance was not good....
He had some really nice bits but due to the weather it was difficult to go out for exercise and he's really turned off to weaves... more practise over the holidays M thinks!!
This lovely weather turned into 4-5 inches of snow and with no snowploughs or gritters anywhere to be seen a 1 3/4 hr journey took 4 hours to get home.... roll on January!!

Competitions
Well I don't know where the last couple of months have gone, they have flown by and M says we are nearly at Christmas...
We are both still competing and M was very proud of Maverick who managed to complete his first full competition without any eliminations..
Here is a video of his first clear, thanks to L and Willow (M thinks Willow is a calming influence as we car shared to the competition this time)
I however have been even better last weekend I competed just for one day as it was a busy weekend and out of my four runs I managed four 1st!
M was ecstatic and especially so when she realised that I'd won out of grade 2 to grade 3!! (unfortunately that does mean that Maverick is also grade 3)
Maverick has one more competition before Christmas and then its onto the New Year....
