Dog Dancing Show - Angel !!

This morning me and Angel headed off to the 'Royal Jersey Showground' to take part in a doggy dancing competion! It is held once every 2years ... So i thought i would give it a go, and i am pleased i did.

I was entered in 'Starters Freestyle' The song i performed to was 'Grease - We go together' It is a nice up-beat song =)

The result ........ 1st!! I was the only Jersey competitor all the other's mostly being from Belgium which was great so meet new people, who were all really nice. I am over the moon that Angel won because we have been doing it for many years now and she deserves it :)

We also took part in the evening show which is open to the public (this was very nerve racking!!) But it wasn't to bad in the end.


I love these photo's of Angel with her trophie (just look at the faces she pulls haha) ...

Angel doing her Elvis impression (which she does very well )

Tired Angel waving lol

Paws Agility Show

Today i had Angel entered into 5 classes at the paws show. She ran well in the first class (helter skelter) But i felt as if she was struggling when jumping near the top of the course it was if she was stuff, but later in the day this seemed to dissapear.

Angel does NOT like running in the rain, and there was quite a few showers during the day but luckly the weather was on our side and we just managed to dodge the rain during our runs woo =)

One problem that was occuring was her .... Weaves!!!! I think it is because i don't trust her to get her entry in the ring but in training i will let her find the entry independenatly (I must stop getting in her way) She can do the weaves perfectly as long as i let her find the entry instead of me using my hands to guide her in! On a more positive note her speed has really improved in the weaves so i am very pleased =)



Overall it was a really good day Angel was running well so i am very pleased! She is shattered now though and we have a Heelwork to music competition tomorrow so plently of rest for her tonight unfortunately it means missing agility tomorrow but the Heelwork to music competion is only once every 2years over here so i can't really miss it! I will post tomorrow on how the competition went.


I have got 2 of her runs on video, unfortuantely i didn't get the last class on video which was pairs which she got a 1st in.



It won't let me upload the video yet - I will try and get them on asap
