Aslan (Boromir of Gondor) and Ronja got their second leg in rally novice - though Ronjas "work" isn't worth writting about.

01.10.2011

Ronja was shown for the very first time. She got a yellow ribbon. What a shame, that means I need to show her again! (Aussies in Denmark need a red og blue ribbon to get their breeding licence).

11.09.2011

Ronja got her first leg in rally novice. 97 point and third winner (the 3 points lost was my fault alone!).

Sirius had his debute in the tuff champion class. He got 76 point and third winner (he needs 97 points to get a leg) ... but I cost him 20 points by doing two exercises wrong!

21. - 24.07.2011

4 days of herding trail in Germany. It was a truly terrible train trip, 4 long days of camping in a field, we both got very tired and I also has a great deal to learn about the ducks especially.

   But the trip was an success. Sirius did such a great job and got so much praise, also - or espceially - from both of the judges :o)

   My beautiful boy got a total of 3 (4) new titles: ATDs (and OTDs), OTDd and STDc and also a leg in ATDd and in OTDc. He was furthermore awarded HIT started, two times HIT open and HIT open the entire trail!!!

   Thanks to the host and the judges: Marti Parrish and Kaye Harris

16. - 17.07.2011

Sirius and I went to Sweden for our very first ASCA herding trails.

   I had entered him in a total of 6 runs (one on each kind of stock per day) and he got 2 qualifying scores on sheep and ducks and one on cattle, dispite some difficult stock - and we can therefore add the titles STDsd to his list of achievements!

Today Sirius got his last leg towards his danish rally obedience championship - DKRLCh.

 

LP1 LP2 RBM RVM DKRLCh.  Marquis Sure Image of Encore 05.12.2000 - 02.06.2011     If it should be that I grow frail and weak And pain does keep me from my sleep, Then will you do what must be done For this, the last battle can´t be won. You will be sad - I understand. But don´t let grief then stay your hand. For on this day, more than all the rest, Your love and friendship, must stand the test. We´ve had so many happy years. What is to come can hold no fears. You´d not want me to suffer so, When the time comes, please let me go. Take me where my needs they´ll tend, Only, stay with me until the end. and hold me firm and speak to me, Until my eyes no longer see. I know, in time, you too, will agree, It is a kindness, you do to me. Although my tail, its last has waved, From pain and suffring I´ve been saved. Don´t grieve that it must now be you, Who has to decide this thing to do. We´ve been so close - we two - these years, don´t let your heart hold any tears.
