GRADE 5!
Floss got her last win towards G5 at Inspire Agility on 7th November 2021! Super happy and so proud of my best girlie - this was our goal for 2021 so absolutely chuffed that we've achieved it!
First ever hoopers show!
In October, Floss, Wisp and I competed in our first ever hoopers show! They super impressed me, working so well running in a new venue, on a new surface and with new equipment. Floss got 3 x 1st places; Wisp got 2 x 2nd places and 1 x 3rd place. Their confidence grew with each course they ran and really started to open up some speed. Best girls!
FLOSS GOES GRADE 4!
So proud of my absolute superstar, Floss, getting the much desired last agility win to G4 at Agility Vision on 8th August 2021. She was fantastic in all her runs, acing some tricky threadles and fast backside blinds (keeping the poles up!) and my heart is fit to burst with pride!
It was also Wispy's last show at G2 and she pulled out 2 lovely agility clears with 1st place in one and 3rd in the other.
GRADE 3 FOR WISP!
At Phase Purple's July show, Wispy won into G3 with a super agility win in the first class of the show. After just 6 shows, she's also managed to gain enough points for her agility warrant bronze already! She's had a total of 26 clear rounds so far since she started competing at the end of May - what a little superstar! Couldn't ask for more from my super baby dog!
Wisp's first ever agility show!
On 29th May 2021, Wisp had her first ever runs at her first agility show. She was fantastic! We went with the aim to just have fun and be happy in the ring. Of course, she exceeds my expectations as always and pulls out her first ever clear round in the jumping and a clear in the steeplechase as well as the most beautiful first agility run I could have ever wished for, nailed her running A frame with a tricky blind and sharp left turn off it, drove right to the end of the seesaw, listened intently to every cue then her silly handler blocked her weave entry right at the very end of the run (still kicking myself!) so we got 5 faults. She was so cool around the show ground too - politely greeting lots of dogs/people, brilliant in the queue, calmly but intently watching others run. She was an absolute pleasure to have by my side. Excited for the future with her!
OGHA Platinum x2
Mother-daughter power duo strike again!
​
This time, they've both aced the very top level of the online good hoopers awards - platinum level (where most of the exercises were done with the handler sat in a chair away from the equipment)!
​
Clever girls took it all in their stride and made me super proud. They both give 110% effort in everything they do, love to learn new things and further their skills. They make the best teammates I could ever wish for!
19th February 2021
Online Good Hoopers Awards
During lockdown, we've been unable to do much agility so we decided to use this time to work more on our hoopers skills! Floss has done a bit before (a few sessions last year) but Wispy hasn't done anything other than a little bit of hoop value when she was a pup so super proud of how quick she picked it all up. On 6th February 2021, Floss and Wisp both passed their OGHA Gold after passing their foundation, bronze and silver too (all in just 3 weeks!). This has been a great opportunity to work on some distance handling, independence and forward drive which will be very helpful for when we can get back to agility!
GRAND CHAMPIONS
On 20th January 2021, both Floss and Wisp were awarded the brand new Trick Dog Grand Champion Title (TDGCH)! They were amongst a handful of dogs to achieve the title on the first day of release. So proud of my incredible girls. You can see their submission videos on our Youtube Channel.
EXPERT TRICK DOG
Stillmoor Magical Blue ETD
​
Mr Mouse achieved his Novice, Intermediate, Advanced and Expert Trick Dog titles in one go on his 2nd birthday (20th January 2021)! Clever boy worked hard to achieve this and we're really proud of him.
Masters Trick Dog Titles
On 17th January 2021, Floss and Wisp each achieved their Novice, Intermediate, Advanced and Expert Masters titles. These are new titles where more tricks are needed at each level (30 novice, 20 intermediate, 10 advanced and 10 expert). The girls flew through them in one go - super kids! This brings Floss up to a total of 11 trick titles and Wisp has 10!
Photoshoot
On 13th December 2020, the kids posed beautifully for a photoshoot with Chris Hall shoots! Despite the intense Cumbrian wind and rain, Chris kept us all smiling and the dogs loved him. They were natural posers and made us all really appreciate their stays in a variety of poses. Wisp, in particular, was loving her taster into a potential modelling career. Thank you Chris for the amazing photos which have kitted out my new website and covered the walls in my house and for all your hard work surrounding the shoot!
Floss, Chester and Casper
On 21st September 2020, mum Floss, son Chester and dad Casper had a little get together to have a catch up and do some agility. What a great day! Always a pleasure to see stunning boy Casper but a real treat to get to run him round the course myself. So proud of the loving, handsome young adult Chester has become with a faultless temperament and superb attitude to life (he's so tall too!).
Thank you Amy Williams for this lovely photo.
CHAMPION!
