So Tim got me a new digi camera for our anniversary (ten years - who'd have thunk it?). I think he was worried I'd keep nicking off with his rather flash (and horribly expensive) Nikon whenever I needed to take pics and he wasn't around. So I got a Canon Ixus 70. Don't ask me …

Cypher’s ET Day
Today Cypher did his Endurance Test with a bit of help from a friend at work who cycles regularly. The ET is basically a 20km test of the dog trotting along side a bike (or you can run it if you're that good) with a bit of basic on lead obedience at the beginning and …
Spryte News and Trialling Days
It’s been a while since I posted - I had been trying to find the time (and, if I’m being honest here, the inclination) to bath young Spryte up proper, give her the full grooming treatment so that I can get some recent (13 month old!) photos to go along with the brag of saying …
The week that was…
Since my last post things have been a tad hectic round here. Last Saturday CAWA held its 30th Anniversary of Independence events (Shows, Obedience and Agility Trials) with a couple of Eastern states judges being contracted. Raven went in UD and was doing quite well up until the signals where she faded and then missed …

Trial-free Weekends
So no trials for the last two weekends in a row. I feel quite strange...and so not physical in any way...think I better do some serious running this week at training or else I am going to be completely exhausted after one run next trial! Raven is again of the "no news is good news" …
Bandanarama!
Got these personalised bandanas sent over from Germany by Tim's Mum for my birthday. Had to do a spontaneous photo shoot of course. They all are looking a bit too intense - as in "Must stare unblinkingly - treat may disappear!" Might have to try and get one where they're all looking a bit more …
Saturday update
Raven still looks okay today. She had one upchuck in the afternoon but nothing serious just a bit of yellow bile. She kept a whole large chicken wing down without any trouble afterwards and was harassing for more! I think the lymph nodes in her neck are now just starting to slightly irritate her throat …
