Happy Birthday Raven!
Been back in Perth nearly a week now and have finally found the time to update my blog. I forewarn of much euphoric happiness in this post because yes, our trip was just that good. Better even than the Victorian Nationals last year (Even better than winning three events and making three finals!). We left …
Cypher has a win in the rain…
and other dog related updates.So when I last updated I had explained about the process/procedure for our attack on Raven's lymphoma. A few things have passed since then. First of all the Gosnells Agility trial on Saturday the 22nd. It was a good night in terms of passes and runs, Cypher ran clear in three …
Sometimes…
Sometimes the world is just shit. A little shout out to a fine film by the name of Pay It Forward (go watch it if you haven’t) but also a pretty good summation of my reaction after getting off the phone to Ken Wyatt (Raven’s Oncologist) Thursday afternoon. As my gut instinct told me, Raven’s …

GSDA Trial Photos
These photos are thanks to Paul Burton - see his website here;http://www.pbase.com/pbphotoswa/caninecapersTaken of Raven October 20th 2007. This was the run where she kept all her bars up, did the distance challenge with ease, I got to all the right places and was where I meant to be and she went into the 2nd gap …
Perth Royal 2007
Well the Royal Show started yesterday here in Perth. For those of you who don’t know the Royal is probably one of the bigger events on the calendar. It is one of the big three I suppose, up there with the State Titles and the Western Classic. It is a massive agricultural show that also …
New Toy
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 …
