So Raven is doing excellently well right now. Last Tuesday her WBC was up over 6, she got her dose of chemo and was right as rain the next day. She had an absolute blast on the weekend reverting right back to her young feral self, being a complete b&^%h to me on the start …

Weekly Update
So no news for a while – but that’s a good thing. We went to the trial Sunday and Raven was knocking bars, sliding contacts, barking her head off and face planting after jumps….and I just smiled through all of it! The old Raven is resurfacing and boy does she feel good! She only had …
Trial today
Only took Raven to the trial today. Cypher is having a break fo a weekend or two. I had entered Raven in a couple of runs and decided to play it by ear. She was certainly well enough today so we went - it was an afternoon trial again. Her Masters Agility run confirmed how …
Everyday IS a Good Day
Here we are at Wednesday, a week and a half after Raven’s diagnosis. So far I am very pleased with how she is going, there’s room for even more progress but that would be like a lottery win I think. She had her 2nd chemotherapy treatment Monday. I took her into work on Monday morning, …
Raven’s BIG Day
Raven goes in for chemo and a marrow aspirate today. It's 7am right now and I am wondering what exactly her day will be like when I take her into Murdoch and leave her there. It sounds horrible "leave her there", but according to a number of sources and basic logic really it would be …
Why Tunnels Should Not Be Run Sideways
Raven came to a complete stop out this tunnel, onlookers said they could see her running up the side of the tunnel. I am wondering how I can alter this in training (she rarely goes as fast in training and therefore rarely comes off second best with tunnel exits) or that hopefully this experience (which …
Adelaide…the first weekend
I actually wrote the below post in Adelaide on the laptop but couldn't log in to blogger to load it so here it is now....We arrived in Adelaide on the Friday the 27th to a brisk wind but no rain, though apparently it had poured the day before and was scheduled to pour for the …
CAWA State Titles Wrap Up
So last weekend (Friday night and Saturday) was the CAWA State Agility titles. For such a small state we had a good entry of over 500 runs across the two trials. Friday evening went well for me. I had Cypher in Open Jumping first up and he did a nice run for a 9th place …

Raven has a win :-)
Tonight was Perth Training’s Agility and Jumping Trial. We definitely fared a bit better this Saturday than last! Raven was a star again and took 1st place in Masters Agility. It wasn’t smooth sailing in a number of places but her speed compensated for that. We had a brilliant run in Open Jumping apart from …
