Life after Crufts

Well Crufts seems such a long time ago, its now time to get back into training and arranging the diary for the rest of the year. Details of new workshops will soon be on the website for Sweden, Bridgewater and a couple of others if there are places avaliable. Bookings are already coming in for 2011 which seems wrong as im sure christmas was only two weeks ago!! i suppose having a busy life means time goes quickly and in only a few weeks i will be off teaching in Australia, fingers crossed the jet lag is not as bad as last time.

The main item on my mind at the moment is what routines will Pogo do next ? I already have a long list of things i want to teach her as of course with the last few months being focused on Crufts you dont want to teach her anything new. I know if i dont start now on the new stuff time will again run away with me.

It was interesting watching the various Crufts finals back online especially when you see moves I did first with my dogs in the Uk many years ago. I think care needs to be taken with some of the moves that are being done now that they are not dangerous for the dog as the last thing the sport needs is for dog to get injured while performing.

Im slowly getting around to putting up some video of Pogos Crufts routines but some others have already put several versions of Pogos surf routine on youtube. The HTM routine will have to be put to different music as Lets face the music and dance is one of the tracks the Youtube will not allow.

Having had this last weekend off it was nice to get out in the New Forest walking the dogs. Betty decided to see if she can walk on water for the first time, luckily the water was not too deep !
