Whizzy wins at her first show

After a few months of deliberating i entered Whizzy for her first freestyle competition in novice. Although i entered Westglen i still wasn't sure if i would actually work her but after working her in the hall she seemed quite confident so i opted to compete.

Even though i have now worked many dogs in this sport i still find it very nerve wracking the first time you put a new dog into the ring. Until you have been in there you don't know how the dog will react to the environment, handlers nerves or the music system.

I need not have worried as Whizzy took everything in her stride and performed well, if a little enthusiastic at times ! I was delighted to win her first novice on her first appearance in the ring and it is a lovely start to my Australia trip which i am about to embark on.

Many thanks to everyone who has left comments or sent emails congratulating us on our win they are all most appreciated.
