What do you do on a weekend off ?

Well I'm not sure where the summer has gone as it only feels like a few weeks ago we started doing the outside demos again but actually it was back in May when i started the arena shows. I have just done the last displays of the outside season so now its only workshops or displays inside.
It seems the last few weeks everytime we have done demos there has been some sort of animal excrement in the ring which some of the dogs found very tasty : ). There was a new one to their menu last weekend which was deer dung, i wish someone would freeze dry rabbit. horse or deer dung as it must be so tasty.
The last display was for the Animal health trust Gala day www.aht.org.uk where we met up with Elaine Hill and her sheepdog display as well as the Rockwood dog display team. Our last display in the afternoon went so well i think it might have been one of the best we have done all season. Its hard to know why some displays go better than others but it just one of those things i think plus of course the environment you are in.
The last weekend of September will see me teaching in Sweden, i have not been there before so it will be good to meet some new freestylers. I will be getting back late on Sunday night and then having to get up early to go to Colchester in order to film the opening titles of the Sky Tv show Dogumentary. They have decided to use my dogs in the opening sequence so fingers crossed the dogs do their thing. Heaven knows what this programme will be like, i have a feeling i will be cringing at points and that's just when i come onto the screen !
