Its snow joke

Well if you are in the UK you probably have had some of the white stuff around the place. The snow arrived overnight for us and it was quite deep, so i had to clear some grass for little Betty as it was about her height. The snow came just at the wrong time for me as the snow arrived on the Thursday and then i was meant to be in London on Friday. This was for a demo plus re filming the SKY TV Dogumentary programmes titles. Apparently the title sequence we filmed earlier wasn't what SKY wanted so they asked for it to be filmed again. As most of the other main participants were in London they all made it to the filming but i didn't think it was worth the risk so unfortunately my dogs will not now be in the opening titles.
The start of next year is starting to look busy with quite a few workshops both at weekends plus daytime ones at Swindon and Kings Somborne. I'm really looking forward to these sessions as each handler will get a chance to do some individual work on a routine, sequence etc. I did a similar session the other day for a group and really enjoyed working with the one team and trying to get the best out of them.
Due to the cold weather i must admit i have not been out much to do some training on the dogs routines so today i went out with the props to do some much needed practise. I was really pleased with Pogos freestyle routine training and her HTM is OK but i have mainly been concentrating on her freestyle routine. Whizzy is on a bit of a rest from freestyle as she has had a busy year but to keep her brain in gear i thought i would do a bit of HTM with her. I have taught her some of the positions ages ago but found she did not have the drive i wanted so i concentrated on her freestyle. Well i was very impressed with her energy and enthusiasm in her positions and you never know i might think about doing some HTM with her as she has such a nice trotting actions.
If i don't blog again before Christmas may i wish everyone who visits the website and reads this blog a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
