Hi Guys
I've just had another competition on the weekend and was proud of my girls. On Saturday my border collie Inka passed 8 out of 8 runs so this was the first time that I've had 100% success rate. Inka also got 5 first places 2 seconds and a 4th. Xena wasnt too good she only got two passes out of 6 with 2 seconds. Two runs she was naughty one run was totally my fault and one run was just something happened she thought she was suppose to go right realized that we were going leftchanged body direction in mid flight and her leg got the bar and she dropped it.
Couldnt remember if I told you before but sorry if I did but we had a runoff for team selection and Xena is representing South Australia in August at the agility Nationals Yahhhhhhh
cheers

Well done Danni and all the dogs!!

God you all must be very tired, but very pleased with yourselves.
Congrats, for the wins and placings as well as representing S.A all the best.

your girls are really going well for you you must be so proud of them. now representing South Australia is a big thing to be asked to do and i hope the excitement and nerves on the big day does not pass from you to the dogs but i think you could handle it i would be a nervous wreck and it would pass to my dogs lol anyway WELL DONE

Wow Danni I'm sooo jealous, but smiling like mad for you. You & your dogs are wonderful, I'd love to see you working at a trial some time. Don't know if we could ever do it, Izzi's to nervous but Pebbles is showing a lot of promise & I'd probably freeze. Now what was I on about, oh yes that's right, CONGRATULATIONS you, & your dogs, are champions keep up the good work.

Thanks guys. This is actually my 6th time in representing SA. Xena has done it 5 times and Inka twice. Its quite exciting. You really dont know what will happen. We have yet to win the team but this year we have a pretty good team. Now all they have to do is actually get it correct on the day with a fast speed. I have had few problems with my girls and have tried them on the bushflower 'confid'and it helped getting them confident with things. Worth a try with Izzy
cheers

I'll give anything a try, could you give me more details, like what is it & where to get. I've been trying to get a thunder CD for Izzi as well, the new one was about $70 & one on ebay $15 but could only do on line deposit & we don't do that. I'll just be patient & keep working with her, guess Izzi's just a bit more sensitive than Pebbles . Pebbles is going great, she might only be in grade 1 at dog school but she's doing all the grade 4 work at home, she'll stand/stay while I go about 8 feet away & tell her to drop then stand then sit . So proud of my dud Ozzy Shepherd & know Izzi will get better, I just get frustrated. Sorry Danni this is your brag I'll get my own space, do you get the feeling I'm a bit attached to my girls . OK gone now, but I'll be back

Hi Dogz6
You get them from the Health Food Shop. They're like Barch Flowers. It's natural. My friend told me to take out half and put in another bottle and fill with water it makes it stronger. I found it helped my girls get out of there shell and stop worrying about everything. I'm thinking of putting it for my pup Gabby and she is the biggest woose of all time. I just put 7 drops in there dinner at night time. Xena use to just squeeze it into her mouth. It takes awhile to work. At the moment I'm using Cognis for focus and clarity for the border collie. I did run out and couldnt be bothered to get more drops. Went away to Whyalla and boy did I have problems with her last weekend she qualified 8 out of 8 runs so it obviously got her focused alright. Dee day will be Saturday to see if the bugger does her sit stay. Getting sick of scores of 197 and 198 for her to lay down.
cheers
Danni
