WAG Jumpers Champs

We had a good Saturday at WAG jumpers champs show - three clears from three runs and two 5th placings from fairly decent sized classes.
I was pleased with how she ran, still so much to learn and work on, and I know she can go faster! We had a few big wide and slow turns which cost heaps of time and in the 1st run I was sure we were faulted when I called her too hard from a jump and pulled her off it, but luck and a kind judge were on our side and gave us a clear.

Folly chilling out in her crate, with her new pink flamingo toy. She's a real dude at shows and is so far relaxed and laid back and no trouble - fingers crossed this continues.

  5. Wow, doggie steeplechase! Excellent.

    Pepper, did your DWTDS mirror ball ever arrive? It was posted in mid-August and if it didn't, please let mama know as it is insured. At least one of the Malaysian packages arrived already, but a different package we sent to Australia took almost a full month to arrive. Just wondering. Thanks.

  6. Indi is beautiful. Of course not as gorgeous as Pepper. :D Whoever took the pictures did a fantastic job getting great jump shots. You and Pepper did awesome. Congrats on a great show. I'm glad Folly is so laid back so far. :)

  7. Brody does not know how to jump economically or fast..... his speciality is to look pretty whilst jumping :-)
