It is great to note that two Beagles have been selected to compete in the Inter-Regional Team Obedience at Crufts this year, one for the Northern team, and one for Wales. Both hounds are filling the Beginner spots in their respective teams. Wishing Good Luck to both of them.
Having met a few Beagles at Obedience Classes, I know how much work those owners must have done to reach that standard. Congratulations to them and I hope they do really well.
Is great to see different breeds doing well in competitive obedience. Im sure they will do their owners proud.
Yes, me too, but being Beagles, anything could happen on the day. See Youtube. Mia the Beagle's Agility round at Westminster!
I've just looked at her round - the crowd loved it didn't they! I think the interest she took in her surroundings just showed how intelligent she is!
Missed everything. Horrid boys outside yelling at Tikva and I went out on my chair - and got her caught up in the wheels.
Tikki is fine but I do not know how I did not strangle her. Screamed and a driver stopped so somehow he lifted my chair so I could unclip her - she will not run off - then he had to half tip over the chair to unwind the tether - and that chair is heavy. I was stupid - only had to go half way up the ramp and would normally grab my crutches and not go on my chair but somehow thought the chair would look more effective. Nearly strangling my baby in the process
What a relief that she's OK. And thank goodness there was a knight in shining armour to come to the rescue.
It was not a young man either - he had just driven from the macolet and heard me screaming. But he had to lift my chair for me to unclip her - I knew she would not go run run - then tip the chair on to its side to unwind the tether from the wheel where it had caught round. I can usually manage to get part way up the ramp on my crutches but I did not grab them and just drove out. I do not use my chair indoors, or my crutches, since Nir fitted strong grab handles on all doorways, and I just swing from one to the other - it is easier. But I could have strangled Tikva because she was so tight caught I could not even unclip her. Sorry - gone way off topic. Please forgive me.
