We are very excited about the 2009 Shows and are ready to get back our and play:
Obedience, Agility, Conformation, Rally & Herding are all on the schedule
LET THE TRIALING BEGIN:
Pat, Laura and Friends traveled to their first agility trial of the year.

January 9th, 10th & 11th
Laura and Miah obtianed their 2nd leg towards their OA
Laura and Sage obtained their 12th leg in Ex B JWW.
Pat and Flutter has loads of fun. Considering the rocky start to the show ... we had a wonderful time getting together with friends and playing with our dogs.
Well -- it's clear that time has gotten away from us. There has been much trailing and no updating -- here is a summary of what we have done so far this year.
