Sprint Dog Trials have finally kicked off again in WA and this year the girls are having a go first!
Last Friday was Amren's first official baggy chase trial. Just squeezing into the over 45cm category, she came away with 35 points on night one, with plenty of speed still in the tank! As she understands the game, I think her speed will increase.

This was also Rune's first Sprint. Rune has done lure coursing before, but doesn't like to run away from me. With Sprint she can run towards me, and I'm hopeful that with some time and confidence, she will eventually decide that she is happy to do lure coursing again. Rune also just squeezed into the over 45cm category, and earned 34 points on her first Sprint night.

We are back again this Friday for more sprinting fun! 🤩

Thanks Jodie Grieve Photographer for the photos of the girls as always 🥰

Last weekend Amren and Rune were entered in the Dogs West State Trick Test.
This was Amren's first try at a tricks trial and she did amazing! A couple of little mistakes in the starters class meant she didn't pass this time but I'm sure she will be amazing next time!

Rune was back after about 2 years off and came away with a pass in Novice Tricks.

Many thanks to Ash from Crimson Phoenix for the photos 🥰

After winning reserve last year, Sorin decided to go one up and went on to win the top award 🤩

Thank you to everyone who cheered us on when the final paddles were raised, and to every single person who came to congratulate us personally. Thanks to those who came to my rescue and helping with the armfuls of prizes I was struggling to hold 🤣 A big thank you to all of the sponsors for the incredible prizes (I'm still working through them 😱) and of course thank you to the COTB Working Party for another amazing event.
As always a big thanks to Jodie for the special memories and always taking the best photos 🥰

Definitely one for the memory bank! 🥰🥰

Amren had a massive Saturday, with two shows before her first attempt at Rally Novice!

She did great in the shows, under international judges, being awarded Reserve B***h Challenge at both shows.

Moving to the Rally ring, she did great considering her lack of experience, showing moments of gorgeous connection, and following instructions the whole way around. She finished on a respectable score of 91/100 with a smile on her face. Im looking forward to trying again soon!

2025 Perth Royal Show

Very happy with the dogs who spent all day meeting and greeting the public.

Ryze Dog class of breed for both shows
Amren class of breed for both shows
Sorin Neuter best of breed for both shows

This was Amren's first Royal Show, and she did great with the crowds.
Ryze was in his element with all the belly rubs. And Sorin was happy to take the rest!

This year, we will be at the Perth Royal Show on Thursday, October 2nd for the Working Dog group conformation shows.
You can see the Aussies strutting their stuff for about 40mins at around 10am and again at around 2.45pm

Between these times, you'll be able to meet the dogs in the pavilion and ask any questions you might have about the breed, and plenty of other working dog breeds.

Outside on the performance field, hoopers will be running with dogs of all levels testing their abilities on the courses!

Feel free to swing through the dog pavilion for a chat, Sorin will be ready and waiting for his pats!

We had our last Sledding face for the season last weekend.
Ryze had a great first season, and will move out of Novice into a more experienced class next year.
I decided to enter Sorin and Rune into a non-competitive class for a fun run together. This was Rune's first time racing, and Sorins first time in front of a bike in a race scenario. Both of them ran so well, they're a perfect team.

Now we start back into summer sport activities!

The youngsters had another great time at the local single heat sledding event.
Ryze competed again in Novice scooter and finished but did not place this time.
This was our last required race in Novice, but we will see out the season in Novice class before moving into something else next season.
We've really loved our Novice races, we've had such a huge Novice class competing this year and everyone is amazing! Ryze certainly has a couple of friends he loves to race with! Most notable is the little whippet who he would happily race with forever.

Amren had her first try in front of the scooter after racing had finished. She will absolutely have a great time once she has a bit more confidence 🥰🥰

We spent a wet weekend camping in Jarrahwood last weekend so Ryze could play one of his favourite games, Dryland sledding.
A new sport for me and him this year, we have entered a few races in the novice class. Ryze managed to come in at 2nd place even with a couple of cheeky puddle dips 🤣

The girls spent the morning at a herding double header trial.
After over 2 years off, Rune and I had a try at pretrial and she tried really hard to get it right! She got 1 pass out of two and had a lovely time!

Amren had her very first trial today, at just about 10 months old, and achieved two passes and her
