Well I think this years fun agility class was by far my favourite class ever!! I had such a great bunch of people and dogs and we had the best laughs along the way.

Every single dog did amazing in some way whether it be master of impulse control (Ripp), loose lead and weave poles (Go & Ferghal), fastest short jumps with a clear round (Jax), biggest jump in confidence (Little Luna), best 'double tunnel runs' (Reggie & Ripp 😂) and of course, not forgetting the proudest little Mini Poodle that ever lived.... Gia. Gia was the ballerina of the group!

She jumped as though someone pressed pause in midair and she stopped and stood to attention like a well trained little soldier 😂

I'm very glad I had a couple of little helpers (owners kids 😉) to help choose all the winners yesterday but a big well done to them all.

Overall Best in Class Winner GIA 🏆
1st runner up - RIPP
2nd runner up - LUNA
3rd runner up - REGGIE

I will miss this bunch and hope to see you all again one day

Unfortunately Pickle and Maverick are sorely disappointed as I've had to break it to them that I don't have time to ferry them to auditions and cater to their celebrity whims 🤣

Please DO NOT think you know better.. and walk or exercise your dogs on this heat!!!!
Its absolutely shocking the sheer stupidity of people I've witnessed yesterday and today walking dogs when its been hovering around 30 degrees!!!!

I WILL stop you and I will tell you face to face to get your dog home and into the shade or cool

Please also stop draping wet towels over your dogs!! The towels may be wet & cool for a short time, but will inevitably then trap heat 🥵 making them even HOTTER

COOL them with paddling pools, a wet or cold towel to lay their bellies on and under their armpits .

Not their backs!!!

If you're desperate to walk them head out early morning while its still below 20°

Honestly!! Ive had people say " naw my dog loves this weather' to " i think I know my own dog" ( as it was panting and gasping for air walking on 30° pavements)

Dont be a d*** !!!

🥵🤬😏
