Brand new n eagerly anticipated event in d K9 calendar with challenging trials n enticing games lined up 2 showcase our natural n quirky talents. Theme: ‘It's a Carnival!’ ... loosely translated = Party 4 Dogs!
Trials
1st time dat Agility n OB trials r being held together. OB trials encompass pre-novice till open levels. Agility will b running novice n basic jumpers levels. Basic jumpers is another exciting off-shoot of agility sport n as d name suggests, d course is set at a minimal difficulty level n on leash runs r permitted 2 convince all agility fans 2 hv a go.
2 encourage dog sports in d country, registration fees r set at a nominal RM10 per trial n top 3 teams at each level will bring home d trophies n prizes. D organisers certainly dun believe in charging exorbitant trial fees, which is cool.

C U There!!!
So wat trials did u n Jojo register for?
shirley,
i think jojo wil gv it a miss, rite?
no no, she is very important, unless more dogs can participate in flyball.. haha.
russell join the agility trial, jojo join the jumpers class. but i m prepared they will just run away..
At d moment, 6 dogs hv registered for Jumpers mini n 6 for maxi. For Novice, 5 dogs for mini n 5 for maxi. So all 4 classes will hv 3 trophies/ prizes up for grabs.
BU park will be damp. Last minute training in wet weather ...
I hope it doesn't rain on that day. If it does, we'll skip the competitions and games...sad but what to do...?
Oh good, not much people join the competitions. Well, there's a big chance for Amber to win a trophy, I hope...
hi, saw u at the dog carnival yesterday. U all really "GENG" la, so smart with all the tricks. hopefully i can b like u all.
I like ur blog, the combination r great, post, pic & music...I love it.
woof~woof
Hi Benjamin!
Oh, what tricks? I can't remember...LOL! Hehe, didn't see you there lah. Too many dogs around. Thanks Ben! Wow, you've grown up alot ha..saw a picture of you when you were young. You must be Molly's sibling??? A collie mix.
Hi Ben, thks for dropping by. U look like a Collie JRT mix ... both breeds learn pretty fast. Am sure u cn pick up on tricks fairly well with enuf pratice.
Aiyoh, Amber didn't do well yesterday. Sad...sad. When the next petnyou carnival comes, i won't join the Ob competition or we'll end up missing the other activities. Didn't get a chance to watch you and Groovy dance too. Only got a glimpse of Groovy going thru your legs, that's about it...Once again, sad...sad.

Saw d results sheet n Amber had d highest marks in most exercises. Wld hv won novice class if not for recall, so dun feel downhearted. A little practice makes perfect.
Agility is her 1st time n she's only just started off leash runs. If she hasnt run a 15 obstacle course b4 n regularly jump d maxi height, u really cant expect too much.
Games r only dogs like us who arent obedient at all, so v just play d fool ... haha
Neh, I'm fine...But deffinately I won't join OB comp again. Amber & i would rather participate in "FUN" games not something that's too serious. Yeah she did get full marks for the rest and the highest for heel free but failed becoz of her recall. It was too hot then plus, my mother was standing beside her, so Amber turned around and ran towards her & Faith. She could have gotten 1st place. I wasn't expecting much from Amber but I wsn't expecting her to not jump over easy hurdles & go thru the tunnel. She's good at it! But I guess, it was a different environment and equipment. nevermind, there's always a next time...
Sorry, I meant my mother was standing behind her not beside her..
melisha,
shirley's dog oso got a habit of running to her spouse.....so that day, shirley ask him not to come n distract her dogs.....good idea, isn't it?
Hi Amanda!
Yeah saw Russel ran towards the lake while when he's doing the agility...
hi Melissa,
take it easy, join whatever you feel like it, as long as you re happy and enjoy. from the score sheet, amber really have a great potential on ob, thumb up on the great effort you had put in. its alwiz great we can share on our mistakes so to do better in future.
yea, russell like sakai when he see a lake, lucky the trial not started yet. i m trying hard to social my dogs more so that they can get used to the crowd as well. :)
Hiya
Yeah you're right...But I'll give it a break for the OB comp. So how did Russell and Jojo do?
they did well and i'm very enjoy the trial. both still need work harder to get more focus to perform better in d crowd. if you hv any tips do share with us. btw, i reward russell a dog bed basket..haha.
Wah run to lake also got bed basket, very generous lah u ... haha
Both runs were pretty good:
Russell 53s + 1 fault, 3rd place
Jojo 49s + 1 fault, missed 3rd place by 4s.
wow.. jojo hv better run than me!!! Lucky she scare the basket.. hee hee
wah...pacco juz manage to beat 4s....so close man...
btw, will pet-n-you post d pic n result @ d website?
That's good to hear Shirley...Well done! Actually Amber's usually concentrating on her bouncy rubbery ball so it's very easy to make her do whatever I want her to do. Anyway, Amber just started learning the tire last week then the last will be the weave pole. Ooooo.....difficult!
Will post up pics.
Official results already posted, c http://www.petnyou.com.my/files/Aacscoresheet%20results.doc
Yeap saw the results! Gggrrrr....! Amber's a loser! LOL.....
fawn, is 14s la.. not 4s aiseh
Based purely on time alone is only 4s diff. Include faults (+5 Jojo, -5 Wind), then 14s.
Jojo.. you have to work harder then..
btw fawn, do u plan to add a chatbox?
Yup, hv to copy from ur blog ... no time to write up yet.
