Kim was in the BAA Intro Agility Final, and I just lost it. They close the rings for the afternoon and everybody gathers around to watch -- the worst thing for me was that the Qualifier I mentioned above was for this final, and was in the morning, so I knew she could beat all the dogs she was against! Not only that but it was a great course for Kim, but I was so tense ... poor dog! Crufts, strangely, I didn't have a problem with, I didn't get nervous at all. I can't think why, I'd have thought it would be worse as I was in a team so other people were relying on me! Emma - I heard about the panic attacks, I hope you're ok! :( Sounds terrible.

Emma – I heard about the panic attacks, I hope you’re ok! :( Sounds terrible.

I dont think I could ever cope with going to Crufts to do agility or obedience in the main arenas - I'd have a nervous breakdown. Pip was in the Masters final back in march. They close all the rings so people can watch and they have a big seating area next to the ring they use - I nearly had kittens when I saw the row of faces. I kept telling myself "dont look at the people" (didnt help that I'd just fallen over in another ring, lol) I’m the same.
