Suddenly become very warm, with long light evenings. We’ve started going back up to Digley for longer walks, it’s lovely.
Feels very much like summer, which means I feel like we should be at agility. For all the issues Dylan and I are suddenly having I can’t wait to get back to competitions. It’s a bit weird; we had a great winter of training, but it’s fallen apart very quickly which suggests I’m probably doing something wrong but I don’t know what. Dyl’s contacts aren’t as strong as they were, jumping isn’t as good … we have to start work on confidence building all over again.
Dylan is honest, loyal, loving, thoughtful, and he tries so hard all the time. He takes agility very very seriously, he has fun but he finds it kind of offensive if I try to take away the seriousness from him. I wish I could get him to be a little less serious and a little more like the cheeky dog he is at home, but I can accept that he doesn’t think that’s a good approach.
We have a couple more weeks training before our next agility competition, so we’ll see how it goes.
