A New Routine!

This morning Millie and I started training for a new performance! It involves a few things Millie hasn't really done before, and stitching the tricks together. Today we started the new bit, which she did well at. Will keep working at it and hopefully before too long we'll have quite a good end product!

Yes, it is a 'golden bone'...

16th July 2017 - Goffs Park Dog Show

We went to a dog show at Goffs Park, but arrived late so only entered one class - Cleverest Dog!

Millie's vet had a stall there and she knows Millie so came over to her and said hello. She was also telling everyone else about her world record!

 My little super dog impressed the judge and everyone else and came 1st again!


She rode her skateboard out the park and lots of people stopped to watch and take photos of her - she's on a roll!

15th July 2017 - Bolnore Dog Show

Millie and I went to a dog show in Bolnore. Millie was a very clever girl and came 1st in Best Trick! She won lots of prizes and everyone was very impressed with her skateboarding!


13th July 2017 - Lost in the Woods!

Someone told me about a nice place to go dog walking, so Millie and I decided to give it a go. It was a beautiful walk and Millie had a good run around. 



The only problem was, on the way back I got completely lost! I thought we had to go one way but that took us nowhere! We ended up going through the woods, and I had to use Google Maps to get us back to the car! The most frustrating part was that when I came back and looked at the photos, I saw exactly where we went wrong! At least I know for next time!

9th July 2017 - RSPCA Fun Dog Show

Millie and I had a good day taking part in the fun dog show at the RSPCA! The judges all recognised her and came to say hello!

We had a successful day, coming 1st in 'My Best Friend', 1st in 'Most Talented Dog' and 4th in Best in Show!




Not only did she manage to win lots of prizes, she also managed to get herself a free ice cream from the ice cream man! I don't know how she does it!

Our First Obedience Show!

On Saturday, Millie and I went to our first proper Kennel Club obedience show! We entered Introductory and Pre-Beginners. We had a running order for Introductory so we did that first. The exercises were play, heel on lead and recall. She did them all very well, though I felt she could do better! They all said she was good. We then had to do the Pre-Beginner stays. Unfortunately Millie broke the Down stay, probably because it was such a different environment with lots of dogs she doesn't know. I decided to do the round with her after anyway for the experience and she wasn't too bad. We had a bit of a break before the Introductory stays and I walked Millie around for a bit. She did the stays and we went for the presentation. We won Introductory which was excellent, especially for her first show! 



We went dog training early last night, and ended up doing the class before outside as well as our own class. It was good practise and Millie got to be demo dog again!



We also got some cards from our class for our win!
