Agility
Six months ago I thought Bren would never do agility.
Today he did a perfect clear (admittedly on a course that suited him, without many complex turns) in training, and ran fast down lines of jumps. He is doing weaves on his own, at 17 months, and he only started doing them at all a few weeks back. He will never be really fast, never be really, really enthusiastic, but he works because I ask him to work, and he is starting to like it. He's still working below the height he will have to work at in competition, even in BAA where, because he is over 25 kilos, he can compete at midi, but that's okay. He is still very young.
In other news, we had defrosted some chipolita sausages for tonight's pasta. When we got home we couldn't find them - we still haven't, but the bag they were in, in pieces, was under Ina's bed. Our cats are looking smug.
