Gosh - where to start? Oh yes, let's have a post about Rally!
So, sometime in Jan 2016 Mum said to me one day "fancy going to play with some new doggy mates?" Crazy question - bring it on Ma!! Folks I'm sad to tell you HER definition of "play with" is not the same as mine. There was I picturing a glorious romp... not a bit of it. We went to this building called a hall. There were six dogs and eight humans. We all had to stay with our human and learn to do different things when asked, but to ignore each other. Well, I ask you! My mum's smart though - she brought me a delicious frozen Kong to slurp on when I got bored, but she's crafty 'cos she tied it to her chair so I couldn't throw it and chase it.
Anyway, we decided it was a nice group and went every week until one day we all got certificates. Then Chris (that's the leader) invited some of us to join a new club called Rally Rockers. We did and we now do this thing called "Rally obedience" and it's huge fun. I get ever so excited when we arrive and can't wait for our turn to do a course or learn a new sign.
Me and Mum are a good team but sometimes she gets it wrong and sometimes I do. Here are some photos from Rally.
