Vlog | Judging at Dig It Dogs Winter Series Agility Show
So here is my vlog from Sunday. It’s a very short and sweet vlog of my day at a Dig It Show, judging in the morning and then mooching around in the afternoon. I realised that I hardly filmed Guinness during … Continue reading
Give paw and agility training
This morning I opened the first window of my chocolate advent calendar and then opened door number 1 of Guinness’ Wainwrights calendar. I was surprised to see not just one treat but a little handful of small salmon treats. Perfect … Continue reading

My first ever vlog! Go easy on me. I thought I’d do something different and try vlogging throughout the day at Shrewsbury, rather than just writing about it afterwards and filming my runs. Let me know what you think! I’m … Continue reading
Our Fitness Plan
I’m lazy. There I said it! To be honest I’ve never tried to hide it. As well as being lazy, I’m also extremely busy (odd combination I know!). Therefore I really struggle to implement and stick to a fitness plan! More … Continue reading
What is age but a number?
Today is Guinness’ 6th birthday! He’ll be getting lots of fuss, long walks and fun! 6 feels pretty old, but the truth is he still runs around the place like a hooligan, he still plays all day and sleeps all … Continue reading
Laughs, cheers & a bunch of lovely people!

Nausea, Eliminations & Achievements
On Sunday 17th May, still recovering from a very dodgy tummy the day before, and being fuelled by only a few mouthfuls of cornflakes, I rocked up to my first show of the year! Not just the year, but our … Continue reading
