Cynosport Day 2.
Wow. A other amazing day. Standard run was a killer corse, and it not so gently murdered lots of GRAT teams, soi was thrilled to get out with just ONE refusal with Tru. Wow. The course was easier for not so driven dogs, so Biz ended up CLEAN, but abit slow. I was totally out of gas as well, long pretty hot, but fun day ( Read more... ) -
Cynosport 2014" day 1
Well, I said I wanted to keep track of things at Cynosport 2014 (I sometimes wonder if I have early Alzheimer's) so here I go. If I sound like I'm bragging in these posts, well maybe I am, damn, I'm so stoked about my runs today! Ten ill get to the grumpy stuff, which of course, since I had a grand day, doesn't matter!

New journey
Today I had my first session with a Personal Trainer. Her name is Jennifer, she is young, svelt, and...has a border collie! Most of you know I've been battling a bad back/and or hip for a while now, and NOW it's horrid. I have tried massage, chiro, infrared, had X-rays, heat, ice, you name, it.

Oh no we didn't
Love RAT trials at Elma, love it better when it's not pouring rain. Started out with Master standard on Saturday...and as you can see, Tru started out'normal'...until the third obstacle, about the top of the dog walk...and it was tough going from there. I've never had a fearful dog, and Tru has never been fearful in the ring except at Corvallis ( Read more... ) -
Still hangin...
After the sadness of freaky Tru at the Corvallis trial, I went to Portland to be with Alysa as she had surgery to remove some bad cells from her cervix. It all went well, and Rob and I tortured her with our craziness, which made her WANT to be put under to get away from us :) poor thing...I turn into a nut when I'm in a hospital, cracking stupid ( Read more... ) -
Ho hum
Weeeel...the Corvallis curse hit us again this year, hard and heavy.
As many of you remember, the circus came to town...3 years ago with lions, tigers and/or bears at the fairground arena. Tru WAS NOT a fan of the circus! He was terrified of the smell of something, as we're many other dogs. Tru WOULD NOT run in the left hand arena, no way. The right ( Read more... ) -
Dune-it
I have been trying to stay on my running regiment...ugh...SO hard when you are THIS age...but I keep plodding along. I have a goal...to RUN 3 miles in the SAND DUNES. It's a BIG goal...hard as hell...but a goal I would LOVE to ACHIEVE at this age. I'm doing the 'Couch to 5K'...and feel if I can do this in the DUNES, I can DO IT ANYWHERE. So now I' ( Read more... )
