The judge was Jörg Zenner, from Germany. I felt alone beside the 4th jump. I handled this jump poorly and she was just in front of the tunnel, my body aiming right at it!
Agility was fun and fast with many double tunnels. We finish faultlessly and in third place on the podium! I’m proud of this run.
Faultless agility! 3rd place!

The judge was Patrick Tunders, from the Netherlands. On the jumping, we are disqualified by 3 refusals. Kaïa failed to take an S-turn before a tunnel and the line was borderline dangerous, I was worried and looked for too long. My sweater got stuck on the weave pole and I was late for the next jump.
On the agility, the big question was: can Kaïa run on the catwalk without me? We tried and failed.
I have been planning this litter for far too long; it’s time to actually do it! Kaïa is expected to be in heat around May 2025, which means puppies for the summer.
Kaïa
Kaïa is an extraordinary dog who goes above and beyond to please me.
She’s easy to train and down for anything, from Obedience training to intense Agility sessions: she will give 100% of her energy. If I’m not careful, she can work until exhaustion.
And then be at 10% the rest of the time. Kaïa is an “On/Off” dog: she can be calm and composed at home and in public places. Cuddles are mandatory. She can be jealous and doesn’t enjoy sharing her humans with other dogs.
Almost everything I have accomplished with Kaïa is documented here, from our first meeting to the last competition.

Maïky
Why take any chance when you can jump an extra 20cm?
I have known Maïky since the beginning. In 2017, we drove 1200km on a Friday night to pick him up as a puppy, as his owner couldn’t travel at that time.
He is the proud son of Mind The Dog Lycan (Obedience world champion in 2017 and 2018). He’s a lovely dog who is always ready to work. Sometimes a bit stubborn, Maïky always does his best, except when the tunnel is right in front of the first jump—then Maïky prefers the tunnel! He’s a powerful dog who easily navigates agility courses.
He loves humans: you can cuddle for hours. He doesn’t care about other dogs and loves bitches. I have never seen him provoke another dog or start a fight.
