This weekend, we were in France for an agility competition. I am not happy with my performance on Saturday. We got disqualified on all three courses.

The judge was Florie Steen from France.

After a good night in the tent with Kaïa, Sunday was much better: we won the two agility but got disqualified on the jumping.

Sadly, we did not make any faultless runs. But signatures are just the cherry on top of a delicious cake.

The judge was Frederic Lorette from France.

We didn’t get any signatures, but it was a great competition. I don’t know what happened on the first agility. It was a bit messy, probably because of the 2 hours journey.

We managed to beat Kaïa’s personal speed record on the first jumping. She reached 6.27 m/s for the first time!

She now understands the job. It’s time to up the difficulty. I like this course because you can work on multiple things at once.

Even with inexperienced dogs, you can split this course into small workshops.

Judge was Marleen Haeneefstingels from Belgium.

After a 3-hour journey, we arrived at Thalfang for a 3-day competition! We also enjoyed Germany’s countryside with a 7.5 km hike. Beautiful country.

This time, we bring home the first signature in grade 2! It is only the second competition at this level for Kaïa (excluding Opens). 5 more to go!

Last Friday, we did a photoshoot with Laure Cuvellier.

Today, I received the pictures, and they are just amazing.
