It's Christmas!

We had great fun last night at the Tynewater Christmas PartiesWe had a relay race using the weave poles, tunnel, cones and hula hoops and included some singing!  There was retrieve a bonio, musical chairs, best party trick and best fancy dress.


Here are some photos

Kennel Club Good Citizen

December 1st saw three of the class feel prepared enough to go forward to take their test for the Kennel Club Good Citizen.  Audrey and Flath completed the Bronze Award and Moira with Gambit and Les with Fly completed Silver.  We are very proud of all 3 and they will go onto the Tynewater Hall of fame once we get the website sorted for photos!

The Beginners class did their test too on the 1st and all were brilliant.  It is so satisfying to see little Belle be able to join in with the group now and bark just for the sheer hell of it rather than fear.  Little Oscar has amazed his owner as he isn't fearful at all.  That's the value of small classes and suffcient training support to provided one-to-one where required.

Christmas party this week as postponed last week due to the weather.  Looking forward to it!
