Blast to the Past...Ish :)

Aw gee, did the weekend ever go by fast!  It was a nice one, however.  Relaxing and chilled for a change.  Atta be :) .

On Saturday, we headed out to Wentworth to the ski swap, and got our season passes :) . Jessica brought Blurr along for some socialization. It was nice to be back at my favorite winter place!  On our way back, we stopped at Masstown Market and got ice-cream and frozen yogurts <3 .  I got strawberry frozen yogurt, it's  one of the yummiest things ever.  Just sayin' .  (Actually, it's the same stuff they had up in Ontario when we were there for Nationals :) ). Go try some, I dare you!  :P


After we were home for a while, and I took Storm out to play, Jessica and I went up to my grandmothers house to help her wrap some presents for our cousins.  :) It was really nice to spend time there!  We we're up in the attic too, so we hauled out some old dresses and were trying them on :):):)!  Just so you know, that's a lot, a lot of fun! <3  We got back home around 11:00, hahah.


Today, we didn't do much either.  I took Storm out for a good ol' session of disc and he caught everything.  EVERY-THING! Yes, a good disc dog he is! :) <3 He brought them back quickly too, without chewing!  Score!


Today, Jessica and I walked back up to Nan's house and tried on some more clothess.  Then, she took us to Tim Hortons for a treat and drove us back home :) .  Love her! <3


I had to wash Storm off when I got home because he was muddy after our session of disc!  He seriously looks like a completely different dog.  No lie.  :P  Now I'm going to do some crate games!  That will be fun...Meeka loves the fact that she gets to eat.


Storm's barking at me now, so have a nice evening.  Laterrrrrrrrrrr .

Slick & Quick

So, last Saturday we were at the disc dog trial in Norton, NB!  Let me put it quick; IT WAS AWESOME! (Minus the getting up at 4:00am)  Anyhow, yeah it was so fun!  Storm got a placement ribbon in every event competing against 23 dogs!  Like a Boss ;) hahah.

There were two trials in the one day. In each trial (for us) there was Novice Single Disc (Round one and two) and the 'fun' event Disc off (didn't count for anything, but still lots of fun!)  In his first round of single disc, he got  11 pts 2/4 catches and his second round he got 23 pts 4/4 catches for a total of  34 pts and a Q! :)  Good boy! (Not to mention my nice throws, lol .)  Then there was Disc Off 2 minute round, he got 9/10 catches!! Mean ol' Andre had to come beat us with Mr. Crash though :( . Haah, jk, it's okay Andre .... ish .  We tied with Whiplash and had to do "Sudden Death" whoever didn't catch, we won that so we got second! :)

In the second trial, we didn't do AS well in Single disc and didn't Q but still got 3/4 catches the first round and the second round... :S 1/3 eek! owell, baby dog :) .  Total of 19 pts anyways.... The second disc off wasn't as good as the first either but still caught lots....he was tired okay :P .  Can't remember the exact score but; hey, I remember'd this much.

Ribbon and Placements:
4th and a Q in Trial 1 Novice Single Disc,  2nd in Trial 1 Disc off, 10th in Trial 2 Novice Single Disc and 9th in Trial 2 Disc off!  Not too shabby at all! :)  So much improvement from last year!! I am one proud momma <3 :)


 Handsome Boy <3

That's about it! Seeyah, take care cause I care <3

♥ Meet Meeka ♥

Cutie <3

This is our oldest dog, Meeka.  :) <3  We got her in 2007 from our local S.P.C.A .  We think she is a lab/border collie cross...usually we just say 'All Canadian' .  She's a really good little girl.  And she's in the Little Moe's Paws for Fun show.  She loves performing in that!!!


She also competes in dog agility trials (usually in Truro, Dartmouth and New Brunswick) and this year, I was lucky to get the opportunity to take her to Dog Agility Nationals in Oro, Ontario . :) That was an amazing experience for us all, especially since we really only started 2 years ago! (Andre Landry and Ace came along with us too. My dad drove. :P ) It was a really great trip and I hope we get the opportunity to do it all again! 


OH! I forgot!! Oopsie :P .  Just a while ago, The Atlantic Terrier Association put on a CKC (Canadian Kennel Club) Rally O trial at The Paws for Fun Canine Center.  Usually, the CKC doesn't allow mixed breed dogs in their trials but this was their first time!  Meeka was THE FIRST  mixed breed dog to ever get a CKC Q!!! How cool is that ?!!?!??!!!!  Then, in the second trial of the day she got ANOTHER! Yay Meeka!  I know, she rocks :) <3 .


So, uhm.. that's about it. Peace ♥

New Things

Well, I like trying new things every once in a while so I thought I might as well make a blog. :) Not really sure if it'll ever get read but whatever.  Everything's worth a shot, eh?!

I'm happy it's Friday.  Tonight we're going to agility class at H.E.A.T which will be nice.  Practice some agility, probably throw some disc's too. AND!, Talk to everyone we haven't seen in what feels like forever!  SO MUCH FUN!

There's a disc dog competition in Norton, N.B this Saturday. :)  We're going to head down tomorrow morning bright and early!  At least we FINALLY got our RPT (Retrieval Proficiency Test, first title you need to collect points, place and Qualify) so we won't have to hope for that ever again!  Big relief actually....it took Storm eight tries and he finally got it on his ninth.  Even though two of them we're so freakin' close!  HE HAS IT NOW SO NO MORE COMPLAINING!  Well, except that we can't go in the Santa Claus Parade with Paws For Fun because of it...next time, I hope!

Well, I better go get things ready for tonight and tomorrow. Have a nice evening, and an even better weekend. ♥ :)
